Some practical techniques for the ostirich farming were studied with a pair of young birds, which were reared for 7 months in the outdoor pen. The fencing was suitable and offer some benefits with wire-mesh net (stitch size, 7 cm), the nylon net (stitch size, 3.5 cm), and the wooden palette. The live weight was easily measured by the experimental weighing apparatus, which was made up with the passageway and the dial platform scale. The bird was caught at the back of the neck and pulled over the head with the experimental blindfold. The blood was collected intravenously from the birds by only hooding or by fixing with the experimental framework, suggesting that they were useful for the veterinary treatments
