The kiwi is a small, flightless bird endemic to New Zealand. Being flightless, its rudimentary wings are so small as to be completely invisible, and it has no external tail. The female is larger than the male, and stands up to 50cm tall, depending on the species. Its long, thin bill averages from 9-20 cm in length, again depending on the species. The kiwi has sharp-clawed legs which are surprisingly widely spaced apart, meaning that it walks with an unusual, rolling gait.
There are several species of kiwi.
The kiwi's egg is very large - about six times the size of that of another bird of the same size. It is about 120mm long and 80mm in diameter. The colour is beige or a pale green.

Kiwi eggs are unusual for their size. A kiwi's egg is 120mm long and 80mm in diameter, which is a little smaller than an emu's egg and considerably smaller than an ostrich egg. However, the kiwi's egg is the largest in proportion to the body size of the bird. The egg is about six times the size of an egg from another bird of similar size.
No, kiwis lay eggs. The kiwi lays the biggest egg in proportion to its size of any bird in the world, so even though the kiwi is about the size of a domestic chicken, it is able to lay eggs that are about six times the size of a chicken's egg. Eggs are smooth in texture, and are ivory or green-ish white.
The largest bird is the ostrich, whose eggs weigh more than three pounds. However, in proportion to its size, the kiwi bird lays the biggest eggs for its body size. The kiwi is about the size of a chicken and its egg is almost as big as the egg of an emu, a much larger bird than the kiwi.
The kiwi's egg is about six times the size of that of another bird of the same size. It is about 120mm long and 80mm in diameter. A kiwi's eggs are almost as big as those of the emu (150mm long and about the same diameter) and are one of the largest in proportion to body size of any bird.
Snake eggs are usually white and oval in shape. Though size and color may vary in species.

No, the colour and the size of the egg are not related. Breed determines the size and contents of an egg, not the color. Smaller chickens tend to lay smaller eggs, and the colour depends on the colour of the hen's ear-flap.
Size and shape are descriptors of the physical attributes. Others would include colour, lustre, and opacity.
All eggs are the same shape - usually an oval or teardrop.
