Common ostriches usually weigh from 63 to 145 kilograms (139–320 lb)
or as much as one to two adult humans.[10][12] The Masai ostriches of East Africa (S. c. massaicus) average 115 kg (254 lb) in males and 100 kg (220 lb) in females
while the nominate subspecies
the North African ostrich (S. c. camelus)
was found to average 111 kg (245 lb) in unsexed adults. Exceptional male ostriches (in the nominate subspecies) can weigh up to 156.8 kg (346 lb). At sexual maturity (two to four years)
male common ostriches can be from 2.1 to 2.8 m (6 ft 11 in to 9 ft 2 in) in height
while female common ostriches range from 1.7 to 2.0 m (5 ft 7 in to 6 ft 7 in) tall.[10] New chicks are fawn in color
with dark brown spots.[13] During the first year of life
chicks grow at about 25 cm (10 in) per month.[citation needed] At one year of age
common ostriches weigh approximately 45 kilograms (100 lb). Their lifespan is typically 40–45 years.
The common ostrich (Struthio camelus), or simply ostrich, is a species of flightless bird native to certain large areas of Africa and is the largest living bird species. It is one of two extant species of ostriches, the only living members of the genus Struthio in the ratite order of birds. The other is the Somali ostrich (Struthio molybdophanes), which was recognized as a distinct species by BirdLife International in 2014 having been previously considered a very distinctive subspecies of ostrich.[3][4]Ostriches are large, flightless birds that have long legs and a long neck that protrudes from a round body. Males have bold black-and-white coloring that they use to attract females. Females, on the other hand, are light brown.
