We have 12 acres of fenced pine forest surrounding our house in Northern California. We would like to raise two emus on the property. My questions are:
1: Will the emus be attracted to flowers and have a tendency to destroy flower beds if they're close to the house? Since they will have a lot of room to roam and will have plenty of feed I am hoping not. Has anyone developed a technique to keep them away?
2. We have a large number of oaks that drop a lot of acorns. Will the emus consider this food and if eaten will this cause them any discomfort/illness?
