Two birds.
One clear model.
Start with a breeding pair. Explore an egg-sales program designed around a straightforward split.
The proposed American Bird Co. model pays the owner $5,000 for each qualifying fertile egg sold for $6,000 through the brokerage. American Bird Co. retains $1,000 as its brokerage fee.
At 12 eggs sold per year and $1,000 monthly care, the model generates $48,000 in annual operating cash flow before other costs and taxes.
Calculate the opportunityPayments depend on actual sales, egg qualification, buyer demand, and written agreement terms. The proposed prices are program assumptions, not independently verified market prices.
One pair.
A ten-year picture.
Put $69,000 to work in the proposed breeding-pair model. Follow the money from the first sale to year ten.
This example assumes 12 qualifying fertile eggs actually sell each year at $5,000 to the owner, with $1,000 monthly room and board.

Not an annual return
Illustrative example, not an actual investor result. Before taxes and excluded costs. Assumes uninterrupted sales and care costs for ten years; no resale value.

Build your scenario
Fixed inputs: $69,000 purchase price; $5,000 owner proceeds per egg sold; 10 years. Annual sales are used because breeding is seasonal. No production ramp-up is included.

Includes the initial purchase once. Cash after care is before other costs and taxes; figures assume the same annual sales throughout.
Follow every dollar.
The brokerage fee is already deducted from the owner’s $5,000 proceeds. It is not deducted twice.

A real responsibility.
Healthy birds, appropriate space, proper feed, and experienced care are the foundation of any breeding program.
Ostriches breed seasonally. Rutgers Extension reports 30–50 eggs per laying season; production does not establish fertility or a sale. The 12-sales annual scenario here is an assumption, not a biological guarantee.
The ten-year period is a modeling choice. It does not establish a particular pair’s remaining breeding life.
Read the Rutgers Extension guideGood questions.
Clear answers.
What does $69,000 cover?
The proposed price is for one male and one female ostrich. Request written details on age, health, breeding history, ownership transfer, delivery, care arrangements, and all included services before purchasing.
Is the $5,000 egg payment guaranteed?
No guarantee is established by this page. The model uses a proposed $5,000 payment for each qualifying fertile egg actually sold. Request a signed agreement identifying the purchaser, acceptance criteria, payment timing, and any limits or conditions.
Does the pair produce an egg every month?
Not necessarily. Breeding and laying are seasonal, fertility varies, and egg production is different from completed egg sales. The base model averages 12 fertile eggs sold over a year.
What happens if fewer eggs sell?
Care costs continue. At six eggs sold per year, this model produces $18,000 annual operating cash flow; with no egg sales, it loses $12,000 annually before other costs. Use the calculator to explore these outcomes.
What should I review before buying?
Review veterinary records, documented breeding performance, care costs, egg buyer demand, signed purchase and brokerage terms, and who bears loss if birds die, fail to breed, or eggs do not sell. Prices and future resale value can change.
