my Guinea eggs are so small will they hatch?

[KaleDaDuck]

Iv'e noticed something in the new guineas, they started to lay eggs but these eggs are smaller than usual, also the older fowl stopped laying eggs!
i got about 36 eggs in the incubator but will they hatch at all?
please help me!

First time layers tend to lay smaller eggs just like the eggs laid by chicken pullets are normally smaller than those laid by more mature birds.

Another possible reason for smaller eggs would be if your older birds were jumbo guineas and your young guineas are regular guineas.

I have hatched eggs from young guineas without any problems. I have also hatched eggs from chicken pullets without any problems even though many recommend against doing so.

If your eggs are fertile, they should be able to hatch.
