I hadn't even read the troubles you were having with hatching the emu egg, I feel awful

I' extremely sorry your having troubles hatching the egg(s) I have ALWAYS had trouble breeding goats, ( It's like I'm cursed to be able to successfully get baby goat lol) I have attempted 6 times to breed my dairy goats bred and tho only time it took,....it was a still birth : ( so I know how heart breaking it is.

hey everyone!

very excited as my two eggs have just arrived! letting them sit and setting up the incubator now.

couple quick questions:
how long should i let them sit before i put em in the incubator? ive heard 8-12 hours
humidity is pretty high here, usually around ~70%. how crucial is a lower (20-30%) for success? any tips on ways to lower?

any help would be much appreciated. happy hatching and good luck to everyone

Hey guys, just hatched one of my emu eggs, the chick looks like it may have a cataract in the bottom of one eye, is this common or maybe an injury on the way out of the shell?
