My parents had EMUS, which are similar but the eggs are a dark turqoise, green color. I have a thousand things to do with these. Reverse painting on the inside, dremel some areas down for lighting coming through the shell, alcohol inks, as well as holiday scenes. Lastly, they make gorgeous night lights when you "carve" them. GREAT AUCTION! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jul 8th, 2012 at 12:16:37 PM PDT by

yw i love all the ideas i would love to get and emu egg myself lol:)

Jul 8th, 2012 at 1:19:10 PM PDT by

I think I would make an ornament (first thought of a Christmas one, but would love to enjoy it all year) out of it and hang it in a very visual area,

Jul 8th, 2012 at 8:59:31 AM PDT by

yeah that would be nice too:)

it was not going to have a baby:( but they drill and clean them b4 they sell it

Jul 7th, 2012 at 6:40:13 PM PDT by

i would paint it and decorate it to be a mini-me ostrich shelf sitter using the egg as the main body

Jul 8th, 2012 at 7:30:51 PM PDT by

Jul 8th, 2012 at 7:32:18 PM PDT by

how would you ship it isn't it fragile and i heard those sell for 100.00 to 500.00 dollars who would drill it and empty it????

Jul 8th, 2012 at 7:12:20 AM PDT by

they breed them and he said it didnt take so the drill and clean them they can be too fragile the bird dose not sit to lay them the have to stand and they are like 1/4 of an inch thick:)i will box it lol:)

Jul 8th, 2012 at 1:36:02 PM PDT by

Jul 8th, 2012 at 1:38:41 PM PDT by

Jul 8th, 2012 at 5:56:21 PM PDT by

Jul 8th, 2012 at 5:58:31 PM PDT by

Jul 9th, 2012 at 1:30:24 PM PDT by

Jul 9th, 2012 at 2:42:06 PM PDT by

I think it would make a very unique jewelry case. or a display case for some thing just as unique.

Jul 7th, 2012 at 8:16:43 PM PDT by
