Guinea fowl + Chickens in the same coop?

I have a MESS of Guineas in with a MESS of Chickens...they do just fine together and I wouldnt keep chickens without my guinea alarm system.

I had to separate my 3 guineas from my chickens about a month ago due to the male guinea attacking, pulling out feathers, and trying to mate the chickens. The chickens were terrified. Before this began, my barred rock couldn't have asked for a better friend than her guinea brother (she was his favorite, and the one I witnessed him try to mate). They had all been together during the day since they were 2 months old, and had been roosting in the same coop since last fall. They are currently living in separate halves of a dual sided coop, and take turns free ranging. The male guinea was heartbroken when I separated them, but all is well now.
