can I add guineas to rir pen

[freshegg]

Im wondering if I can put 1 yo guineas to my rir hens coop and run? I read guineas are noisy How noisy? how are they to care for and do they eat layer feed?

Guineas can get pretty aggressive with chickens. It may not start that way,but I've noticed that familiarity breeds contempt with them. The layer feed wouldn't be a problem. And yes they can get quite noisy.

ok I guess I wont get them. A man the next town over is giving them away. I dont want my reds hurt. Wish I had room for another coop but that would put them too close to the neighboring house. thanks for replying.
