    Ostritches are also some of the most aggressive shits on the planet. They also might be the most deadly.

    My grandfather had ostrich farm, the ostrich would o ly tolerate him if he wore very specific hat. No one else could get near him.

      What did he farm the ostriches for, eggs?

      I grew up on a farm and there was a family in our area and they used to have peacocksz but I’m pretty sure they were just there the visual interest because I don’t think they were actually part of the farm stock. I always assumed that people kept ostriches for pretty much the same reason, because honestly they are pain to deal with. I certainly don’t think I’ve ever really seen ostrich eggs being particularly high in demand.
