has anyone ever let a GUINEA HATCH CHICKEN BABIES?

The moorehens were a rescue, I found a nest near the reeds with crows eating the eggs, but I managed to save 3, the pigeons hatched them, then I handraised them (I was 12 LOL) they were taken to a bird sanctuary. It was so funny..... the pigeons kept opening their mouths to feed them

The rail chicks were handraised by me for the first week then I put them under a sebright hen..... she did a great job with them. PS just put some belgian danvers and silver pied guineas under a sebright hen last night, doin great this morning..... the hen has been broody for nearly 8 weeks, so I gave in.

Is that some kind of "Song Bird?" I've never heard of that kind of bird so ...

I tried putting guinea hen eggs under my duckie mom but she kept pushing them out of her nest.........I didn't think she would know the difference.....I am thinking that the eggs may have smelled to much like me or somethingPr
