[@patevans3709]

Thank you for pursuing this education about the process of reproduction in emus and for sharing with us! I so appreciate you making responsible decisions about not inter-breeding siblings! If you have knowledge about far too many "professional" dog breeders, you are aware of the negative traits inter-breeding perpetuates. Sadly, their priority is their income, so they do not care for the mother and offspring! Thank you for wanting to protect the species! Even if there are no obvious physical abnormalities, there may be some on the genetic level. I know your nursing education and career are guiding you in caring for the emu eggs! God bless Catherine and Brooke!

[@joycewethington8200]

Brooke also. Got some helpful information about Nugget and Goldie mating and any eggs Goldie lays in the future.

Miss Catherine when I seen them baby chicks all I can think about was when Mary Carl got baby nugget I still to this day love that video. He was so funny growing up. I loved it.

[@BrindaB929]

It’s nice to have a friend who’s always listening and supportive of something that you’re interested in learning more about. I’ve learned so much about emu’s just from what little you’ve learned and shared.

I’m so excited for Katherine to get her an emu! When Brook decided they were not going to let Nugget sit. I immediately thought of Katherine! I ask Brooke to contact her and see if she wanted one. It was just a message like this one. I didn’t actually have a conversation with Brooke. But i was so excited when that is what happened! I have been going through the process with Katherine. I wait for every video with so much excitement that this could be the video we have a baby Emu! It has been a very exciting journey! Thank you for taking us along! We love you!!!!!

[@Aussiegrandma]

I love how you both have become such good friends.

[@melissacollins4716]

Since Emus are native to Australia, I wonder if there are zoos or universities in Australia that you could reach out to for information...maybe the Irwin's? That may be a stretch, but you never know!

It will also help Brooke, now she won’t feel guilty when she pulls Goldie’s eggs. You could see she struggled with pulling them. If the weather had been better she might have let Nugget sit. Now she knows she can’t. So it was a good trip all round

[@marilynhemingway5219]

Any chance one can DNA Goldie and Nugget to see if they are related for sure or not?

[@ggfarms9136]

I’m not sure if Jason and Brooke want to do that or not.

[@KatMcLean-si3vs]

There's nothing like making the ice cream yourself! Yummy.❤

[@ede-jomadden8182]

Oh, thinking about Goldie and Nugget being sibs definitely changes the story and the loss of those eggs isn't such a tragedy, it? I'm wondering if they recognized each other when Goldie arrived. Were they hatched at the same time? Maybe you can 'borrow' either Goldie or Nugget when your chick is old enough to breed. Now, THAT would be quite a story to follow!! Best wishes, Catherine! Looking forward to whatever you decide to do!!

[@ggfarms9136]

Good thinking!!!!

[@ggfarms9136]

@@ede-jomadden8182 I am not positive at all about Nugget and Goldie and still have some eggs left. But only a few. We shall see what happens but I will not be as disappointed at all now

[@etakjam1536]

I remember that video where CHF got Nugget. They went to get 2 emus and while there the owner said there was a third emu available that their little girl had kept in her bedroom and handled since hatching, which made it super friendly. That third baby emu was Nugget and he already had that name from the little girl when they got him. He was so tame that Mary Carl held him in her lap in the car on the way home while the other two stayed in the cage. CHF decided to only keep Nugget and rehome the other two which ended up being called Pepita and Goldie. They were still on little Cog at the time so it made sense to only have one emu. All the baby emus they picked up were about the same size. So unless that place had multiple breeding pairs it seems very likely they were all 3 full siblings. This may also explain why Pepita and Goldie didn't have any successful hatches before Goldie came to the CHF40. Now I won't feel so bad for Nugget not being allowed to sit on the eggs. If they are not likely to be healthy chicks there is no point in letting him try.

[@paulasweeney7358]

It's so fascinating, learning new things, isn't it? I watched a video a few years back, from Zoos Victoria (Australia) about emus and it was incredible. You might want to check it out. I don't recall them talking about breeding them outside of the Zoo, but remember there was a lot of behavioral info. The part where they showed the newly hatched babies following their parents melted my heart. They barely came up to the adult's ankle! Good luck, and I have best wishes that you have a successful hatch (or two) very soon.

[@gafairbanks2434]

If that were to happen, Brooke would need to adopt another unrelated female. I doubt they would.
