Unfortunately, Pip is on her own. The other two eggs didn't hatch. I assume she'll quiet down once she has some friends. The dinos are due to hatch on the 19th or 20th.

I don't think guinea. It was at a farmer's market meant for eating. Which makes you think partridge or quail. I've never heard of guinea eggs being a popular item to eat.
And the eggs don't look right

I guess we'll know soon, even before they hatch. If nothing comes out on the 19th or 20th, you'll have to give em another week!
Although given the different sizes wouldn't it be a hoot if you had both!!

Chukars are partridge (related to pheasant). They grow about to the size of a small bantam.
What are they good for hmmm.. they're cute? They are a game bird so I suppose they can be dinner too.

I'm not sure how to set up alerts, but I get an email when someone replies to a thread I'm subscribed to.
