Do emu's make good pets?
>>5135552That is a solid Yes.-Doesn't eat that much food and doesn't need a ton of space (a large backyard is good enough)-Females lay lots of HUGE eggs equivalent to about a dozen chicken eggs each during the winter-Generally friendly and virtually harmless even if they tried to attack someone (there has never been a recorded death from an emu attack)-Big bird. Big enough that you don't have to worry about predators that much, and it will probably survive even if your neighbor's idiot dog breaks into the yard.-They're quieter than chickens/roosters and just make deep "thump" vocalizations.Downsides:-Their poop is gross. You probably want to rake it moderately often.
>>5135552Some do.Some are cuddly and just want to be your companion others are aloof and evasive. The extra friendly ones are about 1 in 4 or 5 from my estimation.

>>5135552I fucking love emus. There were two of them at a holiday farm my grandad used to run that I'd always go up to and put my arm around and talk to them (one them anyway, the other was always a bit timid). I was little at the time so the emu was bigger than me, but I never felt scared of them. I'd love to get one as a pet, but the yard just isn't big enough.
