Breed: Lavender Guinea
APA: No
Egg Color: Dark and Spotted
Egg Production: 60-100 small eggs per season.
Breed Facts: The guinea makes a very good watch dog and will let you know if an intruder is around. By "intruder" that can mean anything from a dog, opossum or nothing at all. They are also known to be good tick and bug eaters. Guninea fowl are hard to sex by site but males and females do make two different distinct calls.
Available seasonally starting in March. We are accepting a limited number of pre-orders now.
We feed only the best chemical free certified organic feed from day one!
Lavender Guinea Hatching Eggs
Shipping on Hatching Eggs
We ship hatching eggs Monday through Wednesday, depending on when the hens lay and the weather. We strive to ship within 24 hours of the egg being laid. Eggs that are older than 48 hours go in the incubator, to the farmers market or the food bank. We don’t have the ability to store and keep eggs.
Hatching Eggs are shipped via UPS unless directed otherwise. The option is available for expedited at an additional charge. UPS does not have x-ray equipment so there is no possibility your eggs will be exposed during transit.
It is highly advised that west coast customers take the optional upgrade to UPS 2-Day Shipping, especially during the high heat summer months.
They have arrived!
Once your eggs arrive let them “rest” inside in a carton with the pointy end down largest end up. Do not put cold eggs into an incubator they will crack.Eggs ship from Alabama, where it is extremely humid, eggs are collected throughout the day and transfered to a climate controlled room (with 40% relative humidity) where they are either packed and shipped or set to hatch. Even with this limited time before leaving it is possible your eggs will have a smaller air cell than eggs produced in more arid climates. You should adjust your incubating settings accordingly for your method of incubation. We utilize the dry hatching method.
