Help! Emu Eggs Incubating

[Caitlinlm2010]

My Emu eggs incubator malfunctioned and the temp went up to 121°. Im.not sure how long it was like this. Maybe a couple of hours. Will they be able to survive?

Wow. I don't have your answer, hopefully someone else will chime in. How far along are they? Is candling something you can do with emu eggs?

I had my bator do this with duck eggs
Out of 12 I only lost 1. It was 110 for 5-6 hours
But I figured out what caused it
Little giant bator and when adding water it has to be room temp not warm water like I did
The other 11 babies all hatched and are 9 months old now
Hopefully the babies will be okay

I’ll add all I did was take the lid off and let them cool naturally
I didn’t want ti cause a shock
Once everything was cooled I put the lid back on and everything was good after that

I am on day 36 now and still have no signs of life. I will try to remeber to post a end results. I am going to leave them the full term of incubation.

From what I've read this morning, incubation can take 50-60 days. Candling is not possible, however, at about Day 35, you can "whistle" to the eggs and if they are developing, you might be able to feel the chick moving around inside the egg! It's time now, so give it a try!
