Finally, our keets are all grown up and laying their own eggs!
called keets) for our homestead.Last year, @vcelier and @matthewtiii helped contribute to the purchase of some baby Guinea Fowl (
They were so small when we first picked them up. Now, they are much larger, noisier, and able to fly. Today we finally found some of their eggs!
TODAY IS A HAPPY DAY FOR MY PEOPLE!
Since we already know what Duck eggs and Chickens eggs look like, these must be Guinea Fowl eggs! They are a little smaller than Chicken eggs and shaped more like a tear-drop.
The @little-peppers were very excited when they came back from their chores this morning. We had never found any of these before, so it was very cool to finally get some. Now we can either see what they taste like, sell the eggs, or raise more Guinea Fowl. Possibly, we will even try all of those options!
To learn a bit more about Guinea Fowl and why we have ours, you can check my video above!

Guinea fowl head looks like turkey.
Same family I guess.
Thanks and keep on steemin'
Yeah, similarities for sure!
You will find the post very interesting. I don't want to drop the link here so that it won't look like am spamming.
Thanks for sharing this.@papa-pepper. Animals are wonderful to rear and have around. The eggs actually looked the same and its beautiful to behold even after been hatched. I just did a post on starting a small animal farming at home. Talking about my experience at my friend's house.
Guinea Hens can be some of the goofiest birds on the farm. I wanted to let you know that you have been selected as the subject of my new Art Project. I hope you approve @papa-pepper.
Cool man! I'll check it out!
I love your sense of adventure and trying new things. I have followed you for many months and see this in your posts. Again thanks for sharing another one of these new adventures. @papa-pepper
To be candid, I barely could differentiate between Guinea fowl or Duck eggs with that of conventional chickens I see around. Might have consumed all the various egg categories before.
Omg!!! The baby Guinea are so cute.
Super cute eggies. Let us know what they taste like! I've tried chicken and duck but have yet to try quail or guinea eggs.
Also, so funny how such cute chicks turn into such weird looking birds...
They look like turkeys, but just that turkeys are bigger. Are they noisier than turkey.
yes, different sound than Turkeys and irritating sound to me.
Hi papa-pepper,
I wonder how Guinea eggs taste like compare to the chicken eggs.
I thought Guineas were raised mostly to keep the ticks and chiggers population eliminated around the home stead, yes?
Nice teardrop eggs. Perhaps they will go broody on you and you have a nest of up to 40 eggs hatching! Meat is a bit on the gamey side. The eggs, I find are a little richer in flavour than chicken eggs.
Papa 🌶 Jack of all trades. I'm encouraged by your adventures.well done.
Neat. I have never tried guinea-fowl-eggs.
They are quite smaller than the chicken eggs.
Can you tell the difference in taste between the chicken eggs?
Congratulations 😊😊
That's exciting. I can remember when my birds first laid theirs too. I was so excited. I mean my chickens. I can understand how you feel right now.
Noticed a reddish dot at the base of your red thumb Papa. You hurt yourself?
And the homestead is growing fine. Guinea fowl egg is a common egg around here. I love the egg cos of its shape and it also sweet
I can't doubt your post for anything, even without the photo prove.@papa-pepper and his prove... Smile
I am a farmer too, and I hope to become successful in this field as well.
The shape is good, I have never tried guinea bird eggs.
The shape is smaller than chicken eggs,
Do you know the difference of chicken egg taste
