I have a 5-month old Buff Orpington rooster Buttercup who has been raised with 3 guineys, 1 other rooster, and 8 pullets. The guineys are mean to the chickens, for the most part, but when I feed them treats and the guineys get in the way, Buttercup mounts a guiney and just hangs onto the neck. So far he hasn't drawn blook, but isn't this a little odd?

I'm not wild about the guineys since they chase the chickens...they may be re-homed or stewed, once they get a little bigger.

Has anyone seen a rooser mounting a guiney?

Thanks,
Virginia
 
You can get one that is half chicken/half Guinea. There is someone one here that had one called "Miracle"
