Do guinea fowls and chickens eat the same thing?

Question

i have chickens. i am going to get guinea fowls. can i feed them the same stuff?

Answer 1

Guinea fouls eat seeds, berries, insects and worms.  Chickens eat those things, and more.  The chicks may have a more specialized diet, but I'll bet that they'd be fine eating the same food.  I'd be surprised if you have any problems.

Answer 2

They can both eat chick starter when they are young.Once they get bigger and are able to run free they will add other things to their diet(bugs, berries,seeds, your garden and what ever else they find).I like the fact that Guineas eat ticks.And since ticks are so bad this year I plan on getting a few more myself.
