RE: UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL WITH OUR GROWING GUINEA FOWL

in #animals7 years ago

Interesting. I've never had guineas before, but I've had turkeys.

I never could find out exactly why they have that extra skin on their faces. It doesn't seem like protection (like a "false eye" on a butterfly or fish), and aside from surely keeping their heads cooler by being "naked," I have no clue what purpose it could serve.

Do you have any ideas?

Not sure, never looked into it yet.
