Description

The Royal Purple Guinea is one of the most beautiful Guinea breeds. Its plumage is a dark black color with a unique, iridescent purple sheen, with its wing feathers lightly spotted white. The dark color of the feathers hides the appearance of dirt and dust, maintaining a pristine look. Like all Guinea breeds, the Royal Purple Guinea is a great forager and will pick up harmful bugs everywhere around the garden or lawn without harming the grass or leaves. Guinea fowl are also alert and noisy when threatened, so they are excellent alarm systems for all your birds.

We can not ship guineas to Hawaii.

Cackle Hatchery® guinea keets must be shipped in a separate compartment from all other poultry. We do this because the small keets will peck the toes of other poultry and injure them during shipment.

Cackle Hatchery® ships your baby guinea keet orders May-Aug and it is recommended to order in March and April to secure and reserve your baby keets. We hope you enjoy our guinea fowl breeds and check out our caring for keets.

We can not ship guineas to Hawaii.

    Hardy Guinea

    I ordered 5 of these birds and got an extra. They are a hardy variety. So far they are not agressive like the nreed tends to be. I was hoping for a richer color, but they are still fairly young, about 6 months old. They cast purple in the sunlight. I have 2 roosters and 4 hens. They were quick learners for their roosting area as well.

    Excellent Arrival & growth

    The chicks all arrived in excellent condition and were soon at home in our stock tank turned brooder. They are now in the outdoor pen interacting with our adult birds. They are gaining more color, and all have survived. Hoping DNR can assist in relocation of great horned horned owl once we release the new batch. Have my fingers crossed.
