What does Min. eggs, Max. eggs and Avg. eggs mean? Eggs per month, season, year or at all? --[[User:Kami|Kami]] 13:25, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

:Per clutch.  These numbers represent how many eggs are laid whenever the animal lays eggs.  The frequency of egg laying is not discussed here as of this writing.  --[[User:Jwest23|Jwest23]] 14:29, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

::I've been wondering about that myself.  Shouldn't be hard to work out... If anyone knows, please add! [[User:Bognor|Bognor]] 14:54, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Any way to change males to females?
 
 
==Domestic Poultry notes==
 
This note could do with being rewritten. I'd do it myself, but I'm having a hell of a time trying to parse what it's trying to say. I think the gist is that only one batch of eggs (that is, one nest) can hatch at a time, and all other batches have their time-until-hatching 'reset' when this happens... which, if true, sounds like it might be a bug, and may also need confirmation (or cite whatever source this conclusion came from). -[[User:Niveras|Niveras]] 13:59, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 
:Mmm.  I'm sure I've had multiple clutches of peacock eggs hatch in a far shorter time period than a few months. [[User:Bognor|Bognor]] 11:09, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
 
:Yep. I just had 6 batches of chicks hatch within 3-4 days game time. [[Special:Contributions/24.49.50.181|24.49.50.181]] 19:13, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

== guineafowl meat ==
 
 
Er, regardless of what the page says, I had a butchered guineacock leave behind 2 meat, 2 fat, a skin and a skull. I suspect that this may just be a matter of  extreme size/muscularity/fatness pushing one bird's size just over the threshold needed to produce any meat at all; if that's what happened, guineafowl meat will probably be a rare occurrence, so not sure whether total edible should be changed from zero. Maybe just a footnote saying it can occur rarely? [[Special:Contributions/218.186.8.11|218.186.8.11]] 03:26, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
 
:Sounds like a likely explanation to me.  I've added a footnote.  Feel free to edit the page as you see fit. [[User:Bognor|Bognor]] 12:56, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
