Skeiding Ostrich Farm

We stayed 2 nights here and on the first morning went on the truck to feed the animals and ostriches, this took about an hour.



There we were sitting on the patio of our cottage when a fully grown ostrich appears in our part of the garden. Is the ostrich friendly? Is it a pet? Or is it an escapee? We soon found out when the 2 house dogs, which were with us, ran at the ostrich and shooed it away. It was an escapee and took 4 chaps to round it up. Phew!!!




The meals here were superb, ostrich was a speciality, the springbok pie and bobotie were also excellent.
