I had pheasant bantam crosses! 
"But she's settling in really well, and doesn't seem to realise that she's different from all the other chicks." Good grief. I'd actually be extremely sceptical. The bird looks like a chicken; sometimes they have extra bits.

I've seen pictures of your pheasantum Isla. They were interesting in that they inherited the pheasant wildness.
Apparently the cross is not uncommon in guineafowl.
Feathersite have a bit on this subject too. www.feathersite.com/Poultry/Guineas/BRKGuinHybrid.html
Some of these look similar to the one in the article.
Since they seem to be sterile, I wonder if they would be a good meat bird since they appear to be bigger in size than a hen.
Did you know, that what you thought I said, was not what I meant :S
