    It's a little sad watching Bert going back into the coup and seeing all but one egg gone and didn't want to leave it. 😪 It has been great watching your family grow up and spending time with the animals. Thank you for sharing this with us.

    As a guide, the incubator will need to be run at a constant temperature of 35.25-35.50C (dry bulb) and a relative humidity of 45-50% [26-27oC] (wet bulb) throughout the first 50 days of incubation. The eggs will require turning a minimum of three times per day. I hope this helps next time!!!

    Emu's look so alien. I loved watching them run with the kids! They might be happier in a larger enclosure, maybe this is why they are not having babies? Might be too small... but I don't know anything about Emu's. They just look like they could use more space. My chickens always want more space though, so I might be projecting lol
