EmuMom
In the Brooder
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 goal.
I guess my question is, how fragile is that first week? Did I ruin them?
Egg 1 639g desired weight loss 12g/wk actual loss 8g
Egg 2 657g desired weight loss 12g/wk actual loss 11g
Egg 3 540g desired weight loss 10g/wk actual loss 8g
Egg 4 627g desired weight loss 12g/wk actual loss 8g
Egg 5 631g desired weight loss 12g/wk actual loss 9g
Egg 6 634g desired weight loss 12g/wk actual loss 10g
Egg 7 629g desired weight loss 12g/wk actual loss 11g
Egg 8 549g desired weight loss 10g/wk actual loss 6g
Egg 9 637g desired weight loss 12g/wk actual loss 10g
