Kiwi lay an average of 1-2 eggs each breeding season. Occasionally they will lay three eggs.

It is possible that, over its lifetime, a female kiwi may lay more than 100 eggs, but there appears to be considerable disagreement over the lifespan of the kiwi. The New Zealand Government's Department of Conservation website states that the kiwi's life span averages 50 years, while it is believed the Rowi, of the South Island, might even live up to 100 years. In this case, the kiwi wcould easily lay more than 100 eggs over its lifetime.

On the other hand, Te Ara, the New Zealand Encyclopedia, states that the kiwi's average life span is between 10 and 30 years. Under these circumstances, it would be virtually impossible for a kiwi to lay more than 100 eggs.
