Pyxis' Emu Chat Thread

Interested to see how my prediction matches the DNA testing.

C went on a very brief outside outing with me today. She got to go because she's shy and very imprinted on me and sticks like glue and I wasn't worried about her taking off from the unfenced backyard. Berrigan will have to wait until I can take him to a fenced area, lol.

Meanwhile Berrigan and his goose got to run around inside for a bit before being returned to their brooder for dinner and a piece of collard greens to play with and eat.

Just to illustrate how stupidly fast goslings grow, here's a picture. Berrigan has height on him because he's all legs and neck, but the gosling is just as long as he is and nearly as tall, and he's heavier too.

I warned you all about the brooder, lol. I cleaned it about ten minutes before this picture. Doesn't take them long.

C is so gorgeous! A good picture for the baby fowl contest if still open.

Squee!! SO CUTE!

Need more pictures, I love to see them

 

[PirateGirl]

So I see that the gosling is growing quickly, but when will your emus be near full grown?

 

[FishMtFarm]

Emus are full grown at about a year old.

I don't think you made a guess on C's gender here Unless I missed it, lol, which is very possible. What was your guess?

 

[lazy gardener]

I was basing my guess on rounded vs. pointed eggs. I think I may have made my prediction after the middle one died, but maybe not. It was when you showed the pics of them, perhaps doing the tilt test.

I think you guessed on 22 and B, but I'm not sure if you guessed for C. Here's a picture of all of them:
