Do birds pee?

Question

Do birds pee?

Answer 1

They do.  But they have a cloaca, rather than separate openings for urine and f***s like mammals, the liquid urine and the more-solid f***s are eliminated together, along with white urates (another waste product from the kidneys.)

Answer 2

Bird "p**p" is actually both bird p**p and pee. Most people know that birds only have ONE external opening, called the vent, and the internal chamber, or cloaca, that is used for urination, defecation and reproduction. The urinary system of birds is different from mammals, as birds produce both urine and urates. Birds cannot concentrate their urine as well as mammals can. Birds also are uricotelic, meaning that they excrete the end product of nitrogen metabolism as uric acid, which is made in the liver and they excreted from the blood. Uric acid is the creamy white portion of the dropping. Urine is the clear portion. The f***s constitute the third portion of a dropping, and this consists of the solid portion, usually brown or green, depending on what the bird has been eating. A bird is able to urinate independently of defecating, or passing f***s, but most of the time, the bird will pass urine, urates and f***s at the same time. And now we know the compartments where these are stored prior to being passed, right?

Because knowledge is power! =D
