I asked my hubby he said absoutly not! I can just put one in the incubator....... No hon, that came from the chicken I sware.


I didn't read any ordinace that says I can't have an ostrish. I could ride it to get my pet food.... The sign says pets welcomed!!!

I want a Emu instead, or maybe a few cassowary to keep unwanted neighbors and other assorted in-and outlaws off my future proberty.

I just saw a special on Ostrich. I think it was on the discovery channel but I could be wrong. They said that you can't just "crack" the egg because it is so tough and so they drill a whole in them to get out the yolk and stuff. A 200 lb man can stand on one and it wouldn't brake. And the eggs shells sell for $10.00 A PIECE! WOW! $10.00 for a broken egg!!!! And then they decorate them and sell them. Google it. It's cool.

I showed a house one time, and the seller had a huge Ostrich/Emu egg in his den. I was looking at it and just amazed at how thick the shell really is, and he said, "I keep them around to give the grandkids, and I keep this one to remind me how dumb I was thinking I could make a living off of them." I laughed for a week over that.

I've had this since I was 8. I have nightmares every once in a while of it breaking.
