    Guinea Fowl vs Sapphire Gems?

    We have around 20 or so chickens, and 2 Guinea Fowl named Zee and Ghost. We also have four Sapphire Gem birds. Curly and Jewell are more silver and flat colored, however the other two, Blue and Beta, are much more blue and I suppose, rich in color. For SOME unexplainable reason, the Guinea Fowl...

    Have two remarkable white and greys that need identification!

    Have two remarkable white and greys that need identification!

    I cannot quite figure out. We got them as a Hatchery's Choice from the local Bomgaars in Buffalo Wyoming. If that helps more knowledgeable people research, and all. My father is quite against silkie genes since they're considered more valuable, and "Most breeders wouldn't just let silkies mate...
