New to guinea olive eggers and black jersey giants

[Mmmk2020]

No typo! Guinea olive eggers is correct. We're first timers at this so I hope they are what we were told! Yikes! I'll get pictures in the day light tomorrow as all I have are ones of them under the heat lamps. I'll post the black jersey giants too!

Well here are pics of the guinea olive eggers and the black jersey giants. I've only seen pics but they look just like regular guineas??? The
Goe's are apparently 2nd/3rd gen chicken cross? Sterile? True? No idea! Guess we will find out in a few months!!!!

Your 'Guinea olive eggers' are not chickens. They are Guinea fowl a completely different species.

Yes, that's what we have realized. This will be ok for us because of where we live and our coop/roosting capabilities. If they become too much we have several friends and a family owned petting zoo we can re-home them to. It will be an interesting adventure!

There was a woman on BYC who had an accidental guin-hen. It had the size of a guinea but the heart lungs of a smaller chicken. Sadly it died young.
