Are my guinea eggs too small to incubate?

Hey All, we ordered guinea eggs online and had 15 hatch in April. They’ve started laying in a nest but these eggs are much smaller than I remember. None are longer than 1.75”. Can I try to incubate them or should I wait until the guineas start laying larger eggs?

Welcome to BYC.

Most people wait a little while. Pullet eggs won't produce very large keets, and they may have other problems. I have no idea how long it takes guineas to properly mature, but I seldom set eggs that are smaller than average.
