Forced To Find Our Farm Animals A New Home!

[@donnaflanagan6612]

Heh Kevin & Rachel. You are pronouncing emu pretty much how we do in Australia (just with your Okie twang😊) It’s our national bird & on the Australian “coat of arms” along with the kangaroo. We use British English as opposed to USA English. Great Britain & New Zealand do the same. We pronounce the letter ”z” as “zed” instead of “zee”, words such as “favour, colour, rumour, humour, paediatrician, haematology etc are pronounced the same as you but with a little different spelling. If emu is googled for pronounciation it usually will come up with the USA version of “ee moo”, we pronounce it “eem you”. They live right across Australia, the dry, arid inner regions, open grasslands, tropical rainforests, alpine regions, coastal scrublands & can even be seen on beaches & cooling off in the sea. Males when raised in a socialised environment tend to be more friendly (like Nugget). When it comes down to it, people can just pronounce it how they feel comfortable. Hope this helps. Take care & cheers🐨🦘🥰

Another Academy award-winning homesteader video! Starring the two Emus, co-starring the Geese ladies and a special appearance by matching white guard dog Mojo!. Another highly entertaining comedy show produced by Kevin and Rachel of Hidden Heights Ozark Studios. Congratulations to all!!! 🎉👍♥️💍💥💦🧠⭐🎊

[@patricelegg7561]

OMG, those EMUS are adorable! Rachel is like a Disney princess with the way the animals trust/love her! We have someone who raises EMUS here on the edge of our small town in Illinois. One summer afternoon 3 adult EMUS escaped their enclosure and made their way to the sports park on game day! As you can imagine it was pandemonium when they ran out on the softball diamond in the middle of a game… the younger kids thought they were dinosaurs! Unfortunately the adults started chasing them, right into the street in front of my truck! Since I am a nature channel nerd and was practice manager of a local veterinary hospital I knew what they were! I pulled my truck across the street to stop traffic, called 911 (traffic/crowd control) and my after hours contact for the County Animal Officer who was familiar with the EMU breeder’s facility. After a 2 hour foot chase through backyards and brambles they made it back safely home to their farm.

[@Creative-Chaos]

I remember reading about a call between a cop and his dispatcher about a "chicken" six feel tall. He was terrified of this giant creature and he didn't know what a EMU was. It was funny to read.

[@kristincolburn7130]

If the faux grass doesn't work for the Emu's, you could try using a non-slip shower mat that has suction cups on the bottom. The Emu's are growing so fast and are absolutely adorable!!!

[@kimfrommn7162]

Thank You for the Great Video!!! The Emu's have certainly gotten bigger!!! Have a Great Week!! 🤗♥️🙏🏼

They are doing so well and growing so fast! A month from now they'll be walking though the water! 💖💖💖

[@muletownman6900]

Mojo heard Rachel say “ow” when the emu pecked her finger and he was coming over to protect Mama. He is such a great dog and friend. The emu’s are definitely funny birds! They are inquisitive but “scary” all at the same time, and their running is the funniest! Millie and the other geese are the loudest! Lol! And by the way we all love ole Skeeter, and all the other farm animals. You guys brighten our day by seeing your days on the farm. God bless you guys!

The Emus have gotten so big!!! I could watch them all day!!! I still love the goats and dogs but the Emus are at that age where they're exploring and learning new things!!! I may have to try that coffee too. All kinds of babies happening around the farm!!! Stay blessed!!! Love you guys!!! ❤🤗🙏🏻 PS You guys need an Ostrich baby from Lester and Jami from Ima Survivor Sanctuary. Daniel is getting one!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@MamaBear6967]

I can’t believe how big the Emu’s are getting. It’s fun to watch them grow. If the artificial grass/rug doesn’t stay down, would it work to use a sander or grinder on the bottom to “roughen” the bottom of the plastic container? Rachel you are so beautiful!!!

[@lindaestok4260]

Wow, the emu's have grown so much so fast. They are adorable. Love the names you've chosen. They now have a great set up and will flourish. What a cute sound they make. I think they're expressing their happiness. Never saw a white emu. It's going to be beautiful when it grows up completely, which will be very soon at the rate they grow. Can't wait to take the journey with them. They are so friendly. Keep up the socialization. ❤️ God Bless You 🙏😀

The Emus are getting big. Maybe when they outgrow this pool, you can research to see if a sand bottom pool would be good. I know Australia is a lot like Arizona and it's almost nothing but dirt. Dirt everywhere..ugh. I loved seeing Mojo running around them and neither being afraid. So fun!

[@absolutelyfroggie4309]

Nothing but dirt? Both Australia and Arizona have many areas that are certainly not just dirt! Australia has dense rain forest areas, swamps and thousands of miles of beach. And there are many areas that are in between - just like Arizona. Have you visited any of the ski resorts in Arizona? Lots of diversity. 🥰🥰🥰

@@absolutelyfroggie4309 I was making a joke about both places which are mostly known for the dryness. My comment wasn't meant to be a serious one. I wash my car and 10 minutes later, it is covered in dirt. Sweep daily, dust daily...it just keeps coming back. 🫣

[@absolutelyfroggie4309]

@@kathyc7284 No worries! Funny thing, even though I live in a green area, it’s terribly dusty in Oregon too! But then we have our dry areas too. Trees, grass and crops have to have dirt to grow in, so I guess we are stuck in a dirt-y world. “”Big Grin””

Do you think for that Rubbermaid container you can put maybe a thin inch layer of sand in the bottom or maybe some very tiny tiny little Pebbles like the kind of pebbles or gravel that are used for aquariums?

[@laurierobertson3504]

You need to get some E6000 from Walmart. That stuff glues everything together, even glass to glass. I learned about it from a crafter THIS SOUTHERN GIRL CAN. She suggests to do a combination of hot glue and E6000 but not to let the glues mix or touch because they will cancel each other out. E6000 takes 24 hrs to cure so maybe get a second "pool" and just peice the leftover fake grass in the second pool,that way the emus can still have the current pool while the second one sets up. The emus definitely look bigger and they so far seem really sweet.

Thanks I'll check it out!

My gosh...the emus got huge! They're so cute...I love the way they ran around the yard...just the way Nugget from Cog Hill used to do when he was younger. They don't need much water to sit in, so no need to fill it all the way up. The deeper water might be scary to them.

In the tub of water you could use a bath mat that has suction cups on the bottom and not have to worry about gluing anything down. The Emus wouldn’t slip and the mat would stay put in the tub.

Kevin & Rachel, I agree about the container for the Emus pool. Looks like they're bonded to each other really well. I think Yonig wanted to investigate their neighbours. How you say what they are is right...don't listen to other Americans, they sound funny calling them eemoos.🤣 He ha he ha.love it...redneck innovation 😆😁😆 Probably would have worked better with electrical tape...but maybe get some silicone & stick it down...might be better with glue bark in the bottom, they might try to eat the turf.🤣🤔They look pretty happy & spoilt.

'Emu eggs are not just pretty to look at, they're nutritious, too! A single emu egg represents the equivalent of about ten regular chicken eggs, and an emu egg contains more of the “good” and less of the “bad” cholesterol than a chicken's egg.' You can feed the whole family on 1 Emu omelet 👍 For the non-slip mat for the Emu pool you might try those suction cup rubber bath tub mats They are such cool birds. I can't wait for them to grow up and hopefully roam free with the goats and other birds

OK. I looked up the word Emu's pronunciation in the dictionary and the "American" version's pronunciation is "ee myoo". In other words, say the letter "e" but however you say it is how your part of the state/country says it and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Jason and Brooke from Cog Hill Farm go through the same thing. Don't worry about how other people say things. We watch you to learn about you and your lifestyle and not to change you into us.
