Thanks! 97.5 and 45% Unfortunately we had to get rid of our rhea because it kept trying to attack everything. Once it reached maturity it became horribly mean
I think that dia is actually a male. I am going to use another youtube channel that also raises rhea for examples here, being the urban rescue ranch. Ben, the person who runs the place, has had 3 adult rhea, 2 males and one female. Both males have very different personalities, one named kevin who is VERY aggressive, being like dia when aggressive, and one named kyle who is very relaxed. The female, karen, is also relaxed. The demeanor of dia is a lot like kyle, where she is calm most of the time but gets aggressive, but for a territorial reason. Kyle would only be aggressive because kevin would attack him as all 3 rhea were housed in the same pen. It seems like dia is easier to get into an aggresive mode, which is not like kyle. Also, judging by other videos from this channel, dia has the tendency to become all puffed up and spread her wings out, head down, which is a sign of a male rhea. Kevin would constantly do this, and kyle would rarely do it, mainly when he became the alpha of the 3 of them. He would also rarely make noise, although i dont think ben had him during the breeding season. With all this said i think dia is a male. She could still be a female however, and is just taking up male behaviors due to her being the only female rhea that you have and is thus the alpha. Those are just my thoughts. I would recommend watching bens videos however, as he has a lot of experience with aggressive rhea as hes had kevin for around 3 years now.
Yeah, females aren’t that dramatically colored with the black! Many birds have less “pretty” females for some reason. i know it’s for the males to attract a mate with looks, but it is hard with rheas to really tell. Also, they do bite, but gotta watch out for those feet too!
Emu. Because, Kevin.
Haha
But Emus have Karen. Tough choice
Rhea because Kevin
Both are good.
Beautiful farm and birds. What temp and humidity do you use to incubate the rhea? Would love more rhea videos!

@@pearlleeooo9955 no just no
@@gulps４you wdym? They can also hurt you. Not as bad, but could still end a small child
@@pearlleeooo9955 rheas can endanger your life not emus because rhea attacks are painful then emu attacks
