Guinea Fowl eggs
« on: February 08, 2011, 19:38 »
Does anybody know what colour guinea fowl eggs are?   8)  We have 2 guinea fowl in with our hens; we've recently been getting small brown (with a pinkness about them) eggs, they are also very smooth.   Now, amongst the hens there are 4 Light Sussex hens who have only just started laying so there's every chance the small eggs are theirs.   ::)

Thanks for your help  :tongue2:

2 German Shepherds, Kira & Bruin, 4 hybrid chicks Chryssie, Violet, Sweet Pea and Astra.

the ones I hatched were brown with dark brown speckles  :)
Staffies are softer than you think.

To my eyes they are smaller than hens eggs and more pointy.  Try cracking one, the shells are really hard.  :)
 No sign of mine laying at all.
