I recorded it so you should still be able to watch it on Ustream. Watch the video from 4:06

I'm sure they will. How many do you have in the incubator?

What are we going to do with all of these Emu?

I have a total of 16 eggs.. so far 3 are wiggling... but mine are also spaced out a bit.. so hopefully I have some more wigglers to come!

I figured since all of mine but 1 are shipped eggs I'll be happy if I get a 33% hatch rate.. so far one shipment of three has 2 wigglers.. another shipment of 2 has 0 wigglers.. and a shipment of 1 has a wiggler... so the postal service was kinder to some than they were to others.. time will tell on the rest of the eggs
