If it were me, I'd be too busy playing with the little fellow to be taking a picture.

i sooooooooooo NEED pictures here! if for no other reason than to prove to me that it's possible. i have 3 emu eggs in the 'bator and have just passed the halfway mark. all i can tell about these dadgum eggs is that they don't smell funky yet lol

Sorry everybody, I have to buy a new cord tomorrow. In the mean time a second chick hatched! I have lots of photos to post. For those of you who are interested he Emu eggs just fit in the Hovabator and I turned them 4-6 times a day for the first month then was too tired to get up at night and dropped down to 3-4 times a day. On Monday morning, day 49, I was shocked to see the first one peeped. It was looking at a dinosaur in an egg! I started to cry with excitment and anxiety. DH and I set up a heat lamp in a big plastic tub and moved all the eggs. It took about 6 hours for it to hatch. I called home about every 1/2 hour checking. On Wednesday 4 am the second hatched. I do not expect the others to hatch. I promise pics as soon as I can.They are really something special!
