The Struthio camelus or Ostrich is a species of flightless bird native to certain large areas of Africa.
The Struthio camelus or Ostrich is the largest living species of bird and largest living dinosaur. It lays the largest eggs of any living bird.
Males stand 6 ft 11 in to 9 ft in. tall and weigh 220–290 lb., whereas females are about 5 ft 9 in to 6 ft 3 in. tall and weigh 200–260 lb.

Struthio camelus or Ostrich chicks are fawn in color, with dark brown spots. After three months they start to gain their juvenile plumage, which is steadily replaced by adult-like plumage during their second year.
At four or five months old, they are already about half the size of an adult bird, and after a year they reach adult height, but not till they are 18 months old will they be fully as heavy as their parents.
The feathers of adult Struthio camelus or Ostrich males are mostly black, with white primaries and a white tail. Females and young males are grayish-brown and white.
The head and neck of both male and female ostriches are nearly bare, with a thin layer of down. The skin of the female’s neck and thighs is pinkish gray, while the male’s is gray or pink dependent on subspecies.
