Good looking babies!
Kathy, so glad you found a home for the boys!
I am a nervous wreck waiting till I get to go pick up my new emus. None of the three hatched so far have the complete bulls eye so it is going to be a total crapshoot for me. Hubby is going to go with me so I will have someone else to blame!
Mary, that boy takes his crowing seriously. Looks like he might pull a hamstring!

I am thinking you probably have a few growing out that will look just like those! I did keep 2 roosters.
Tell me why??? I have no idea! Cody kept the one he liked and I kept the one I like (blue with silver hackles). I think I have a couple girls in the brooder. I sent ALL the rest of the boys and girls to Arkansas.
AND, if Donnie doesn't get here soon ...... his chicks are gonna be gone, too!

True and the boys are said to be the most personable and friendly.

What are the males and females called? I know it is not a rooster or cock or a hen.

What a male emu called?
A male emu does not have any specific term by which it is known. It is just a male emu.
What does the male emu do?
The male emu is the one who incubates the eggs. For the entire time he is sitting on the eggs that (usually) several females have laid, he does not eat or drink, but just stands several times a day...
