Darwin's rhea or the lesser rhea (rhea pennata) is a large flightless bird, the smaller of the two extant species of rheas It is found in the altiplano and patagonia in south america. They can lay up to 60 eggs total The male incubates the eggs for about six weeks and cares for the chicks alone
When male rheas are taking care of their young, they will charge at any. Rhea eggs measure about 130 mm × 90 mm (5.1 in × 3.5 in) and weigh 600 g (21 oz) on average They are thus less than half the size of an ostrich egg Rheas can be either light grey or white in color
Male rheas will dig a nest in the ground where females will lay their eggs
Then the male will lay on these eggs for up to 40 days until they all. A former fourth species of rhea, rhea nana, was described by lydekker in 1894 based on a single egg found in patagonia, [12] but today no major authorities consider it valid If you are planning to hatch rheas, you will need an incubator
