Possible Guinea Eggs in "Quail" Batch?

[Cheyen]

Good luck and let us know what happens! I was thinking that they might be some new world quail eggs, but have you looked at other partridges' eggs? I'm not sure how many types there are.

I have no idea, either. I'm completely clueless when it comes to partridge. I didn't even know they were farmable until last night!

Luckily the internet is a wealth of information.

I'm tagging along to watch this. I'm voting Chukar too. I hatched some just over 2 wks ago and the eggs look the same. They are the sweetest little things!
oh and our guineas are beautiful!! We have 7 adults and 5 keets! So yes bias.
Good luck and let us know!

I have 2 male guineas that already lived here when I moved here! I love guineas just wish one of them was a female . . .

ooo you should get more!! They aren't hard to hatch! Just like a chicken egg, but take as long for incubation as a duck egg

Speaking of incubation... How long until I can candle partridge eggs?

I did it at 7 days.
But I'm a what if person. Unless I have an egg I definitely know for sure is rotting, I leave them all in there til all that could hatch do so
And if by some chance you do have guineas, I'd check day 10. I've often had more guinea fertile than I thought at day 7. Actually for either if you don't want to be a candling freak (I am) and be candling them forever, just do day 10.

I got antsy, and decided to candle them a few days early... we have little veins in about half of them!
This is turning into a pretty fun experiment.

Yayyyyy!!!
