hmmm I don't think so

I know that guinea fowl and chickens can cross it is very rare

 

[annageckos]

Guinea fowl can cross with both chickens and pea fowl, so it may be possible. But it would be highly unlikely that the eggs are fertile.

I tried to check it out, but the listing is gone. What was it?

 

[In His Service]

It was an ad for fertile eggs from a white peacock mating with a chicken.

I have heard or peafowl/chicken hybrids, as well as guinea/chicken and guinea/peafowl crosses. Ive never seen one in person nor do know if they were real, but there are alot of strange things out there. But just because a peafowl is breeding with the chickens doesnt mean that they will be fertile. I mean I have ducks and chickens together and I always see the males mating with the other speices!

But if those eggs are free, I dont really see the harm in someone trying to hatch them out. IMO

Why would you want too??, I have seen pictures of the crosses at least all the chicks if they hatched would be infertile thank goodness.

Here is a link with pictures. http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry/Guineas/BRKGuinHybrid.html
