Could guineafowl be killing other birds?

[animals1981]

My male guinea came from a pigeon loft. They used him and his hen to control bugs and mice. Racing pigeons. THey said this worked much better than chickens.

My guineas have layed a big nest. I found a young hen dead. few days ago.

And now this hundled in the corner new sqab

penn is 100 sq foot, the guineas i found ignored pigeons like they didnt exist, pigeons are fed up high guineas down low. I never have seen any care or aggression

Or is it a rat? A real predator would finish the job i am thinking.

Guineas do attack from the rear and they are feather pullers. It is certainly possible the wound was caused by a guinea.
