Chris,

I'm sorta skeptical of inside the ability to coax guinea fowl into nesting inside. David Flint has somehow convinced his birds that the barn they nested inside of...is outside...its nice and great for him. My birds have 2.5 acres of very well fenced yard to run around in and in which to choose decent nest locations and there are plenty of spots for me to place several of my boxy looking nest contraptions...inside of which they can choose to make a nest. That's what I'm shooting for. Indoors or inside a coop nest spots...are difficult and not the norm as many have learned...it'd be great to get something that was perfect for folks with smaller lots and indoor nesting...for me...I'm just trying to keep the eggs within reasonably close proximity so that I can find them easily.
