    Wait, male chickens don’t have dicks? I refuse to believe that and I also refuse to taint my already disgusting search history further by looking it up.

    This might be one of the rare occasions we could use RFK’s expertise.

      No, most birds have a cloaca, which is a single sphincter that lets shit and baby-making stuff out. Sperm for males, eggs for females. When birds mate it’s like a sloppy kiss with buttholes passing sperm from the male to the female. There are some birds with penises, about 3% of species. Ducks, geese, swans, ostriches, and emus are the more notable ones.
