Abstract
Emu farming in India is gaining commercial importance. Report on leg deformities due to hypocalcaemia was scanty for emu birds. Hence, this communication reports investigated effect of calcium levels on emu birds specifically as a cause for leg deformities (Figure 1 &2). Birds were administered with oral calcium preparations (Syrup containing vitamin A, Calcium and Vitamin D3 and vitamin B12) daily twice in drinking water for the period of three months.
