What breed is she?

[Newclucker91]

Got 3 amerecauna chicks and was offered this mystery bird for free as it didn't sell. She's nice and calm, gets along well with my chicks. What is it though? I wanna say guinea fowl but I'm not sure.

Probably not a guinea. Can you get a picture of her from the side on a level surface with no wire in the way?

Chicken, not guinea fowl.

I'm not sure about the breed.

I think it's a peafowl. They have several on the farm I got them from.

It could well be another Easter egger.

It still looks like a chicken to me, but you are the one seeing it in person and I am just seeing a few photos.

As it grows older, it should become more obvious one way or the other.

100% a chicken.

Since you got it from a farm, it's probably a mixed breed.
