Getting into Emus! Starting with eggs!

[Farmerboy16]

My Emu eggs came in the mail today!!!

The eggs are huge!

The tan egg in the middle is a LF Buff Orpington egg.



I got the Genesis Hovabator running at 97 degrees, how long should I wait before putting the eggs in? The humidity is at 20 percent, is that ok? How often should I weigh them?

Thanks for any help. So excited!!

Congratulations on your Emu eggs.
I can't wait to get mine.
I will also be putting mine in my Hovabator 1588.

Thanks, I had set my eggs on the 15th at 4 pm.

I had borrowed a digital scale from a neighbor, it does lb, oz, and grams!

Egg D- 604 grams

Egg E- 630 grams

Ooh, can't wait until 48 days are over!

Hi..congratulations on the eggs.:yiipchick
Ive been thinking about hatching some emus, however, I have no idea where to order eggs from..

Could you let me know where you got yours?

Thank you much.

I got the eggs off eBay. Here is the link to Emu hatching eggs section- http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=See-All-Categories&_from=R40&_kw=emu+hatching

Thank you much.

you can also buy them directly from Kalaya Emu Estate (where many of us have gotten eggs).. they sell on ebay and also here: http://www.kalayaemuestate.com/catalog_i13009636.html

for shipped eggs it seems to be better that the closer they are to you the better success rate you'll get for hatching
