-'''Guineafowls''' are small [[Domestic animal|domestic]] poultry commonly available to [[Dwarf|dwarven]] civilizations. Male guineafowl are called ''guineacocks'', females ''guineahens''; their chicks are called ''keets''.
-Being roughly half the size of a common [[chicken]], guineafowl are at the lower limit of [[butcher]]able creatures. About half of the fully-grown animals will only produce a [[skull]] when slaughtered, no [[meat]], [[fat]] or [[skin]]. Guineafowl are more useful in [[egg production]], where even though the larger, meatier [[turkey]] also produce more [[egg]]s, a guineafowl will reach maturity in a single year, meaning offspring will hit full egg-producing stride at a faster rate. Further, it is easy to embark with both or more types of domestic bird if egg production will be critical to your food supply.
-Keep in mind that, like with many domestic animals, you're probably going to have a few arrive as the pets of [[migrants]].
-Some dwarves [[Preferences|like]] guineafowls for their ''social nature''.
