Beautiful Emerald green & Black Emu egg for Hatching or Crafts

[flgardengirl]

Could I put that thing in a regular styrofoam incubator and hand turn it? How long do you incubate them for and at what temp?

 

[wolftracks]

Yes!

Somebody share some hatching info on them and any other info for that matter.

Hey is there an Emu thread on BYC?

Hi Guys, yes you can incubate them in a styro bator, I have 2 in a hovabator now. I hand turn them 3 times a day or when ever I walk past... hehe. Incubation temps are around 97 degrees and humidity 33-40 up until 3 days before hatch, stop turning then up to 50. Takes 45-54 days typically. Yep, their is a hatching thread for Emu around here some where........

I use to carve the eggs at one time.... haven't had the time in a few years... but they are very pretty.

Do they get lonesome if you only hatch out one chick at a time? This is so tempting. I get over to Orange Park, FL twice a week to take my dd to class

Very close to Middleburg.....

Darn. I was successfully avoiding bidding on eggs until now....
