Anyone knows where I can get some guinea fowl eggs for hatching?

Its just its looking like we've got a broody hen at the mo (hope/pray!) and would like to sit her with some guinea fowl eggs.

Problem is, because of the cold/delayed spring, the person we had some from last year hasn't got any at the moment.

Sooooooo......... anyone know of any guinea-fowl eggs for sale by postal despatch for home hatching, anywhere???

Hope someone can help???

Thanks.

You need to get quite a few - as they are quite difficult to hatch. From my last clutch of 12 I got 6 live keats. You won't get the hatch rate of hens.
