I decided to share the details for posterity, in case anyone else has a sick emu with similar symptoms and needed a point of reference. Symptoms: He's always been a very small/skinny bird...

    Another shot hatching emu eggs

    so I bought two more eggs but from a different company in New Mexico. I added rice to the incubator to keep the humidity at 47% since humidity here is so high. I got a digital scale this time and they were both losing what they should have been. I’m on day 42 and NO wiggles. When rolled, they...

    Did I ruin my eggs?

    I started 9 emu eggs in a little giant foam incubator. They spent a week in there before my cabinet incubator arrived. The temps and humidity were all over the place. I calculated the desired weight loss per week for each egg based on a 15% total weight loss over 55 days. None of my eggs met the...

    Stuff found on emu egg

    I am on day 36 with incubating an emu egg. It’s set on 96.5 degrees and humidity stays at 48-50%. I added a bowl of water so it wouldn’t lose too much water. When I got home this evening to turn it I noticed stuff was dried on the egg. It doesn’t smell but when I picked it up something literally...
