    abstract = {A study was undertaken to investigate the physical characteristics of eggs of farmed ostriches. A total of 75 eggs were measured for weight, length, width, shell thickness at lesser curvature, middle curvature and greater curvature. The mean weight was 1321&plusmn;219 g. The mean length and width were 15.77&plusmn;1.09 and 12.88&plusmn;0.97 cm, respectively. The mean shell thickness at lesser curvature was 1.67&plusmn;0.18 mm, at middle curvature 1.65&plusmn;0.16 mm and at greater curvature 1.64&plusmn;0.14 mm. There was no significant difference between the findings in this study as compared to those of ostrich eggs from other countries.}
