    They will not fit, not even close, those eggs are huge. there is a emu farm down the road from me, I know the guy well, I have held them in my hands. They are way way to big for your bator.

    hey everyone I finally got the emu eggs, but the guy that I got them from said they were about a month old, so I said I would just try them. Do you think they have even the smallest chance of hatching?
