Silver is a Grey American Game X Easter Egger ... turned out to be a "Sex Link" since the mother was "Silver" and the father was "Golden."
To the right you can see a younger Silver Easter Egger Cockeral .. I also have another one that is the same age as the one on the right hand side.

I also have 3 brown easter eggers X Games, Silver's sister and then Edward's ( The other silver cockeral ) 2 other sisters. I "Did" have three, but this morning something killed one ..

are Guineas raised for food birds?? can you use a broody guinea for chicken eggs?

You can eat guineas, but they run around so much they are quiet skinny.

They find most of their food on their own.

I would not recremend a guinea hen for a foster mother, I would use a broody "Chicken" to hatch out guinea eggs .. I've had better luck that way.

I am in love with your place. All my life I have dreamed of living in a place like that..chickens, horses, cows, etc. I would probably add a donkey and a couple of goats. You are soooo lucky!!! I really am jealous. I guess I am lucky I have chickens. Love my chickens! I tell all my friends I'm a chicken farmer now. Does 11 chickens count as a chicken farmer? You're a true farmer! Lucky Lucky You!!!
