      Our Farm

      Why Ostriches

      Ostriches require 70% less water, 98% less land, and only emit a fraction of the greenhouse gases.

      Conserving the environment makes ostrich the sustainable alternative to beef.

      Chicks

      Ostrich chicks are quite frail compared to their poultry counterparts and require intensive care for the first four weeks. At three months, they are stable and require minimal care beyond food and water.

      Alpha

      The alpha of the flock is typically more aggressive and defensive while other males tend to be more docile

      Care

      We hatch, nurture, and sustain our flock. From chicks to twelve to fourteen months of age, for processing, and mature adults for breeding.

      Processing

      Optimal processing is twelve months of age; however, we process between twelve and fourteen months at a USDA facility with strict humane handing processes.

      Happy Shoppers

      Jennifer Clark

      Misty Morning Ranch was an absolute magical experience for me and my family.

      They took our reservation last minute. It completely made our week!

      The staff was extremely kind, accommodating and they really took the time to teach us about their ranch.

      We took 5 kids and they were so helpful and patient with us. I’ll definitely be going back. We also brought home ostrich steaks!
