With Tuesday being the eggception, our guest guineas have surprised us with an egg gift every day this week.
To be sure we’re taking only freshly laid eggs, Don had the great idea of marking the “old” ones with a Sharpie.
As of last night, we had four fresh guinea eggs in the fridge. Can you tell we’re eggcited?
10/2 Morning Update: Fresh and delicious! We fried up the eggs for breakfast and agreed they were some of the best we’ve ever had. The egg shells were extremely thick – Morning Bray’s resident egg chef (Don) was quite surprised. I heard the first egg bounce off the frying pan as he tried to crack it open!

Have eaten any yet? I wonder what they taste like.
Very cool that you’re getting free bug patrol and free eggs!!

Love the color of the shells. So much nicer than plain old white.

That Don is a sharp one. Anxious to hear how these taste.

I don’t think I’ve ever had any other eggs than chicken eggs.
I’ll be interested to hear how different they taste.

You’d need quite a few of those to make a good-sized omelet, wouldn’t you?
I wonder what guinea fowl eggs taste like. I remember eating fresh duck eggs when I was little, and they had a different taste from hens’ eggs. Now those made OMELETS!
And don’t you think FRESH is always better, no matter what the item?

They really do have a different flavor. And thick shells mean healthy chickens!

Wow, are the eggs a bit different in shape? Or maybe it’s the angle of the photo?
Perhaps the “old” ones will hatch if there are any roosters in the bunch?
Cock-a-doodle-dooooo….
