Anyone know if a good place to sell a pair of emu chicks? They are unsexed.

I recently adopted a 2 week old male emu chick (Karl) as a companion for my 11 month old male emu (Kevin). The person we got Karl from warned us that Kevin will most certainly stomp Karl upon introduction, and we should wait until Karl is older + bigger. However, we have already introduced them...

Emu chick keeps tucking their head underneath herself. She does this seemingly randomly and once she goes back up she goes right back to eating and drinking and pooping and having the zoomies. She’s about 4-5 weeks old. She’s on ratite, emu chick specific feed, gets lots of kale, veggies, fruit...

I don't know if it is an emergency, but I'm concerned. A fresh hatch less than a day has a huge stomach, all my other hatches didn't so I'm not sure. Is it bloat or is egg yolk? Any help or suggestions would be helpful.

I have a 11 day old emu chick, she was fine yesterday, playing and following us around but this morning when I went to feed her I saw her lying on the ground unable to lift her head. I sat with it for an hour and I saw that she couldn’t stand, it seemed like she couldn’t see and when I let it on...

Hi! I have an emu chick, Mundy, that's about two and a half weeks old. I'd tried for nearly two years to hatch emu eggs, and this is my second chick. The first, Peep, injured his neck at two weeks old and was too far in shock for the vet to do anything, so we had to put him down. Naturally, I'm...

Hi there, I have two emu chicks they are about 2 months old. I just found out one of my chicks did not eat too much. It seems really sleepy, less energetic compared to the time when it first arrives at my yard. The excrement contains green, string-like matter, yesterday there was undigested...

G’day everyone I was wondering if anyone who has Emus experience can satisfy my curiosity. I have an Emu chick who constantly shook his head at night when settling down . It was clearly distressing and I thought it might be ear mites but none were found . he also was clear of lice and now he is...

Hey everyone. It’s been a while since I’ve been on this forum! Feels good to be back.😁 So, I have some questions regarding emus. Basically my mum met one a couple weeks ago when she went to collect some live feed for our pets and rescues, and she fell in love with the 5 month old bird she met...

Our 6 wk old emu chick started acting off about 3-4 days ago. She just wasn’t holding her neck/head right. She was eating when I noticed her moving her move slow and drooling while trying to eat, we felt uncomfortable enough to take her to the ER vet where they informed us they had some...

I am currently hatching out 3 emu eggs. The first one started incubation on 3/28, the second on 3/31, and the third on 4/14. I have slowly been weighing them whenever I get the chance but I am unsure of the formula of weight loss on emu eggs. I currently have them in the chicken egg incubator...

Hi, all I am not new to BYC. Had an account 5 or 6 years ago, but deleted my email a year after, making it useless. Oops! I have been on BYH mostly as my herd is what direction my life took. But getting a new species of bird has brought back excitement I haven't felt in a really long time! For...
