Emus typically lay eggs every 2 to 3 days during their breeding season. A female emu lays a clutch of about 5 to 15 large, green eggs over this period, with intervals of roughly 2 to 4 days between each egg

. The breeding season usually occurs between November and March or April to June depending on the climate

. Once the female lays the eggs, the male takes over incubation duties, sitting on the eggs for about 55 to 56 days without eating or drinking much, turning the eggs around 10 times a day

. The female often leaves after laying the clutch and may seek other mates

. In summary:

• Eggs laid every 2-3 days on average
• Clutch size: 5 to 15 eggs per breeding season
• Breeding season: mainly November to March or April to June
• Male incubates eggs for about 55-56 days

This pattern allows emus to lay multiple eggs over a few weeks within a single breeding season
