My emu will not eat this. Bummer This may just be my Emu.
My emu and rhea love this, and it is far cheaper than Mazuri.
Fast shipping, was really happy about that! They aren’t use to it yet but I’m sure they will soon
We’ve been buying and feeding Kalmbach Ratite feed from chewy since we hatched our first emu almost 2 years ago. It works great for all stages and ensures your emus are getting all the appropriate nutrients to stay healthy! Highly recommend!
My baby rheas grew well and liked this food. Much cheaper then the Mazuri feed and they did just as well.
Not many feed mills in our area can order emu feed in and the ones that can all want a price point per bag that is $25-30.00. Chewy offers an affordable way to get a quality emu feed. Delivery is always quick and on time.
