Hi I don’t know anyone in TX that has them. I know several other breeders around the country. I just have one imprinted male. They are amazing birds!! Usual price range is $1,000-1500 each depending on who you get them from and what age

yes, they are gorgeous I know a guy who owns a wildlife park maybe he would sell me some of his do those require permits?

I fed the ones he had they are so gentle and reserved not food crazy like emus lol and also if you don't mind would you please send some pictures of your male

I bought some birds from them a few years back and had no trouble I picked them up at Cleveland Hopkins airport and they were in good shape on arrival .

Is there a permit for those you have to have

A lot cheaper than some places I seen them for sure some hatcheries had them for like 2000 or more
