Bird Egg Production: Understanding the Process

Birds' eggs are made through a complex biological process involving the female bird’s
reproductive system. The main components involved in egg production are the ovary and oviduct. In the
ovary, yolks are produced in follicles and ovulation occurs as yolks are released from the follicles. The
yolk then enters the oviduct where layers are added – first the albumen (egg white), then membranes,
and finally the shell. The full egg exits the female’s body through the cloaca. The whole process takes
around 24-36 hours to complete.
