It's a bit of a drive for you cause the eggs are out by Sally.
 
been there dont the pheasants, thats the only thing I did for months while I was sick was hatch pheasants for my dad, I would brood them two weeks and then he would take them to his place.

Emu would love to do but cant afford them or know what to do with them afterwards unless sell them! I have kids so I dont know how that would work out in the back yard!!

There's somebody out your direction that has emu eggs listed on pennswoods for $25 a piece

To much ventilation?

Benny, position is important when you open them hatching position and the six recognized malpositions Images: click here

as is letting us see pencil marked air cell size

AND if any fluids are in the egg

And what the egg shell looks like ON THE INSIDE

EGGTOPSY REMINDERS FOR EVERYONE

For us to help see what may have gone wrong with the hatch/chick/embryo we would have had to see the aircell marked at least day 18, then before you open up the egg candle again and mark it with a different color. FOLLOW THE ASSIST ARTICLE just in case its alive, If the float test shows the chick is dead, Start by taking the top off the egg as in the assist article, take pics as you go. Take a pic of the membrane over the chick. make sure their is no movement of the chick, wet the membrane get another pic see if you see its beak, open membrane take another pic and see if chick is in the correct position to hatch. see aviagen link for positions and break outs. Head underwing or head down. there is alot that could have gone wrong that can be detected from all of these things. is the chick big and wet, is there green jelly in the egg? is their broken yolk in the egg? and so forth. http://www.aviagen.com/assets/Tech_...os/05HowTo5-BreakOutandAnalyseHatchDebris.pdf
