I know this is an old post but I hope it's still good and would like the pdf of the Emu book. Is that possible?

I am in fact trying to figure out how to start a poultry club in our area. We are close to San Antonio, Texas so any suggestions, help, reference, and so on would be greatly appreciated. I would love to have a club and bring a show to our area. We don't have any close and we have quite a few...

I have a friend that is incubating eggs for the first time. She placed them in yesterday. When she went to turn them today she noticed the shells went from an almost white color to a darker cream color. Anyone know what could cause this? It's a homemade incubator and she is manually turning...

I don't know why but our birds don't molt as much as I see in the many pics posted on the www. Guess this summer we will try and set up some way to keep them cooler

We are in Texas also. Our birds are laying like crazy. We are getting at least a dozen or more every day. Now in the summer they will quit laying.

Wow Emu. I only know one other person that does anything Emu near me, in Texas. We love our two babies. One girl and one boy. They are coming up on 1 year old in March so no eggs yet. I think we need to wait til after they are 2 years old correct? Their eggs are so beautiful

We tossed in a new bantam and a fresh laid jersey giant egg in so we'll see what we get. The bantams are the only purebreed. Warming up the second incubator for lockdown of the first three eggs in the next week or so.

Been off the grid for awhile. We have been busy doing poultry shows and not hatching. It's a new year so we thought we'd try our hand at hatching some of our bantam show birds. We have 2 bantam Phoenix and 1 standard light brown egg due to hatch Jan 19th. The light brown will be a surprise...

Congrats on your babies. They are so pretty aren't they

Well we have 11 that have survived over a week after their arrival. We started with 19. We just finished cleaning pasty butt from some. It so scary because they are so little. I'm so afraid anything I do is going to hurt them. I was careful not to get much of their backside wet. Crossing my...

I want to know how you can tell that the Phoenix is a pullet? We have 11 golden Phoenix bantams and I'd like to know what to look for as they grow to tell male from female. It's driving us crazy trying to see any difference. We have all golden but some are super brown and range to very light...

I know this is an d thread and hoping for a possible reply. I have golden Phoenix chicks from boggy bottoms and was wondering if there is any way to guess their gender at a very young age? Some have the blue feet, some are light in color and some are darker some have a stripe all the way down...

They have been moving around the box because I'll look at different times and they are in places they weren't. I gave them electrolyte water from a syringe to make sure they got water and they drank some. These are so little. I don't know much about them. We have all large fowl. They seem to...

Hey all I received 19 bantam phoenix from a breeder. 2 died in shipment, then another 4 over the past two days. I can't figure out what's wrong. They all look fine then all of a sudden they start wobbling can't walk then die in hours. It's not wry neck I know that when I see it. I'm down to 13...

Hey there everyone We just received 15 bantam golden phoenix chicks. I noticed that some have dark legs and others light. Does that given any indication as to what gender they may be? I've heard several different ways of telling by stripes on their back etc but I cant tell a difference...

I don't have any stores close to me that have selenium. I picked up multi vitamins that have vitamin E and selenium, put I through a grinder and mixed it in save a chick. Gave my little baby some via a syringe. All of you here think that should work? Any help is appreciated. I can't attach...

Oh most definately. We are doing these local ones to get our feet wet. If it goes good and my daughter enjoys it she wants to show Phoenix so we'll research everything. Thank you very much
