Keets perching on the skycoop

I was literally writing about the guinea chicks getting trapped in the greenhouse, at dusk, and I heard some persistent cheeping outside.  I went to check, with a flashlight, and sure enough, there was a keet darting around on the ground.Why?I swung up the light and this greeted me.  She brought them home.  This was the night.  Ok kids.  This is where the grownup guineas sleep.  You aren't keets any more!I just about died laughing, while I ran back to get a camera.  Then I tried to round up the loose keets on the ground, hoping to, I don't know, lift them up into the house?  Obviously there just wasn't room for all of them.I couldn't find the keets, though, they had hidden themselves so well, so I wasn't terribly worried about them overnight. (They were fine).I added more perches, so the house is bristling now, and tonight, they looked much more comfortable.  I even saw the last one fly up from the stock tank, climb over some others to burrow down next to mom:)
