What is the demeanor of a Emu. Are they as cuddly as they look? Are they even tempered as adults?

everyone who has them that I know of says the same thing.. that they are incredibly nosy and goofy.. they get into every thing.. love to chase everything (not out of meanness.. just to see if they can I think.. lol)

There is a local woman who i bought the last egg from.. she said they are her favorites out of all her critters.. she's had them for about 19 years

 

nothing shiny is safe around them.. so if you love jewelry they would probably not be the best pet..

 

My baby is fascinated by the dogs.. will walk away from me when he/she sees our lab just to go see what he's doing

 

in other news..

one of the chicks has hatched.. they are mutts.. this one is either part polish or lakenvelder

Well guess it just took a bit longer for my eggs to hatch. I had seven more pips, all 7 hatched and one had to be culled :(

 

However I'm now up to 12 peeping birds and I still have 20 eggs in the bator :)
