Meg is now 10 yrs old so she pretty much does as she wishes. I don't work her anymore (much) so she works herself. She would be content to either watch hours of sheepdog videos or watch the livestock in the yard. I never knew she would work birds until I saw her moving strangely one day, like in slow motion. Then I saw a flock of guineas in front of her. With sheep she is very pushy and fast but with the birds she was very very slow and kept a distance. The other day she was obsessing on them through the fence like usual but then I noticed something funny. One guinea was out right by her but she paid him no attention at all. The one's behind the fence were much more interesting for some reason. Meg is a strange one.
She does look at the sheep and goats too however. Nobody likes Walter, the whether goat. NOBODY. Walter thinks he's boss of everyone. He runs the sheep off, he butts the guineas and chickens away and he snubs his nose at the dogs.
Meg does not like that.
And this has got to stop!!!!
I'm really getting tired of cleaning up guinea poop!! I try to make sure they roost on the chicken house, but sometimes they sneak up here or on the dog kennels. They are messy, stinky birds!
