Second attempt to hatch 🐣 Emu eggs is underway! Day 2. Another 48 days to go until we know if we have been successful.
This time we have borrowed the Mother of all incubators.
Fingers crossed 🤞.
Last time was not successful Last attempt but we only had two eggs and perhaps an incubator not up for the job?

Here we are early March, a bit later than normal for the first goose egg of the year. However, for us, this is a GREAT egg. Our little goose who laid this was attacked by a fox a month ago. This perfectly formed egg is the start of the goose laying season for us and the start of Spring! Who knows, this year, apart from hatching out emu eggs …… we may hatch a few geese too. Watch this space. In a couple of weeks, we should have goose eggs for sale. Check out our website for availability: https://chilcotts.farm/produce/local-fresh-goose-eggs/

Ooooh this is eggciting. We are going to hatch out a couple of Emu Eggs.
The colour is quite amazing, and the size incredible. Both looking like huge emeralds. Weighing around 700 grams each, I should imagine quite a meal.
They are now in the incubator, and will be manually turned 3 times a day.
Watch this space. Hopefully this summer we could have emus roaming the field with our geese.
