How do ostrich farmers make money?
Answer:
Ostrich meat is indistinguishable from beef, but with much less fat. Theoretically the farming of ostriches makes sense for the meat. when it started in the US about 20 years ago the early ostrich breeders sold the ostriches to those who were lured into the idea of making money farming. As usual these early entrepreneurs made good money, whether the eventual farming paid off or not.
Selling their meat.
They sell the meat. It's very expensive.
ever heard of fudruckers? they kill them for their meat. sorry if you really liked the birds ;)
Ostrich meat becomes more and more popular and it's a first class meat - a little like bison or deer. But it takes a long time to raise the ostriches - up to three years. And a lot of experience,too. And the need - more than other farm animals - a special climate.
