I'm in Oregon which is so far away from everyone it's frustrating to say the least. All you with eggs keep saying you don't want to ship. I'm willing to accept the risks if anyone has eggs.

congrats on your emu eggs! Hope you have a very good hatch!

I drive to columbia once a month to swap kids. perhaps you will have an egg available.

So I've calculated Feb. 21st as your hatch date at 54 days incubation....sound right??? I can't wait to see some baby pics!!

p.s. I'm going to live my emu dreams through your hatch as of now!

What kind of incubator do you use to hatch these eggs? I am afraid that the fan will hurt the chicks in mine? Mine is a Hova-bator with turbo fan will it work LOL

ok so everything was going well up until yesterday all of a sudden the thermostat started going crazy when we went to bed it said 96.8 and when we got up we checked the high and lows for the night it said that the temp went to 157 f then down to 88f my wife was getting up every 3 hours to make sure everything was ok and did not see the temp go that high so it must have been sometime during the 3 hours when we were asleep , so in everybody opinion are my chicks dead? what should i do ?

 

[jason_mazzy]

I say wait. and keep an eye on them.

Maybe your thermostat is on the blink and everything is okay
