What is wrong with my Louis? Video added!

[The Sheriff]

Hey SE! Thanks for asking. Louis still is losing feathers on his back and the bruising is still there. I took these pictures yesterday. I had hubby mow the field down as it was getting too high for safe running at break neck speeds.






I am going to send pics off to an avian vet in CA who knows emus and see what he has to say. I will keep you posted. Thanks for thinking of sweet Louis.

i have to wonder if one of the others has been plucking him.. have you checked the condition of the fallen feathers?

How is Louis, Sheriff?

He is much better. Thanks for asking. I'll get a picture of his back up tomorrow. Looks really funny with just the dark feathers growing in.

Here are pics from this morning.

I looks like I've had his saddle on too tight.
