Is one color worth more than another?
Pearl Gray are the most common guinea and typically sell for a little less than do the other colors.

You can check out the Guinea Farm to see what they sell their colored keets for.
 
Hi Everyone!
I too am having a problem defining guinea keet colors. The parents are all pied guineas (we have 4) or a white (we had 1). The guinea who hatched the clutch of eggs they layed was pied and she hatched 11 with 1 not surviving. We collected the remaining eggs and put the in the incubator to give them a chance if there was going to be any others. 1 hatched of the 4 eggs. We have 13 keets and some are white but the others.... I'm stumped. All the research I have done hasn't really helped. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

*next pictures are of the keets in question
