Is it possible to raise guinea pigs for meat in this region?

Are Peruvian meat guinea breeds available in the U.S., or their North
American counterpart?

I have heard that they are delicious grilled or barbecued or even deep fried
and better tasting than rabbit.

Maybe they are easy to grow and breed without special housing and climate and
disease control.

Could they coexist with laying hens in a pen and house?

Any info about this would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Lawrence
