EMU HATCH ALONG! :D

Me too! after all this time and being lucky enough to have 100% fertility I would be so sad to lose a chick

The chick pipped on the small end AND on the bottom of they egg. I hoped since she pipped on her own she could hatch on her on her own but she inhaled some liquid in the egg and couldn't breath. I assisted her hatch and got the junk out of her air sacs. Her navel was bloody and rough but the yolk was absorbed. I used styptic pow and beta dine. She was shivering a lot (even though she was in a 100 degree brooder) but that has calmed down, I am remaining hopeful.
