So my lovely female emu gave me 4 eggs and I decided to hatch them! I read someplace that if the male and female aren't breeding that means no eggs (?)... so I took them and though I would try my luck! This will be the longest hatch of my life. LOL.
I also threw some chicken eggs in for an...
So I finally got my pair of emus. Apparently the male was a pet at some time from what I was told when he was dropped off. He also has a band on his leg.
Anywho...
Recently when I go into the pen, he will walk straight towards me, tuck his chin to his chest and just keep walking to me... As a...
Oh how I would love to land this job. :O) I used to have every fancy smansy chicken there was out there. I bred two different breeds to come up with something cool and outrageous. I had geese, ducks, turkeys, guineas, chickens and peafowl. Then, the unthinkable happened, and my husband got laid...
Wow guys! Thanks for all the information! :o)

Hey guys! I just bought an older model Dickey cabinet incubator and hatcher. It's the wooden model, but i got a heck of a deal on them... I hope. They dont have the digital thermostat on the door, but instead they have one of those turkey thermometer looking things plugged into the side. HAHA...
When I was visiting them this morning, Sedona (my buck) decided he was attracted to me I guess. He did his tongue flapping thing. He freaks me out!!
I found out why his horns are like that. It was a disbudding gone wrong... they grew back deformed that way. I think they look cool! This guy is...
