Pyxis' Emu Chat Thread

Lol, weekly update!

All the eggs are losing pretty much as they should be. The big eggs still haven't wiggled though, which makes me nervous. I know that some eggs never wiggle until they hatch, but being that these are both in the same incubator, I get overly worried there was a heat spike or something that I wasn't aware of that killed them.

But that's probably just me being overly anxious We'll see for sure in about 12 days! Can you believe it's already that close to hatch time?

Looking forward to seeing some babies!

@Pyxis, my 2.5 year old son was standing next to me while I was browsing BYC and he started saying "Quack, quack, quack, quack" over and over. Then I realized, he was doing it in time with your avatar's motions.

@Pyxis only about 8 or 9 days left to go now, right?

It's getting exciting!!

Yep, getting really close now! Still no wiggling from the big eggs, but they still put off heat from the end where the chick is, and I would think if they were dead they wouldn't do that? I guess we'll see. It'll just be a bummer if those two died for some reason.

Fingers crossed all goes well.

Yep! They should hatch sometime around the 9th, though it could take longer than that too.

My friend Richard finally dissected his. All were losing the right weight and held heat at one end. Two were infertile and one had veins but dies really early in incubation.
