The Guinea Fow., or Pintado, was originally brought 

 from Africa. From its peculiar cry it has gained the 

 name of " Come-back." In its wild state it is gregarious, 

 assembling in large flocks in some marshy situation. At 

 night the birds roost on the trees in company, like the 

 Turkey. It is of a restless disposition, which does not 

 leave it in captivity, the bird frequently wandering for 

 several miles from its home. Like the Turkey, the Pin 

 tado lays its eggs in the closest concealment it can find.
