Not very many people raise guinea fowl because of their strange appearance but guinea fowl have many great qualities. I have raised guinea fowl since I was about 8 or 9 years old. Guinea fowl are a great addition to your farm for a variety of reasons. That is the main reason many people have a few guinea fowl on their farm.
Guinea fowl are very unique because of their appearance.
The most common type of guinea fowl is the Pearl. Pearl Guinea fowl have gray feathers with white dots on the feathers. All guinea fowl have bare heads which gives them their ugly appearance. On the Pearls, the skin of the head is a blue-green sort of the color of a Frankenstein monster. On top of their heads, Guinea fowl have sort of like a hard helmet instead of a comb like a chicken.
