I am currently considering getting guinea fowl since I was told they are good at eating alot of the problem bugs but from the little reading I have done, I thought I should seek more info on the noise and how far they will venture from 'home'.  Don't want to annoy the neighbours and don't want them to end up on the road.

As you have excess I thought you might be able to help with this, I know H is interested but not sure of anyone's area, I am normally a good distance from the majority on this forum but just in case we are in East Yorkshire.

Thanks for any help/tips etc.

I think ponytrap is in Aberdeenshire
pygmy goats, gsd, border collie, scots dumpys, cochins, araucanas, shetland ducks and geese,  marrans, and pea fowl in a pear tree.

If you're Aberdeenshire I might be interested as we just lost one that got caught in the electric netting for the hen run.
Our holding has Anglo Nubian and British Toggenburg goats, Gotland sheep, Franconian Geese, Blue Swedish ducks, a whole load of mongrel hens and two semi-feral children.

Here's another one with Surplus Guinea Fowl - 5 of them, I think two of them are female and
three male ones. There were born in 2011. The price would be £5 each, or £20 for the whole
lot - and we are in Lincolnshire.
Thank you for reading this - and sorry to put this under the same title.

In northern Lincolnshire, DN20 0QZ is the post code. Three males and two females, born in 2011.
£5 each or £20 for the whole lot - the price is negotiable though (: thank you.
