patsylabrador Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Apparently one egg can make an omlette big enough to feed 15 adults. I'll have to buy one and put it next to the bantams eggs for a photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C&T Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Now that looks like fun! Just imagine the size of a cake made with that!!! But if a few friends are staying over, after "the night before", then this could make an excellent fun breaky for the "morning after". Just add half a pigs worth of bacon, and 10 loaves of bread!

Valkyrie Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I'd get my own, but I don't think they would like the cube much. Not seen them in ours, but there is an ostrich farm not too far away (Crowthorne-ish/Wokingham-ish ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 They sell them at the 'farmers market', £12.50 I think. Would be good for mass catering! Look too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Hope they are successful and we see them at Waitrose in Alcester!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavenders_Blue Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Wonder what my broody would say if I stuck one of these under her? More to the point... what would you do if it hatched?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Wonder what my broody would say if I stuck one of these under her? Anyone got a mounting block? Can you battery farm ostriches? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 No you can't Snowy. Well not battery farm as such, Ostriches are in fact a Dangerous Wild Animal (DWA) in Great Britain, the keeping of exotic DWA species is subject to heavy local council, vet and welfare billing. One of the stipulations of the legislation is that the animal has a naturalistic environment and ability to perform it's natural instincts etc. one of the main charachterisitcs of the ostrich is it's ability to run and display, something which requires larger land amounts.
