    Incubator question

    Hey everyone! I'm new to emu and I'm trying to source an incubator with an automatic egg turner. I really only need to hatch 2 (maybe 4 if possible) so would rather not go for a huge cabinet incubator. Thanks!!

    Emu nail trim

    Hi Two months ago I hatched an emu and it's nails have been growing very fast. The nails are long enough that it is starting to turn one of the toes when it walks because it looks like the nail is too long and it doesn't let the emu run properly.

    Emu Or Ostrich For Beginner Ratite Keeper?

    So my biggest question is emu or ostrich and why? My mom prefers ostriches as we went to this private sculpture park and the ostriches were so friendly, but I'm leaning towards emu.
