It's been probably 2 months since I got any guinea eggs. I only have 1 mature layer now due to a mysterious 'drop dead' of the other. After I broke her last broody, she seemed to quit for the year....I was fine with that. I'd had enough of the 'find the nest game' for this year! Temps are cold her in PA....today it' snowing! Anyway, I don't think it's Polly, she hides her nests.....but 2 days ago I found a small guinea egg on the bottom of the coop. Yesterday there were 2. I have several girls hatched this spring....may/june. Technically they are old enough to lay now, but its freezing out!
If these are my new layers, I'm super tempted to hatch them because it would be from my only lavender and I would love to have more for summer laying season. However it may be those unfertilized eggs they somehow know to lay in plain site. I'm very confused by this whole thing!
Any idea what's going on?
