Best Answer

When a male ostrich is ready to mate he will swell up his neck and make a noise that only a female ready to mate as well will respond to. He will then get down on his knees open his wings and swing them back and forth while his neck is still bulged. Which then the male and female will mate, the hen will lay eggs and have chicks.

Ostriches have the same reproductive organs as humans, and reproduce the same way.

If you want some specific answer, just put "the union of gametes" or whatever.
