Eggs are being layed daily.
An emu egg weighs a hefty 400 to 650 grams (14 to 23 ounces or just about 1 to 1.5 lbs) and has an average width and length of 87 mm and 130 mm (3.4 to 5.1 inches), respectively.
They have a uniquely dark green, emerald color due to the presence of the biliverdin pigment in the shell.
One emu egg is equivalent to about 8 to 12 chicken eggs (depending on individual egg sizes), so unless you’re really packing an appetite, chances are you won’t be able to eat one in a single sitting.
The emu egg is the second largest egg behind the ostrich egg.
If you’re cooking one at home, then “you’re gonna need
a bigger frying pan!”
If you’re looking to hard boil one of these eggs, it could take well over an hour!
Nutritional Value
* Emu eggs are praised to be highly nutritious
compared to other eggs.

(Polyunsaturated fatty acid/Monounsaturated fatty acid)
* The emu egg yolk is also paler compared to a hen’s egg, and is usually big, taking up about 45% of the egg.
* Emu eggs also have 15.54% proteins, 35.84% fats, 1.78% minerals, 0.63% carbohydrate, and 51.14% dry matter. Compared to chicken eggs, emu eggs are undoubtedly healthier.
* Emu eggs are not only beautiful but also super-delicious and nutritious
They are lately in high demand, especially by bodybuilders and high-end restaurants, who make diverse dishes from emu eggs.
Just like rearing any poultry, eggs are a guaranteed benefit of raising emus. With emus, however, their eggs are not normal-sized eggs like a chicken’s. Emu eggs often measure about 6 inches in length and weigh about 1 pound or even more.
A normal chicken egg weighs around 2 ounces, meaning that a single emu egg is equal to 10-12 chicken eggs.
Besides the outstanding nutritional value, emu eggs are prized for their large size alongside their tough, durable shell in a delightful dark green, emerald color, making them best used in decoration applications.
