Do birds have periods?
While birds have a breeding season where they are fertile and can mate they do not have a menstrual cycle. Usually the timing of their breeding season is based on the amount of daylight hours they are exposed to. ChaCha on!

No. Menstruation is a process where by the uterus sheds its inner layer when an egg is not fertilized. Birds do not have a uterus.

Birds do not have periods. Pigs, rabbits, monkeys and some types of dogs do, but not birds. Thank you for using ChaCha!
