Thanks for sharing the pictures of the house. I loved them. Why were the yellow jackets in the ground? Is that normal where you live?

A few post back you asked what Emu Ranchers do with their eggs or was it chicks???..... They sell them to SS'ers who think they need Emu's. lol

I would go ahead and try the Emu thing... if it doesn't work out, you can drop it off at BBH's

Its not like there hasn't been anything dropped off here before!


Those strays sure have good networking skills. "Go to BBH's and act lost and forlorn, she has good food and she is a chicken when it comes to butchering."

Emus!!

One day when we were coming home from town we seen one out in the bean field down the road. We went back on the quad to see if we could 'herd' it somehow (cmon, its possible, we've herded guineas a mile through a corn field before) but when we got there we couldn't find it at all.

A couple months after that I heard what sounded like 2 emus down by the swamp across the field. I wonder where they are now..

A guy we knew had some emus in with his elk and bison, they stayed in with the same type of fencing we had for our elk, which required very long wooden posts, an auger to dig the holes, and 8-9 foot high fencing. If you can pull that off, I say get emus!

I did have a horrifying experience with emus a couple years ago. I was at the river where we go tubing. The tubing place is on a family's land. You give them $5, they toss you in their truck with a tube, and drive you way up river.
They also raise emus and cows. We pulled out of the river and sat on the bank to have lunch from our cooler. I (having had a few beers) thought the emu looked cool, and offered it a bread crust.

...it chased me into the river and took my whole sandwich.
Gotta tell ya, drunk, disensandwiched, and chased by emus ain't no way to go through life...

And yes, I COMPLETELY deserved what I got.

So watch out for friendly ones, they might be aggressive

Hahahahaha!! There is nothing worse than being drunk and disensandwiched!
