Heres a question for the bird breeders, how long does the male emu continue his mating behavior? My 2 year old male has been doing his mating dance since December and he is still trying to mate with my husband and my mother, he never does this to me (not that I'm jealous lol) I lay out in the hay pile and he comes and lays cuddled up to me and goes to sleep all happy, but everyone else he pushes on and tries to mate with. Should this behavior stop soon with the changing of the season?
