Bamboo looked so cute dozing off on the nest. It’s crazy that this happened so fast after getting the two males. An it seems that was all Bamboo needed to figure out how to be a male Emu. Awesome news, so happy for you guys!
It's their first time as emu parents. They're probably all figuring it out. You can see Bamboo is trying. He's so precious. If it doesn't work out this year, hopefully next year, and with a bigger enclosure down the line, it'll go smoother next year. Can't wait til you have bigger enclosures for everybody.
I have a friend who keeps a trio. 2 males and a female. It is normal and natural for 2 males to share a nest if the female hasnt made a second nest for the second. Esp if both boys go "broody" at the same time.
Hello guys, great job with all of your emu eggs, I wanted to let you guys know that my zebra finches are sitting on their eggs, I will let you guys know how it turns out
Its so good that you give your boys chores and farm work to do that will give them a good work ethic for when they get hired for a job other boys these days sit around and play vidio games your a great dad to them boys keep it up
Holy cow, I remember when you got Bamboo and it ran around the inside of your house wearing it's little sock diapers, chasing your boys as just a wee little hatchling and now all your emu's are ALL grown up and making nests of their own💚 Thank you WHOTH for sharing this amazing journey with us!!
@@DarkShadow-iq6yb there, I made it gender neutral. I just remember fondly watching the emu hatchling run around inside of their house when he first incubated emu's with an egg from ebay
Dark Shadow, yes Bamboo is a he. The males sit on the nests in the emu world. Daddy shrimp carry and birth the young from their pouch. Biology is diverse.
its amazing how much you care for those emus, and how much they care for you! Emus have a powerful kick, so its very sweet to see they've never tried to kick you or Becky or your kids. love your channel, keep those videos coming!
This is so facinating to me! Despite all the differences between you guys in America and us Aussies with the weather and season somehow the emus seem to be pretty in sync!! We've got a lot of wild emus around us. I saw a big papa yesterday with 6 babies in tow, and what I believe may have been mumma with another male in the same area on my way home
Love your channel and watching your family thrive and grow. It's been wonderful. You guys should consider finally expanding the Emu enclosure. They really do need a lot of space so they can run. With a large enough fenced enclosure, you would be able to keep them all together instead of separate. They would be able to escape each other during arguments which would really help with the aggression you're seeing as well as the egg crushing issues. Most likely, Bert is not trying to breed, he is chasing the female away from the nest because she is probably the one actually crushing the eggs when she runs into the emu hut. Please consider making this upgrade for them, for their mental and physical health. You've mentioned plans for it in old videos when you first moved into the new house. 🙏
Its pretty wild seeing how big and small an Emu can make itself, while it was playing with your son and the rocket. They are like giraffes with retractable necks.
I hope this year you can build more & larger emus pens. This will give the emus to run, fight, love, play, and maybe give them enough room NOT to destroy the nest.
I'm so happy that your chickens are doing better! I discovered your channel about a month or so ago and I really enjoyed it. I've binge watched quite a few episodes. 💙💙💙
After the clutch is fully laid, remove all but the broody male and let him have his own area. He'd be solitary after the clutch is laid in the wild. It may wok in captivity. Or, buy fake Emu eggs and replace them outside. Take the real eggs in to incubate and then swap them just before hatching.
It almost seemed like Burt was trying to keep peekaboo away from the eggs. Not sure as I'm not familiar with emus. But that's what it looked like to me
Hi from Australia 🇦🇺 I don’t know everything about emus but Bert shouldn’t really have the other two encroaching on his space while he’s sitting on the eggs. I don’t think he’s trying to mate with Peekaboo, I think he’s trying to chase her off because he’s territorial over the eggs. Same for Bamboo. It’s a shame that it’s caused eggs to be broken. But hopefully the ones in the brooder will hatch. 🙂 really enjoy watching your videos. So relaxing.
I love seeing your large birds. You pet them and they seem to enjoy it. I've been around others and they certainly didn't want to be pet or be near their owners.
You can prevent your emu from eating eggs by practicing. Paint some ceramic eggs to look like emu eggs and make sure their size is the same as the emu eggs. Leave them in the nest. Emus will try to break them but they will encounter with solid hard eggs. After several days, they will stop pecking eggs.
I learned so much about emus from this video. Love all the details. I would never have known any of these things of not for your farm and fabulous family.
Your videos are always so interesting! I have learned so much since I started following you. I love the way you are teaching the children even though they are still so young.
Regarding the Factor Food containers: When you microwave your food in plastic containers or plastic wrap covers, some of the plastic gets vaporized, and some of the vaporized plastic molecules get into the food. Going forward, transfer the food to non plastic, microwave safe containers before putting them in the microwave. Use a plate or paper towel for a cover instead of plastic wrap. I use my microwave oven very often, but never use plastic in there. Another good way to cook food is in a crockpot. It always comes out tasting real good. I have a 5qt round one and a 3.5qt oval one, and I use both. I just made up a big batch of BBQ crockpot chicken yesterday evening. Regarding emus: I like emu videos because they are funny to watch. Due to health issues I can no longer handle taking care of a pet, so I have to make do with animal videos.🐣😃
Welcome to parenthood, Bamboo! 😂 the dozing was hilarious. I feel him- for real! Amazing that all he needed was seeing Burt set the example. Thanks for sharing your life with us!
Always love watching your guys videos and the emus having eggs and sitting on them was amazing to hear, it’s been a journey getting to this point I’m so happy for you guys I hope things work out
I went to my local park which has emus and kangaroos. I live in Melbourne, and the Ranger says females lay about 18 eggs a season. There a bit early, as they breed in the Australian winter, and we’re still in Autumn here in the southern hemisphere.
I am so looking forward to seeing the eggs hatch. I suppose that the birds outside its the first time they have had eggs so as they have no other emus as role models things can go wrong. My dad had a broody hen that raised ducks and she would take them to the pond and let them swim. She laid a clutch of her own eggs, hatched them them took them to the pond and pushed them all in, sad.
As an Australian who is used to seeing emus in the wild, it makes me so sad to see them in such a tiny pen. They just love to run. Do you give them any opportunity to run around in a larger area? I can see you live the, so much which is really great.

Yep
@@whitehouseonthehill I love Your Vids!!

And my silkies use too hatch nest together one giant nest and raise them together
@@k9thundra they probably meant like lay a another spot of eggs
Hello guys, great job with all of your emu eggs, I wanted to let you guys know that my zebra finches are sitting on their eggs, I will let you guys know how it turns out
@@maggrocks7816 that is what i meant.
Thanks for the fact
Time flies! From egg to egg layer, huge respect for the White House fam for such good care and dedication to the animals!
Thanks 😊
Its so good that you give your boys chores and farm work to do that will give them a good work ethic
for when they get hired for a job other boys these days sit around and play vidio games your a great dad to them boys keep it up

Thanks… yeah, they can be goofy and unintentionally wild with their kicks, but we’ve been alright around them.
aweeeee... so cute. You must be so proud of them and that Bamboo finally figured it out too. Hope you get lots of hatchlings! Prayers to you all.
Thanks!

He might be trying to chase Peekaboo away from the nest since she's been pecking the first batch of eggs
We are so much attached emotionally to bamboo. That little nap touched my heart. Soon going to be daddy. Bamboos journey 💕💕💕💕💕
there are such good fathers.
6:17 lol Bamboo looked like he was smiling for the camera 😅
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

Yh I pray Jake can build a very big place for the emus
Sweet Bamboo growing up, he's so cute, love from Melbourne Australia 🦘🦘🌏🌏
Good luck guys. We're really hoping things work out for you.
Thanks for sharing the emus. Prayers for health and safety!🙏❤🙏
Emu's are so silly lol I love watching them..
You guys have learned SO MUCH since you started keeping poultry. And thank goodness for the inventor of those Peepers.
I'm so happy that your chickens are doing better! I discovered your channel about a month or so ago and I really enjoyed it. I've binge watched quite a few episodes. 💙💙💙
the emus playing with the toy that shoots up really made me giggle 😂🥺

Bert showed Bamboo,what to do💚
I really hope some of them make it 😊
Was not expecting to get hit with a song I listened to daily after a creator I loved died to cancer, it's a great song and always makes me tear up.
It almost seemed like Burt was trying to keep peekaboo away from the eggs. Not sure as I'm not familiar with emus. But that's what it looked like to me
Emus are such pretty birds this is so exciting
best of luck with the situation giving u blessings and hoping for the best
FINALLY! Another video about the emus! I love emus (Especially the chicks) And they just make my day...
Cool emmu hope you get more soon ❤❤
Away so cute

Look like this is the year of breeding for your animals!!! I hope we get to see some amazing babies in the next couple months :D
It's so exciting to see the birds setting eggs. ❤
Emus like some fresh fruits and veggies too.
Since Bamboo seems dedicated, you could put him in an enclosure of his own to incubate
Omg Emus are so cute and sadness curing when they are happy
I’m excited for the Laser Ducks laying !!
The Emu’s are fascinating ❤️
I love seeing your large birds. You pet them and they seem to enjoy it. I've been around others and they certainly didn't want to be pet or be near their owners.
Bamboo sitting on eggs feels so weird and unnatural 😂😂

You have to make a give way of your emu baby after they harch out , hopefully they lay more eggs and not harm them😊
I can’t wait for the eggs to hatch I’ve been so excited ever since y’all announced they were laying.
Aww I remember when Bamboo hatched now he's about to be a dad! 🥲😭
Thankyou for the update!!
I learned so much about emus from this video. Love all the details. I would never have known any of these things of not for your farm and fabulous family.
DUeD im 19 and im subscribed for 3yrs now. Youve been a great inspiration for me thx
Love Emus, there special .
you have such a beautiful daughter. God bless the entire family
I lost it when the little one said hot! hot! hot! his face I can't 😭😭
A bigger area might lessen the agitation of the emus towards each other - less chasing, less fighting, less eggs getting stepped on...
This is all so exciting!!
That’s amazing I was watching your other video!! I can’t believe you got some more emu eggs! Congrats 🎉🎊🎈
never thought about what they do with their heads when they sleep, cute seeing his head flop back tired
Congratulations.. cant wait for more updates..
Your videos are always so interesting! I have learned so much since I started following you. I love the way you are teaching the children even though they are still so young.
I'm wondering if the emu pin should be bigger for the breading season
8:44 Present to you, Non-real but real chicken human!😂
They’re literally giving me another cliffhanger for the next video, but can’t wait for a part 3

Thanks for sharing ❤
Watching bamboo fall asleep is absolutely adorable
so excited to see if the eggs hatch!!
well, stranger things have happened when it comes to animal parents.
some have even taken care of different species.
Welcome to parenthood, Bamboo! 😂 the dozing was hilarious. I feel him- for real! Amazing that all he needed was seeing Burt set the example. Thanks for sharing your life with us!
Can't wait to see the emu eggs hatch🎉🎉
This was super educational. I feel like I learnt heaps.
I wonder if you could put sand down in the emu run? I use sand in my chicken coop and run so it doesn't get muddy during rainy seasons.
Always love watching your guys videos and the emus having eggs and sitting on them was amazing to hear, it’s been a journey getting to this point I’m so happy for you guys I hope things work out
I'm so happy for you guys! I'm sorry that it took 4 years!!!!
With the crushed eggs, can you see any development?
I really wish you guys would post more. I really do enjoy watching and learning from you
I just love your vidios thier helpful and entertaining and I hope all your eggs hatch thanks for all the videos 👍👍🐤🐥🐤🐦🦃🐓
Super rubble is on the double😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
I just love the updates on the emu eggs😍 got my hopes up you get some new babies. ❤❤❤
I’m pretty sure I live vicariously through y’all❤️ - if that makes sense
I am so happy for you all and this exciting journey that you are on. So beautiful. 😊
This is so cool to learn.
Oh no, don't break the eggs! Rough crowd.
Doesn’t look like he’s chasing her to breed with her. He’s chasing her out because she’s trying to break the eggs.
Can’t wait to see what happens!!! So happy!!!!!🎉
Bamboo is such a good boy.
Super Rubble is on the double, so cute😊😝
Wow amazing
I love the Emu story!
Where did you get the leg bands from?
Hope you all stay safe this tornado season
Amazing story.

Hello, I have a broody hen expecting her eggs to hatch around 5-6th April, I love watching your videos. Have a nice day!
Omg that’s the same day mine are hatching
That’s one day before my eggs will hatch out!
Love for your hen...
Cashew playing was awesome!
I am so looking forward to seeing the eggs hatch. I suppose that the birds outside its the first time they have had eggs so as they have no other emus as role models things can go wrong. My dad had a broody hen that raised ducks and she would take them to the pond and let them swim.

always waiting for your videos love them💯💯
Hey love your videos I would love to see more hatching videos and some new incubator videos 👍👍👍
I was wondering why I hadn't seen you guys in ages youtube unsubbed me ??? Good to see your doing well!
I love your emus there so cute !!
As an Australian who is used to seeing emus in the wild, it makes me so sad to see them in such a tiny pen. They just love to run. Do you give them any opportunity to run around in a larger area?
I can see you live the, so much which is really great.
