The Guinea's are home safe

I arrived at the farm this morning about 8am and I noticed that eight guineafowl where still running around loose. I decided to start the days work and when Jose arrived I could ask for his assistance since he has experience handling guineafowl. When Jose arrived he approached me with a smile and a chuckle and reassured me that we would get the rest of the guineafowl before the day was over. After all the chickens and quails where feed and cleaned I was determined to catch the guineafowl by constructing a cage with a cover that I would herd them into. No sooner than I began construction I heard Jose yell out that he just got the all of the guinefowl back into their cage. I asked him what did he do and he told me he spoke Spanish to them and slowly herded them into their cage which had a big bowl of water for them to drink. At this point I made sure there was no way for the guineafowl to escape again because I have learned my lesson. Also some great news last night two more baby goats joined the Dancing Goat Farm so check back soon for more pictures, stories and to see how the City Boy on the Farm is doing.
