18 Guinea Hatching Eggs Colorful assortment

[showmesilkies]

The Guinea hens started laying about a month ago and providing more eggs than I need. . Eggs are coming from a mixed color flock that consist of Pearl, White, Slate, Bronze, Royal, and Pied. They are free range, not cooped up, and provided with a high quality feed. This is for 18 fresh eggs.

A bargain. I need a bigger bator. Hoping you have more later on in the spring? You are lucky to find the eggs. Mine laid in random places and you could only find the hen when her mate would 'guard' her.

I allow my broody Silkie hens to raise all my Guinea fowl, I'm lucky enough because the Guinea hens lay in the hen house. I'll have eggs as long as they are laying.

Love the purple in the front! Just curious - why the peepers? Were the pulling feathers out of the silkies? That's the problem I had with my guineas

- and why they went to greener pastures! haha

Yep, the Guineas were aggressive with one another and the Silkies, not so much with the peepers on
