Breeding season at Safari Ostrich Show Farm

Its that time of year again, when spring is in the air and mother nature gets the birds humming and the bees buzzing.  During the spring and summer months, ostriches will make their nests, lay their eggs and incubate for approx 42 days.  On the Safari Ostrich Show Farm we will be collecting eggs three a week and put the eggs in incubators for 42 days before the chicks start pipping.  Watch this unique video footage of a female ostrich laying an egg and the male is close by protecting her and the nest.
