Do Birds Pee?

The answer lies in the fact that birds, unlike mammals, don't produce urine. Instead they excrete nitrogenous wastes in the form of uric acid, which emerges as a white paste. And uric acid doesn't dissolve in water easily.

Do birds pee or just poop?

Although it can't be said that birds pee like mammals and other animals do, they do eliminate liquid waste and eject it from their bodies. However, it's mixed together with solid waste or feces and usually expelled from the cloaca as a bird takes off to fly.

Do birds pee yes or no?

Birds convert nitrogen to uric acid instead: this is metabolically more costly but saves water and weight, as it is less toxic and doesn't need to be diluted so much. Birds therefore don't have a urethra, and don't pee - all waste leaves via the anus.
