This will be my first attempt at hatching Guineas.....the last hatching of chickens went fairly well....25 eggs, 21 fertile, and one didn't make it after some help. From what I can tell, aside from the difference in days, Guineas are "close" to the same as chickens.....99-100 degrees, take out the turner about two days before hatching. I'm going to go and get something for my humidity tomorrow. Anyway, someone let me know if I'm wrong. I'm doing this for a friend, he gives me hay for my goats and I hatch eggs for him. Have a good day.

Yep they are about the same except for the days. If you need to raise the humidity use a wet wash cloth. That way you don't have to buy anything. I find that my guinea hatch alot faster than my chicks. Good luck!

Thanks a bunch. Although, I should go ahead and get something to tell me the humidity, I really don't have a clue what it is. I'm just a worry-wort about these things I guess. Thanks again.
