Yes. The male emu builds the nest, and incubates the eggs. Once the female emu lays her eggs, she has nothing more to do with them. The male looks after the young chicks once they hatch. Once emu chicks are old enough, they forage along side their father, seeking food such as insects, and fresh vegetation.
The male emu builds a nest and incubates the eggs laid by the female. He also raises the chicks.
It takes about 50 days to hatch an Emu egg. The male usually picks out where he wants the hen to lay the eggs. She will lay one egg every three days and when she has 6 to 8 eggs in the nest he will brood. The male sits on the eggs not the female.
The taste of an emu egg is similar to a chicken egg but with a richer and creamier flavor.
I just bought an emu egg from an emu farm. The owner of the farm told me 1 hour and 45 minutes to hard boil the egg.
Male emus are only referred to as male emus and female emus as female emus.

Probably the same way every other egg hatches. Emu eggs are incubated and hatched by the male emu. Also, the male may incubate the eggs of several females within the same nest. During the time he sits on the eggs, his metabolic rate slows, he does not eat or drink at all, and he stands just a couple of times each day to roll and turn the eggs. Average incubation of emu eggs takes around 8 weeks.
The emu is a bird, and all birds are warm-blooded. This is one of the characteristics that makes them birds.
