How much are ostriches worth?

Question

I know that it's a random question, but I HAVE TO KNOW!!!!

Answer 1

Some European figures:

"Eggs and chicks can cost 1,300 Euros ($1,500), even with a high mortality rate. Sexed chick pairs a few months old can cost four times that amount, since their conformation is known, but mortality is still very high. Yearling pairs, with lower mortality risk but not yet sexually mature, sell for approximately 18,000 Euros ($21,000), and pre-breeder pairs (two years old) cost double. Mature, proven breeder pairs are insurable and can command 35,000-70,000 Euros ($40,000–$85,000)."

WOW!
