Its the closest thing to the goose that lays the golden eggs that exists outside of fairytales.
The Tinamou-looks somewhat quail or partridge like with an elegant shape, but more closely related to the ratites, though not in the same family.
But the eggs are strikingly different.
Brilliant colors of purple, blue, pink and green naturally shine from tinamou eggs
Native to South America, tinamous are exceedingly rare in North America, though they breed readily in captivity. I know, because I've been looking everywhere for them.
So how much would you love to get one of these birds, eh? What would you pay to get your hands on a pair?
