First time hatching Emus, some fairly urgent questions

Yep, absolutely lucky. I can't find anything under 40$ per egg right now.
My reptipro type didn't have open/shut vents, and never held temperature right. I don't know how my emu made it, but he's healthy. Decided to take a bath in a 40 degree mud puddle yesterday, the strange bird. Likewise with the bacterial incubator; it only had one vent and no fan, and yet it slowly climbs in temperature -I had to turn it down a couple of times to keep it from cooking my eggs. The new incubator -with fan- is stabilizing now, but I'm not as sure about the air flow from the fan it has; seems weak but better than no fan at all. I also open to turn the eggs and such, and soon will begin the watches for wiggling.
I'm a college student and just got a new job, so I rely on my parents, grandparents [live next door], and younger brother to do some of the turning and other care for me. It's gone well, although I think they all secretly think I'm a bit crazy for my bird collection.
That sounds sad, hopefully you can hatch some for her.
That's good! I hope it hatches out well, I heard recently sloshy feeling can result from aircell problems, which would cause issues at hatching time.
