Jess are emus really comfortable in snow? What is the lowest temperature they can handle? Do they allow any of emu boys to hatch eggs or just via incubators.

Sheriff (Mary) on "Stella's Social club". has two pair of emus - one of the females has been laying and the male is making efforts at building a nest. Mary so far, has taken the eggs away because she doesn't want

any more emus now. She is in California so I imagine that is plenty warm enough for them. When the four were young, Mary often posted videos of them - just fascinating creatures.

Mrs Oz really wants emus and cassawary.

Cassowaries interesting... For meat for eggs for fun? Or as Guard dogs... Guard Birds...

OK... how do you do the egg? Scramble it first? Toss it is when the water is still in with the noodles? Huh? I need to know!

That old lady sounds like truly impressively sour grapes.

Super sad that she can't be nice to both of her sons and their kids.

As to you,

yep, that is tough!




I suppose its like Pasta Carbonera.... excuse the spelling.... whipped egg tossed in with the noodles the noodles cook it.... not certin but it does cause a thickened sauce...

Now I have to go look it up.

OZ maybe you and Mary could work out an emu egg deal. She knows all about incubating them - and let us know everything that was happening. Her emu videos are priceless. She also has fainting goats, and they are always up to their antics. Oh she also has donkeys and Diana sings - true , I saw video.

Pretty girl Bunny.. and no, can't tell there are braces. You were lucky to be able to get them.

At Disney Land..not in the 70's, will have to hunt for one of those I guess. This is the 80's.

Make sense their natural diets not one I would see being easy to provide. In Australia I know there are feeding stations for them, for some reason... these days probably human encroachment endangering their population or something. Very cool birds
