  • You have to be extremely careful not to overfeed...avoid any reckless answers you might get here.

      It is food that ostriches eat.

      I can’t make it any simpler than I already have. Listen, let’s get married to each other again and we can make this the theme of our daily lives, finding out what truly is ostrich food.

    First find the ostrich food with the highest value for resale and then we will talk.

    Feeding
    They mainly feed on seeds, shrubs, grass, fruit and flowers; occasionally they also eat insects such as locusts.

    I don't know, but not likely. I have never heard of a bird that eats onions.

    That’s what I suspected, I’m concerned now that this onion garden isn’t going to be beneficial to me in any way. I’m going to stop wasting water on it.

    I would guess they're omnivores, as are many birds. 

    Whatever sort of insects and seeds, plants they would find in their natural habitat. Or, there are companies doing good business manufacturing and selling processed diets for pretty much any kind of animal that exists. That wouldn't be ideal, but would probably keep it alive.

    No. Not onions! Don't make me start worrying about some fake ostrich bird in Canada, please!

    I’m gonna feed my ostrich onions. I think it’s the right thing to do.
