Puts a cockerel into perspective!!  8)

Can I assume you are not just an urban keeper? Sorry to be so cheeky, but I keep having flashes of my 'delightful' neighbours.

Here is the next installment of the Emu ....

I am just an urban keeper and the emu isnt for keeps.... incubated for a friend :)  So will not be mostly building new coops thanks NewShoot!!!  ;)  You have seen my setup and can imagine an emu being welcome???  I think I would have nothing left, just a great big bulge in Emus neck!!!

Anyway, for those who are as sad and bored as me.... here is my rocking emu egg!!!

We are on day 50 now..... so not long to go before either hatching :D or nothing :(

Staffies are softer than you think.

Did wonder how your little quails and Seramas would react to a massive great emu stomping round  :lol:  Any news yet - can't wait to see this chick  :D
