    18 Emu Eggs and 3 Ostrich Eggs going for my first time... I am so "eggcited"!!!

    Hi all. I am at day 44 now. So pretty far into the incubation. I had a family member schedule a trip down to Cali for the week of my hatch ( semi family emergency ) so I won't be around when they are hatching but I will have my husband set up a cam for the hatch so that I can watch it all...

    18 Emu Eggs and 3 Ostrich Eggs going for my first time... I am so "eggcited"!!!

    I have rocking , rolling and wiggling going on. At least 5 of the eggs have some movement. ( watching my husband, daughter and I laying down to watch them was too funny) I have a question about the tapping test. Some of them had the thunk thunk sound and a few others had a tink tink like...

    18 Emu Eggs and 3 Ostrich Eggs going for my first time... I am so "eggcited"!!!

    Hello everyone, Update. Day 35. Egg weights are pretty much on track. I have some in a reptibator and the remainder in my wine-fridge-a-bator. We had a few days of semi lower temps ( 93-94 ish ) We had to take another one out this evening because my nose smelled something mucky and my...

    18 Emu Eggs and 3 Ostrich Eggs going for my first time... I am so "eggcited"!!!

    Hi everyone, Thanks for all of the input. I have not entered into this lightly. We have been doing a LOT of research on them and I do not intend to keep all of them when and if they all hatch. I already have people who are interested in owning them ( not lightheartedly either ) and have the...

    I have been lurking the Emu pages for awhile now and my family and I decided to try our hand at incubating some emu eggs. Currently we raise chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys and what I affectionately call Chinese Ground Parrots ( Silkies ) This all started with my daughters love of the local...

    Oddest hatch ever... early chicks . late chicks.. and a sad experience

    I set a few sets of eggs in multiple incubators with all eggs dated and my phone set to let me know which eggs should be hatching when. I had some that hatched on time from the 10th, a few that were set on the 14th that hatched almost a week early in the turning trays and then when I went to...

    Nevadans?

    Quote: Tumbleweed what kind of chicks are you looking for to replace the ones that you lost ? My daughter has a bunch that we have been raising to sell, I am also incubating right now but I don't have any room in the bator at the moment. You can get a LG one at the feed store for about 50-60.

    19/36 dead chicks- is this normal? :-( how do I ID which breeds died?

    It's been very hard on shipping with chicks right now, I had two orders recently where I had major losses and the hatchery was very willing to help me out afterwards with replacements. Just call them because at times they will just duplicate the order for you. Sorry to hear of the loss... it's...

    Ideal Bantams

    I got two batches of them and sad to say that they did not fare very well. I had HIGH mortality rates however they did credit my order back and I purchased other chicks. The Silkies are pretty ugly. I have pics somewhere that I can send.
