The EMU Farmer's Handbook, Volume 2, Maria Minnaar,
By Letha Ochs (Brighton, Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Emu Farmer's Handbook: Volumue 2: Commercial Farming Methods for Emus, Ostriches and Rheas (Hardcover)
This is a thorough treatment on a hard-to-find subject. The book covers all aspects of raising emus, including: housing, health, breeding, incubation, raising chicks, and marketing emu products. The author, Maria Minnaar, has been raising emus commercially since the mid-1980s. This book is aimed at the commercial emu farmer, with detailed information on veterinary care, breeding, meat cuts and emu oil processing. The author provides one chapter on raising Ostrich and Rhea, highlighting the differences between these birds and emus. There is an interesting section covering other ratites, the Cassowary, Kiwi, Moa and Elephant Bird, and a good bibliography of ratite information sources. The drawings and photographs are high-quality.

OVER-RATED,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Emu Farmer's Handbook: Volumue 2: Commercial Farming Methods for Emus, Ostriches and Rheas (Hardcover)
This book contains a wide variety of topics on emus, but does not give enough useful detailed information. It is too generalized and seems afraid to mention actual brand names of feed and equipment.This is not a book for those looking for a step-by-step, detailed "how-to" reference guide.
