Thanks for watching!

I agree with everyone, Zazu would be a great name for the little guy!! 😁

[clarehagley]

Bamboo has just became the dominant male

[thedignifieddane]

Zazu from Lion King. For the new little boy

[joshuasnow]

If you have Bert and Ernie you need a Ducky. As in rubber ducky.

[deborahgilliland]

Sounds like Bamboo has come into his own and he's on a different mating season than the others. Possibly too many males on the farm as well

[LoneWaffles]

I find hand raised roosters that are super friendly when younger will sometimes turn out extra agressive once they mature, because they lack any fear and then the horomones make them bold. Its sad but i never over coddle the roos. Could be similar with emu, who knows

[_revivify_]

Oh no bamboo 🥲. I hope he maintains him dominance with the other emus but goes back to being kind to you guys ❤

[northstarastrologytarottalks]

I was thinking Elmo as well because either Bert is the father. Bernie, Baboo, Kazoo, Baloo, Caribou, Zazoo or Zazu

ELI!!!! He is a TOUGH kid. It’s been so cool to see his strength grow as he’s grown.

I worked at a large ostrich ranch many years ago. My favorite area by far was the nursery. But there came THAT day in every feathered little friend’s journey … when even the sweetest ones SWITCHED IT UP😜
It is definitely a thang with ‘big bird’ 🤦🏼‍♀️😆
You can see it in the head tilt when it’s time to run!!!🤣
You should’ve seen me and the kids tryna collect the eggs from the nests of the established breeding pairs. Woah Nelly!!!
It was surprisingly fun yet seriously dangerous!
We had long neck poles which were at times useless but also probs saved many a life I’m sure.
We had to stall out our pairs … cuz once they get to a certain age, size, attitude or select a mate etc. it’s over for the shared corral!
Be safe and don’t get discouraged … hormones are tricky for all God’s creatures 😂🤪

[leannesmith]

Wow never thought bamboo would be aggressive 😢

[nyckl]

Has bamboo been watching Karen on Useless Farm??? She does this to her owner almost all of the time…

[maryjoiner]

I don't know anything about emus but I do raise chickens and occasionally have issues with rooster trying to establish dominance.
This MAY sound absolutely crazy?....but the best way I have found to deal with challenging roosters is to hold them down on the ground until they relax and then remain laying on the ground (showing submission)
So I don't even know if you can hold him down on the ground but maybe?

[zebraloverbridget]

It sounds like he got frustrated (re-productively) since once he was mature he had no interest in the females. The it just built up until he got to where he is now. Hopefully he will be chill again after a breeding season if you can safely keep a female with him during it. Otherwise, it might get worse

This issue can happen to other birds as well as just other animals. I know for smaller pet birds there is a ton of info on where not to touch your bird to avoid causing the same issue and what not to put in their cage or to not give them access to in order to prevent it from happening.

Theuseless farm has an emu just like bamboo. Her emus name is Karen and she really comes up mean behind the owner. She may be able to give you some insight on why they do this. Good luck!

[beckyzolotor]

Bamboo, he is getting ruff maybe he is finding out his strength...im not a farmer but I love watching yall and other ones as well. Gods creations are just amazing....
God bless 🙌 each of you in the precious White House on the hill in Missouri and all of your outside babies!!!❤❤

[patriciabonitz]

I didn't know that there is so much work in breeding Emu's and how they all don't get along. It's pretty neat to watch. I love you guys. 😁💪❤❤❤

[fuzzyfinch]

~GaSp~ Name him Zazu!!!! lots of people are saying this and I agree!!! 😁

[aa-joo]

From Mosul- Iraq , all the way to you, Much luv and respect to u all .

[eishamster]

I think it's great that the emus have so much space to run, they are wonderful animals and always look a bit clumsy.
please keep doing what you are doing because it is amazing.
I also have a few ideas for names, even if they may not be the best ideas. i was thinking about COOKIE DOUGH or PEANUT. sounds pretty cute. With kind regards from Germany ❤
