I may have several chicken coops but not all of them have names. Why, you ask? Well, I couldn't find anything that fit for 2 of them!

Obviously we had a discussion about it and I pointed out that yes Guinea fowl actually do need a coop to live in.

The boys look crazy with their wild crests that flop around as they run and the girls just look so fancy to me!  spend a lot of time socializing chicks when they're little and take time to visit them everyday and bring treats...I just never could get the polish to warm up to me!
