Greetings,
I'm looking into raising EMU's and would like to correspond with
anyone in this wide world who has knowledge of them, knows the market
conditions, breeders, etc.
Looking forward to hearing from any of you,

Well, I can tell you they're the most popular bird for crossword puzzle
use. Other than that, you're on your own! :^) :^)

Hi,
I was at Southwick Zoo (Mendon, MAss)this weekend and they said EMU are
very tame. They had some young ones there.
Note 343 tells about a place you could contact about getting set up
breeding.
The attached note from Small animals talks about a guy in New
Hampshire. I talked to him a few months ago and he gets a few magazines
that are strictly about Ostrichs. I would think they also advertize
Emus.
Good luck

I was at a Club auction last night and a 12 week old PBP (Pot Bellied Pig)
was offered with a minimum of $375. I talked to the guy that breeds
them. He sells males for $500 and females for $750. This includes a
halter and 50 lbs of food.
PBP live 12-15 years
weigh up to 40 lbs
can easily be house trained.
The Guys name is Nick Christo.
