How long do kiwis live?

Kiwi are not born. They are birds and, like all birds, hatch from eggs.

Female kiwi lay their first egg when they are 3-5 years old. Breeding season begins in June, the New Zealand winter, and continues through to about March of the following year.

It takes 70-80 days for the eggs to incubate, and hatching may take up to three days.
