Baby emu on the way

Nailing down vax info..will be doing EEE WEE and WNV..any suggestions?

The American Emu Farmers Association recommends a vaccine schedule for WEE and EEE of the following:

"Dr. Tully recommends vaccinating emu chicks starting at 6-8 wks then again at 10-12 wks, with a final injection at 16-18 wks, then every 6 months thereafter. In the face of an outbreak the farmers can booster their birds at that time, says Dr. Tully. For adults that have not been vaccinated they should be vaccinated once, with a booster 3 weeks later, then every 6 months thereafter."

Mine are pretty easy and usually don't even notice the poke (as adults, I mean). I just give them something tasty to hold their attention, poke them, and we're done. Usually they don't even react

Have you had them since babies also? I've seen people on some videos and if they were coming at me crazy I'd be getting tweaky too

Yes, I have Except one male, who I have yet to have to vaccinate, but I'm sure I can get him.
