It may or may not be a guinea egg. It doesn't have the correct shape to be a guinea egg. It appears to be what is known as a "fart" egg. These are typically undersized eggs that normally do not contain a yolk. When such eggs are laid they often do not conform to normal shapes. My current guinea eggs are approximately 2" in length with a diameter of about 1 1/2" at the wide end and taper down to a diameter of about 3/4" at the small end. Eggs from a first time layer have the same relative shape and may be about 1 1/2" in length with the other dimensions correspondingly smaller.
