$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Pops', 'O')ne guy said they were worth quite a bit at one time but not so much anymore, I don't know. I thought it might be someone's pet though and worth the effort to try and find the owner.
Yeah, it was a minor craze for a little bit. the stupid things were supposed to be a big thing because the have big eggs and are pretty easy to raise. But then it turned out no one wanted huge eggs and no wan wanted to eat emu meat and all the people who bought a bunch of them lost a lot of money.
