Explanation

The ostrich lays the largest egg of any living bird species. An ostrich egg typically weighs about 1.4 kilograms (3 pounds) and measures approximately 15 centimeters (6 inches) in length. One ostrich egg is roughly equivalent in volume to two dozen chicken eggs and contains the largest single cell currently known to exist.
