What Did We Just Catch Our Emu Doing To Their Eggs?

- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Captured on camera, Brooke witnessed our beloved male emu, Nugget, engaging in strange behavior around the eggs laid by our female emu, Goldie. In the intriguing footage, Nugget's actions leave us puzzled: is he delicately attending to the eggs, indulging in an unexpected snack, or perhaps concealing them? The enigma begs exploration, and I am determined to unravel the mystery behind Nugget's behavior.

Thanks for watching this episode of life on our family farm!
Y'all be good,
Jason, Brooke, MaryCarl, & the entire Cog Squad
Cog Hill Farm
Jason, you may have to give Nugget some parental leave…better take it up with Peaches!!😂
On EmuTube I was watching Nugget's video where he was concerned that farmer Jason keeps messing with his family nest and checking out the eggs because farmers have been known to eat eggs and in his experience, " . . . once the humans start eating eggs it is impossible to break them of the habit so the only thing to do is attempt to get re-homed away from the egg eaters." 😉
LOL!!!!
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
So Jason’s sitting and explaining the situation, nugget comes up a sits down right next to him! Just the best ever…. a delight to see
Agree ❤❤❤❤ I almost teared up! 😊 A man & his emu buddy❤
I think Nugget was caring for the eggs just like he cares for your shoes! Maybe he's always paid such close attention to your shoes because they're (at the toes) shaped like eggs.
I agree, he was cleaning them up before he was required to sit! Goldie won’t tolerate her man not sitting on those eggs!
Jason, Nugget is going to surprise y'all! He will become the best Emu Dad you could ever want. He can't help it, because he has the best role model. 😊
Maybe put a few flakes of straw nearby.
I so totally agree that Jason is the Perfect Role Model for a DaD❤
I think he was trying to move them
@@Tinkergrumpybuns yep, I think maybe he's trying to shield them from the cool rainy weather.
It looked like Honey turned to you when you spoke her name for some love
That explains why he was always cleaning shoes. Practicing to cover and clean eggs. Love love Honey and all of the critters. Y’all do a fantastic job.
Insiteful , interesting comment👍
You upgraded their living quarters so now they all think they're at a spa! Next will be pedicures, manicures & painted nails! LOL! They are all lucky animals to have you & Brook loving them & taking care of them! 🫠🤗
LOL! Yeah they are all ichy and soon will start to shed! Good luck with the Emu hatching. The boss lady obviously loves the new farm!
Lol llooll
My youngest daughter works as a dog groomer. She would happily paint their nails😊
Jason if I remember it correctly Carl and Debbie at IMA SURVIVER SANCTUARY ate a few of their eggs before they decided it was time to sit on the rest of them. Maybe Lester or Jami can explain the reason why.
Could have been one of the older eggs
The way he followed you to the nest says a lot. After you checked the eggs he stood between you and the nest and it looked like he was rustling and puffing up his tail feathers. That might have been an sign that he was protecting the nest.
ps I love your videos. They always make me feel happy.
You are right, I noticed Nugget looking puffy, but didn’t connect the dots!
Have you consider placing a trail camera to watch the eggs? I am glad you brought Jessie and new friend. Looks like Honey and Jessie are becoming good friends. Love your channel.
I was thinking the same thing. A trail camera would be neat to watch.
Jason, even though your Emu's do some interesting or suspicious, be confident that Nugget and Goldy have thousands of years of info hard wired in their brains. It may be the first time for both, however they are part of the vast mystery of creation. I just love when you start showing Nug-Nug attention. The way he melts. First the body then the neck go flat. Such a strong dusplay of comfort and safety. Yes sir. "Ya'll be good".
Hello Jason and Brooke! This is so exciting. I believe Nugget was covering up his future deputies. Shocking to find 10 emerald green eggs. Another shocker was that Peaches enjoyed her brushing. Jesse and Honey getting a brushing and copper too. They want to look beautiful for all the new eggciting eggs! Between the EMU and the Victorian Crown Pigeons this will be an eggciting journey. Hope you all have a S-Peck-tacular day. 🥰🥰
Funtastic days ahead!
Peaches had to make a Jason look like he lied about her and brushing lol
Its awesome that Nuggets taking interest in the nest
Everyone getting a good brushing, Mildred really enjoyed it, coming in for seconds and a 'facial'.
What I think is the awesome side note to the eggs is that you have a lot of people learning and researching emus and their eggs.
As you were looking at the video on your phone and talking, I was watching Nugget. He was waiting for you to love on him. Then he knelt down. So sweet, so sweet.
Edited: I searched on the behavior of the male Emu with the eggs and read that he may have been trying to cover the newest egg laid. It may have been newly laid and he was taking care of it. (So smart)
After zooming in on that video it appears as though Nugget was trying to turn that egg. He definitely was trying to move it.
I wonder if his shoe cleaning is paternal caring for you lolI hope so I love watching baby Emus run and play.
I think Jesse likes having honey around. That little new donkey is so sweet love your videos.
Absolutely. Jessie is totally giving Honey space and allowing her to be loved on, brushed, etc, without any fussing at all. Then when Jason was brushing Honey and Jessie came over and touched noses with Honey at the same time, that is the biggest sign that Jessie is very happy Honey has arrived.
Hello Cog Hill. I hope everyone has a great day today. Thank you for the big smile on my face - each and every time I get to watch and see everyone and everything on the farm 😊
You too!❤️❤️
Jason and the EGGS, the saga continues. Maybe you should sit on them, Jason, just to make sure. (HA)I am sure that Brooke will bring you greens and corn bread. Love this story. And I think those two emus have much more of a story than you know.
Peaches and Nugget both proved you wrong today😂😂🥰🥰
Nugget is now starting to play his parental role. He is checking on the eggs, he is keeping them together after she lays a new egg and trying to cover up the eggs with leaves and other debris after she lays. I think that time of egg laying is coming to an end and he senses that it is going to be his turn to have the eggs and nest the way he wants it. I do believe he will sit. But, I know absolutely nothing about emus, except I love Nugget to pieces. And Goldie is a precious girl and I can’t imagine the two of them not being a pair. I think they will love each other like Gus loves Loretta. I love Goldie and I am so happy that Brooke and Jason changed their mind about getting a 2nd emu. And Nugget now has the most beautiful wife,and she will be a great Mom. Your Texas Neighbor
This is really exciting about the eggs and I’m just so happy that peaches is acting like part of the family and realized brushing is a good thing, and she wanted to be a part of it☮️👏❤️
TY Jason for putting the brushed-out animal hair on the fence for the wild birds.
I love how Nugget sits down beside you to listen the conversation and get loves.
Wow!!! So exciting that Nugget was covering up the eggs. Jason's so funny saying Nugget does not have to explain himself!!! I'm laughing here all by myself.
Peaches is one of a kind!! And eveyone getting a makeover haha
So sweet of Jason to always try to give the animals another chance to see if they have changed their minds about being brushed... he has an innate sense about why peaches was hanging out... the fact that he picked up on that shows how sensitive & caring he is... his desire to give to their wants & needs.
I just L💕VE that about you Jason ⚘️
Jason, I laughed when you said ," hmmm, interesting". You definitely need a Sherlock Holmes hat. WOW, 10 eggs. They were love taps for his babies. Daddy is here and loves you. OXOXO to you and all your family and animals ❣️
Wow 10 eggs. Put a trail cam out there so you can see what happens at night
I was thinking the same since Goldie started laying..😅
Jason, did you turn the water off? You still had the pink hair band on your wrist. 😂
😂🤣😂
Mildred is such a sweetheart 🐮
She would love romping around with Moody, kicking their heels up. Put them together for a trial run and see what happens. The bucks aren’t cutting it. They would have so much fun, together.
The way Nugget was pecking at the eggs , looked like he was cleaning your boots.
So, how about adding some large tree logs for your goats to climb on. It seems like the picnic table just isn't enough to satisfy their urge to climb. You can just pre-plan to align them so you can still drag the pasture when you want to.
That's too funny! I was thinking the exact same thing when he panned out over the goat area. One lonely picnic table just isn't enough for all those energetic goats. There are so many different fun things that can be put out there to entertain them all day long!
I’ve felt that way for a long time. A play structure or mini trampoline. Even some sort of balancing half circle on the ground they can climb on to go back n forth would be fun.
Glad Nugget was. Taking care of the nest. When you were over by the nest he stayed between the nest and you.His "nesting"instents may be kicking in.Nugget loves you all but be careful. Every one seemed to enjoy being brushed even Miss Peaches. Good luck with all the new babies coming God bless you all
Everyone wants love & attention.
All those shoe cleanings Nugget has done over the years was him practicing for the day when he'd need to keep a tidy nest! He's in papa mode now!
Obvs, fantastic to see Nugget engaging with the nest. I believe he's going to set. Fantastic to see more footage of Jessie and Honey. Jessie loves her, you can tell because she doesn't have any mixed feelings about Honey getting attention. And when Jason was brushing Honey, Jessie came over and touched noses with Honey. That is the ULTIMATE sign of friendship. So wonderful to see. They are herd animals, they are made to need others of their own kind. Exhilarating to watch!
He was stimulating the eggs to test for viability.
That's what I think too! I have seen it on other channels and that's what they said too.
@@mimi-yt7gq Exactly. He also looked like he was drumming to them too. Chicks in eggs can hear and they can feel vibrations.
Prolly should place some hay nearby so he can cushion the nest and hide his eggs.
Pamsmith , you are probably right. It is common with most birds that they turn the eggs over so that they develope evenly.
@@sherriecurry4962what noise does a emu makes
Nugget was looking over your shoulder as you were relooking at the video that Brooke sent you. It's like he's checking to see what Brooke caught and if he needed to defend himself, like saying, It wasn't me, I did not cover those eggs. LOL I so hope that he will start sitting. Goldie sure has done her part and now it's time for the Nuggster to hop on those eggs. Wow, 10 eggs that is a lot of eggs plus she may lay even more. If they all hatch, I hope you have lots of friends who want baby emu's. They are so adorable. I am getting excited now to see what Nuggest does and if they all hatch.
I hope some stay with the parents like Lester does at Longhorn Lester’s with his ostriches.
Peaches liked being brushed!❤ Nugget cared for the 10 eggs!❤ Your Siphoning device is so clever! Over the years, I've learned so much about gardening from you!❤❤
Am I the only one talking to the farm kids along with Jason? Love Honey and glad to see everyone getting along.
You are NOT the only one who talks to Jason, Brooke and greet each of the animals along with them! I sure do!
I really wish I could Love on All of them in person!
Nugget was watching the video over your shoulder as if to say it was me daddy! He got tired of trying to tell you so he walked away huffing and puffing. 😂
😂
There you go Jason. You sitting near the eggs and Nugget beside you. Both of you need to take parental leave a book and sit on eggs. Love it.
He truly loves you and it is reciprocated by your love for him.❤
GOOD MORNING COG HILL FARM. JASON YOUR ANIMALS TRUST YOU SO MUCH. THINK THEY’LL LET YOU DO WHAT EVER YOU WANT. BECAUSE THEY KNOW YOU WILL NOT HURT THEM ❤❤❤IT
I have been doing some Emu research. Very interesting information Mr. Google Pants provided. He suggested that Daddy Emu's be provided straw to help with nesting and once Daddy sits down he should be provided drinking water near the nest. Food can be provided but Daddy may or may not eat very much while sitting. The eggs should not be messed with or moved by humans because Goldie and Nugget chose that spot to lay the eggs. Straw for Nugget, Grandaddy Jason, is what is needed for now. It won't be long before Nugget sits down on those eggs.😊
I thoroughly enjoyed the brushing party! 😊😊
I'm so glad you enjoyed it 😊
Nugget checking out the eggs, The Boss Lady enjoying being brushed, the critters are keeping you on your toes Jason.
Our sweet Nugget 🥰
Your animals are blessed to be living on your loving farm. They are so happy.
Good Morning Jason, Brooke & MaryCarl! Have a blessed day☀️
Good morning!🌞
Good morning Jason and family I love y'all so much for making me laugh all the time.😂😂😂
I googled it
Emu do NOT have an egg tooth like other birds, they also do NOT unzip eggs like other birds. Instead they smash through the egg membrane and shell when the time is right for them, when their pipping muscles kick in to help the chick find it's way out.
The male will build the nest (which sits on the ground) into which the female will lay 5 to 15 dark green eggs over several days.
Jason ,Brooke ,you care so for your babies ,it’s amazing how they wait in line to get brushed .Thank you for giving them a sanitized nice environment,nice homes .❤❤❤❤
I'm so excited to see what happens with the emu eggs. Thank you for keeping us up to date. ❤
I am so glad Nugget wasn't eating those eggs. As you say, I guess time will tell if he sits on them & what happens to them. You would think someone should be sitting on those eggs right after they're layed to keep them warm. Strange birds with strange habits! We're getting educated about emus that's for sure. I think all of the animals enjoyed being brushed, even Peaches. Maybe watching the donkeys get brushed she thought she should check it out herself!.
I understand that Emu eggs lay dormant until all the eggs are laid which is typically around 16 or so. And yes. Don’t touch them.
Glad to see Nugget starting parental duties. Perhaps you could put a band on one of your emu's legs (like MaryCarl's Victoria pigeons) so that you could easily tell the difference between them at a distance. Glad to see that Honey is fitting right in at Cog Hill Farm.
I yelled out YES when you looked at the video and said it was definitely Nugget. Im so excited to see if he covered them up then hopefully he will sit on them. I just adore Nugget. Im glad Goldey decided he would be a good Dad ❤ Its Awesome to see Jesse and Honey getting along. The Boss says if everyone else is getting brushed then I want it too 😅 I love all your animals ❤️
There are two kinds fertilizing processing.... one is in the ground and the is through the leaves.... It looks like you doing both.......Foliar is through the leaves>>>> Fertigation is fertilizing with water through soil....can be irrigation system or spray like you doing...Farm up, Jason you are to teach which helps others learn!!!! They pay attention to you!!!!
Nugget may just surprise many of us! Maybe a motion activated camera would be cool to keep an eye on the emu eggs. OMGosh! Could you EVEN imagine having 5 or more emu hatchlings racing around the pasture!? 😲
A great way to share the shed fur with the wild birds, I loved to use the wire suet cage to hang under a covered area and keep it filled with the fur after grooming. Once the birds find it, they keep coming back to get more and it doesn't get blown away by the wind. So hanging some on the corners of the outdoor barn stalls (high enough out of reach for the barn cats for the bird's safety) would be good location (easy access to fill and birds to use).
Can't wait to see the work on the VW bus! Good to see Brooke in this video too. Y'all take care!
Love the "Brushing Party". They all patiently wait for their turn. Thanks for sharing garden fertilizer process. So proud of Nugget🫶. He'll prove you wrong. So great to see. Blessings to Cog Hill 🙏🫶🙏🫶
Nugget was tending to the nest. He was caring for the arrangement and the eggs. Go Nugget!
Yes, because the eggs have been changing position as time goes on.
Ya'll should put a trail camera on the area of the eggs so we can all see what they're doing. This would be like watching the Eagle nest cam. 😊
Hey on the farm!!! Love your emu’s!!!! I wish y’all would put a trail cam on the emu nest so we could watch them and what they do all the time!!! Love your new donkey Honey and of course peaches the pig!!! Mildred the cow !!! I love how you talk to them !!! I was raised on a farm and it brings back all the great memories!!
Good morning & have a blessed day
Good morning ☀️
I love your connection to your animal and bird babies.. especially Nugget. He seems so personable that I’m just waiting for him to talk to you!!🥰🥰
Y’all are living my dream! All of these animals that you love AND they all love you back!!! I’ve never seen so many farm animals that LOVE being rubbed, petted, and even brushed. They all come around for their chance to be loved on.
These videos make me so happy!
Y'all need to put a live game camera on the nest so you can keep an eye on it from your phone or computer.
Good morning Jason and Brooke and Marycarl love keeping up with the critters and the tractor and truck
Morning and thank you!
Y'all video are so very peaceful for this old man in my 80's to watch....l THANK Y'ALL FOR THAT TRULY and God Blessing 🙏🙏🙏👍

Jason, Nugget may have been sitting on them and he was getting up so he was covering them while he was on his daily patrol. however as sweet as he is he is following in his human dad's footsteps... love you guys and always enjoy your content.
Just imagine Nugget being a proud daddy. Strutting around the farm with Goldy and their 10 babies ❤❤❤
seems like all Cog Hill Aussies are going to bless y'all with youn'uns
So happy to see Honey and Jessie getting along so well, I want to be a pet or farm animal on your farm you treat them like royalty. and if I lived in your area I would come and get my eggs from you but if I did it now I would have a long commute I live in Western Canada. Have a great day and I love watching your vlogs,
Maybe Nugget was turning the eggs. I love all the videos and love you, Brooke and Mary Carl. ❤❤❤
Jason, it looked to me like he was pecking dirt away to get eggs deeper in soil. That would make them stay warmer when he starts setting on them. I think like Brooke, he will set on them. That old country sheriff knows what to do. 😁
You are too funny Jason! You made it very clear about using fish oil fertilizer. I can't wait tell you try Honey with the chickens and balls. It could be interesting if Jesse plays along. Well it was another great video and I can't wait to see if Nugget lays on the nest. 😊❤👍
Nugget definitely seemed a little ‘edgy’ when you were close to the nest Jason. Looking good! 🐨👍
Thank you for this fun video today and making me smile. We had to send our sweet little Bella over the rainbow bridge today to be with her mama and sisters. She would of been 16 next month just a little 10lb Shih Tuz but feisty, but one good thing is we still have her daddy Toby. Again thank you for the💜 and laughter💜🌈
Good morning. Very exciting to see the story unfold with Goldie and Nugget. ❤ Im not sure if you watch Random Okie Farms but their video last night showed several Emu's were attacked by something, possibly coyotes. They found an egg with what looked like tooth marks. Maybe keep them in your thoughts while they resolve their fencing issues to ensure their babies are safe.
Hi 👋 Cog Hill 🫶🏻
Love the video endings with all the animal sounds. ❤
Good morning Jason received your notification so I'm here. Hope everything turns out good with this eggs.God bless y'all
Yay Nugget!❤ Wow 10 eggs! I hope he sits on them! ❤❤❤
He will turn, cover and keep the eggs free of bugs and clean and coverthem all the time. I bet he will sit❤️. I just love your videos and how much you all love and care for the animals. Just the way you have conversations with them all. 😍
The ostriches at LHL’s have eaten their eggs, don’t know why! I’m glad your eggs are OK! I think he may sit on the nest too! 🤗
@dianesmith 2480 Carl and Debbie eat the eggs because they need the nutrients from the shells and the yolks. Deddie did lay more eggs before Mother's Day
Sometimes they are not viable and will eat them or roll them off to the side based on other channels I’ve seen.
Daddy Nugget was tending to the eggs, helping to keep them covered and possibly cleaning them????.... and Miss Peaches....liking getting brushed???.... AMAZING!!!!.. . Watching Miss Honey , Jessie, Miss Mildred getting brushed is awesome....and then Miss Jessie rolling in the dirt...silly girl.. ... I just love watching your videos.....so relaxing and inspiring.....❤❤❤❤❤ and prayers to all ....God bless
BROOKE YOU LOOK GREAT. I GUESS AFTER WATCHING THE VIDEOS FOR A WHILE CAN TELL WHEN YOUR NOT FEELING WELL. I ❤YOU
Oh Jason Nugget is so precious. He loves you.
GREAT VIDEO!! THIS IS WHY I LOVE SPRING, ALL THE CRITTERS SEEM TO BE GOING SPRING WILD😃.
I mentioned before that Brooke should find some old tractor tires for sale because the goats LOVE to play on them.
Love and prayers always
I looked up different sites about breeding emus and your couple are following natures path perfectly. ❤
Wondering why you don’t have a cam up so we can see all the action? Just curious … it would be very interesting to watch! ❤
Do y'all have a trail cam you can attach to a tree -- out of Nugget's reach, of course -- so you can see when Goldie is sitting/laying eggs, or if they are sitting on them at night? I love it when Nugget just lays down next to you so you can love on him. 🙂
I bet that Nugget will sit on the eggs when Goldie is done laying! I think the fact he was "grooming" (or whatever he was doing?)the eggs is a good sign. I look forward to more updates!
Oh my goodness! Instinct overrides! 😅❤ Not a fool just skeptical! So cool!
❤Nugget looked like when You said You were Going to check Out the Film on Your Camera "DON'T YOU TRUST ME??" ❤ Get Ready I think NUGGET is Going to FOOL YOU!!! Just like Peaches wanted BRUSHED AFTER 9 YRS. ANIMAL'S ARE SMART!!😊😂❤ and Say Hey, WE CHANGE TOO AS WE GROW OLDER!!😂❤
I’m glad Jesse & the others have a new friend. She even brought the boss lady out with the hired help.
I would put up a trail camera to see if Nugget sits on the eggs.
Good morning Jason, Happy Spa Day in the Pasture, they sure do appreciate all the Loving they are getting as they get their best lives. Jason you’re adding a sparkle into all our lives. Isn’t it amazing that smells from the garden plants as they grow and mature can remind you and bring you back into treasured thoughts of your past. Brooke love your smile today God Bless. 😀👍👍👍
Good morning, Cog Hill Farm ❤️ 🚜 ☕️🌄☕️
Have a blessed Hump-day and week ahead!!
Nugget, there is more to learn from you.hmmm....❤❤
What a beautiful day it is there. That sky is gorgeous. A sunny peaceful day at the farm. You are so blessed.
I have a question. Whatcha gonna do if all 10 eggs hatch????? I hope some of them do at least. Thumbs up Mr. Nugo!!
They've said that they already have excellent homes lined up if they hatch.
Happiest animals ever!! Fun, fun video!
