Pearl Grey Guinea

Pearl Grey Guineas are usually raised for pest control, foraging, alert behavior, ornamental value, and farmyard utility. They may lay seasonal eggs, but they are not usually chosen as a primary egg-laying bird.

Guinea eggs are smaller than many chicken eggs and have a thick shell. However, customers interested in guineas should choose them mainly for their usefulness outdoors, not for steady egg production.

In addition, guineas have strong flock instincts and often prefer to move together. Because of that, they usually do best when raised in a group rather than as a single bird.
