Introducing chickens to guinea

[Kamurphy89]

I had this little babe come wondering into my garage yesterday. General consensus is that it’s a Guinea fowl. I’ve made a makeshift shelter, but now I I’m trying to identify it and research it’s needs. People have said I should get chickens for companionship , but everything I read is about introducing a guinea into an established chicken flock (not the other way around). Any advice is appreciated (please note this is a temporary shelter)

Take a closer pic so those familiar with keets can tell for sure if it is one. You are correct about it needing a flock. Have you checked with your neighbors to see who owns guineas. When you find the owner they may be willing to sell you another (unless they want it back.

I have checked with all my neighbors (not many … we all have acreage). Anyone who has birds, have chicken and none are missing. I’m new to this, so trust me, I would be willing to rehome for the benefit of the animal. No wild flocks nearby (under close watch from indoors,
I left it out for hours to see if any would flock to it).
