How did the emu get their long necks?
well they are related to the ostrich so that is pretty simple LOL. Butwhen theywere born they had no necks!
Is emu oil a skin moisturizer?
Yes. Clinical studies undertaken regarding emu oil's skin moisturising properties have suggested that the ratio of C-16 to C-18 unsaturated components of emu oil makes it an effective moisturiser because it can improve the ability of the upper layers of the skin to hold onto water and penetrate the epidermis. It seems to be able to improve the smoothness of rough dry skin.
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.
Yes, emus can swim, but it is not an activity they choose to do, unless it is necessary.
Those who have tried emu meat are divided. Some enjoy it regularly, while others state they would not bother with it again. It is all a matter of personal preference.
Emus have double feathers, meaning that the bird looks like it has hair, rather than feathers. These soft light brown to dark brown wispy feathers are common on their body and the top of their heads, but sparse on their necks, where blue skin is visible.
Emus' feathers are different colours, but they range from dark cream to darker browns and greys. The overall effect tends to be of a dark-brown to grey bird.
The emu has brown to black wispy feathers on its head, and a blue patch on its neck.
Where can one purchase Emu boot products?
Perhaps the best resource for purchasing Emu boot products is through the company's official website. The site offers fast shipping at affordable rates.
Emu aren't killed FOR their oil. They're raised in emu farms and killed for their meat... The fat and meat are then separated, and the fat is melted down and refined to oil.
Most of the emu is used after it is killed... The feathers, hide, even claws do not go to waste.
Sad, but at least they are not being killed ONLY for the oil.
No, an emu is a large, flightless bird which is endemic to Australia. Like an amphibian, it is a vertebrate, but that is basically where the similarity ends. Amphibians are the frogs, newts, salamanders and the like.
Emus generally lay between five and fifteen eggs per clutch, so ten eggs is a possibility.
Are peacocks and emus friends?
they maybe in zoos but emus are from Australia and peacocks are from Asia

How long does it take to boil an emu egg?

What was the name of the witch enemy that Emu and Rod had?
Rod Hull and his Emu had the witch Grotbags on the television show Emu's Pink Windmill Show.
What climate do the emus enjoy the most?
Emus range from coastal areas, where they are becoming increasingly rarer due to developments and roads, to the sub-Alpine regions. Therefore, they can take a range of temperatures from cool-temperate to hot-temperate.
The emu does not burrow. An emu's nest is a shallow hole, usually by a bush, and lined with leaves, grass, and bark.
What does a male emu look like?
A male emu looks exactly like the female: it is impossible to tell them apart by physical appearance.
Emus are flightless birds, with no visible wings, but wings hidden beneath hairy feathers. Males grow to between 1.6 metres and 2 metres high, on average, and weigh between 30 and 40 kilograms. Emus have three toes on each of their strong legs, an adaptation common in birds built for ground speed rather than flight. Each toe has a claw of 17-18 mm in length.
Emus have double feathers, meaning that the bird looks like it has hair, rather than feathers. These soft light brown to dark brown wispy feathers are common on their body and the top of their heads, but sparse on their necks, where blue skin is visible. Their shaggy feathers act as insulation against heat, whilst their head feathers are darker. They have brown eyes.
It is strongly recommended that you find a professional to do it cleanly and humanely.
Are emu boots waterproofed already?
