Tasty eggs too. You can literally feed your entire family with just one of them. 
I am surprised its red meat. I would have thought it would have looked like chicken. I think I will stick to ostrich boots.
Also, I dont like to be that close to them. When they attack humans, they go for the eyes.

It's really good, lean meat. There was a resturaunt I used to go to, that had Ostrich, buffalo, and other exotics.

There was an ostrich farm I took my kid to just south of the Bay area during the pandemic.
You could feed the ostriches kibble but in order to do so, they gave you what amounted to dustpan on sticks.
After the first feeding, it was pretty obvious why you didn't want to attempt any kind of hand feeding.
They were total a-holes and would attack the dustpans pretty violently in a bid to get all the kibble.
I wouldn't mess with one.

Love those seats. I'd like to recover mine like that.
They peck like chickens, but obviously much larger beaks. They're curious so they peck at you trying to figure out what you are and if you're food. One of them got me pretty good on the bicep, had a bruise for about a week.
At that farm, not when I was there, they were corralling some of the adults and one male had enough so he kicked a 4x4 fence post and split it in half. They have some seriously strong legs.

Here's one next to a chicken egg for reference. They're the largest egg laid on the planet.Tasty eggs too. You can literally feed your entire family with just one of them.

Used to go there all the time back when I was in college. Quality has slipped some since covid hit but I still love it. Don't think they have the ostrich burgers anymore.It's really good, lean meat. There was a resturaunt I used to go to, that had Ostrich, buffalo, and other exotics.
