For consumers

Want to cook guinea fowl?

A refined product par excellence, guinea fowl is sold whole, fresh or frozen. Leaner than chicken and rich in protein, it's easy to cook in the oven, in a pan, or on the barbecue.

  • Tender, flavorful and dietetic meat
  • Available whole, fresh or frozen

WHY CHOOSE US

Raised without Vaccines or Antibiotics
1

Egg incubation (28 days)

Guinea fowl eggs are placed in an incubator and hatch after 28 days.

2

Hatchery certified under federal inspection

Over 100,000 guinea fowl keets hatch each year in a certified hatchery under strict federal inspection.

3

Delivery to the breeding farm

When the keets are one day old, they are immediately shipped to the breeding farms.

CANADIAN FARMERS BENEFIT FROM NUMEROUS ADVANTAGES:

Top quality products

Federal certification ensures our facilities meet the highest standards for rearing conditions.

Zero Customs Fees

Not long ago, Canadian guinea fowl farmers had to pick up their keets in the United States.

Very competitive prices

The lower costs are notably linked to proximity and production capacity.
