A video of my baby Ostriches. Very very cute.

There's no way I can know for certain, but I had x-rays done and it appeared to have been soil. I'm not even sure what I can keep them on to place them outside right now. :/

I have the same question about my Emu chicks - lost two out of 10 and I am thinking it was due to impaction.

So cute! Thanks!

I was able to save him, by tubing him with mineral oil and then a formula of olive oil, wheat germ, electrolytes and canned cat food. Just to let you know for the future. It was able to work as a laxative and move the impacted material out of his system.

They are extremely adorable. They fall asleep just like our baby bantam orpington chicks did. What do you plan on doing with them when they grow up?

Ideally, I want to put them in my 2-acre pasture, but I think they might slip through the fencing. We'll have to see what happen as they grow, I may start buying more horse corral panels and make them a setup that way for their own safety.
