Where do I get the stuff for the emu chicks navel? Is it called bentadine? Someone please steer me in the right direction.

You should be able to find betadine most anywhere, my understading is it's commonly sold in tack shops and a pharmacy would carry it as well. If you cannot find it for some reason iodine could be used in a pinch.

Today is day 47. Looks like I MAY get 1 out of 3. Please keep your fingers crossed!

I SO want to see pics of these little guys. If we ever move away from this 1/5 acre, suburban lot, I definitely want emus!

I stop rolling mine on the 11th, both are rocking though one egg is significantly smaller and may require help. The bigger of the two is real fiesty though makes all kinds of a fuss when we roll them.
Good luck with your hatch hunter1hall.

Anything yet hunter1hall?

my smaller one may have quit, it's hard to tell if it's moving or if it just doesn't have enough room to move. one week left of rolling though.
