Abstract

1. Studies on the egg laying pattern of the semi-domesticated helmeted guinea fowl showed that the birds laid eggs between 06.00 and 20.00 h local time (05.00 to 19.00 h GMT). 2. More (67.9%) were laid in the evenings (15.00 to 20.00 h) than at any other period. 3. There were two distinct periods in the reproductive cycle: a breeding season which began in April and ended in September, and a resting or non-breeding period between October and March. 4. Sequence length was predominantly of 4 eggs and July was the month of peak egg production.
