Assuming you are asking about the time it takes for an ostrich to reach full size it takes about 2 to 4 years. Ostriches are the largest living bird in the world and can grow up to 9 feet tall and weigh as much as 420 pounds.
Ostriches are native to Africa and have been domesticated for thousands of years. They are farmed for their meat and their feathers which are used in a variety of ways. Ostriches are interesting creatures and are very different from other birds.
For example ostriches do not have a keel on their breastbone which means they cannot fly. However they can run very fast up to 43 miles per hour. They also have very powerful legs and can kick with enough force to kill a human.
Ostriches are also unique in that they lay the largest eggs of any bird in the world. A single ostrich egg can weigh up to 3 pounds and is the equivalent of 24 chicken eggs.
If you are thinking about raising ostriches it is important to know that they require a lot of space. They need a minimum of 2 acres of land per bird. They also need to be kept in pairs or groups as they are social animals.
Ostriches are not easy animals to care for but they can be a rewarding experience. If you have the space and the resources raising ostriches can be a fun and interesting hobby.
