Charlotte Harrison, a mother of three, bought an egg from e-Bay and after incubating it properly, after a month and a half an emu chick came out of it.
She named him Kevin, the chicken now 30 centimeters tall.
Charlotte says she’s raised chickens before, but she never imagined she’d grow an emu. She tells that the chick lies down on her feet and plays with the children’s plush animals, writes descubă.ro.
Charlotte’s whole family has fallen in love with the little emu, and the woman is amused when she sees her husband, Darren, who at the age of 44 talks to Kevin whenever she has the opportunity.
“I wasn’t sure Kevin would get out of that egg, but I read a lot and did everything I could to give him a chance at life,” said Charlotte, impressed that the chick is so attached to her.
The woman described the whole process from which Kevin appeared in the world as similar to human pregnancy.
“It simply came to our notice then. The chick is following me around the house and is attached to me as if I were his mother “, Charlotte explained.
Starting with the 36th day of incubation, the woman started talking to the chick in the egg imitating the emu sounds heard on YouTube, and believes that this also led to a strong connection between them.
“I can’t believe I managed to do everything right so that Kevin came out of the egg,” Charlotte concluded the impressive story.
