Pyxis' Emu Chat Thread

Pics
Hi to everyone, I´m newbie here. I´m from Czech Republic and this year I´ve decided to hatch some emus (in previous years I did only chickens,ducks, turkeys and geese). Thoug I then have the some expiriences, emus are maybe the most challenging for me, mainly maintance of very low humidity....
Anyway, I have 2 eggs on day 48 and 3 on day 45, some of them wiggling very readily when I whistle, some of them with only slight vibrations.
I can´t wait if they hatch without any problems on this weekend/next week.
Wish me (them) luck!:)

How exciting! Good luck and we'd love to see some photos.

I missed this earlier :) Awesome, congrats! Sounds like you will have a good hatch. You should definitely start your own thread to follow the hatch so people can follow along and you can post lots of pictures! Feel free to drop a link to it in here too if you do make one :)
 
Week five update!

Egg 22 has lost 60 grams, and should have lost 59.5 grams. Right on target, looking good! Egg B has lost 60.9 grams and should have lost 57.4. A little high, still in the safe weight loss zone. Egg A, which I'm 98% certain is a dud, has lost 66.4 grams and should have lost 59.85. So it's a bit high, but actually not as bad as before. Still no tilt or wiggling though.

Egg C is on day 24, and should have lost 48 grams. It's lost 48.9 grams, so it's pretty much dead on as well.
