    Hi Emmanuel,
    Mine have only just started to lay, only had one or two eggs in the hut, they maybe laying in the nettles and hedgerows but haven't found their nest site yet, although could still be too early for my lot as mine are not young guinea fowl.
    Hope you find someone.
    kind regards

    Hi sara,
    Thanks for the reply. I will let you know if I get any but in the main time keep me posted if you find your guinea's egg site.

    Cheers

    The humidity should be around 75-80% humidity for guinea eggs.

    You can tell humidity using a hygrometer which you can purchase from a pet store of in the reptile section of the local department store. You may also be able to find one in the lawn and garden section with the outdoor thermometers.

    Hi,
    Will you be keeping all your keets when hatched?

    Hi Emmanuel,

    If you are still looking for eggs I could post some to you, I sent 24 up to Yorkshire last week and have 24 in my incubator. The fertility rate is good, 2 candled clear(infertile) and 1 stopped developing but the rest are coming along well.

    Hi Emmanuel,

    Always happy to supply hatching eggs when we have them. I ask £1 per egg plus £5.60 p&p for any number up to 24. My Guineas lay 8 eggs per day but we normally lose one or two to rooks etc so 24 is the right amount to get them shipped without being too old. I have a nice mix of colours including white, lavender and royal purple.

    Our birds are only a year old and free range all day and are producing good sized eggs. If you let me know how many you would like and your email address I can send you a Paypal request for payment.

    best regards

    Robert

    Emmanuel

    Hi All,

    I have sent an email to Robert with Emmanuel's details so hopefully he will get in touch soon regarding the eggs.
    Thanks Sarah for sending me the details and taking them off the site for security reasons.
    Kind regards
