This must be a devil bird! No God would create something that isn’t either a male or female! No in betweens! /s
We need to make a law forcing it to be one or the other. The way it is now is unnatural and confusing! /s
Exactly! Next thing you know someone is gonna say it’s sexuality is fluid. Think of the children!
Ooh, look at me! I’m making people happy! I’m the Magical Man from Happy-Land, in a gumdrop house on Lollipop Lane!
Oh by the way I was being sarcastic

TAKE IT AWAY ITS WOKE ITS A LIAR
A true gynandromorph!
Is it hermaphroditic or is it just the plumage colors are usually one color for males another for female and this bird has both colors?
What’s in the bird’s pants?
The article mentions double fertilisation, so I guess it’s hermaphroditic?
If it’s like the chicken I read about previously, it’s literally half one, half the other, as if you split two birds in half lengthwise and mixed up the pairing when you put them back together.
It probably has a cloaca, so externally nothing
DOES IT HAVE A PECKER?
Excerpt:
Professor Spencer says gynandromorphs – animals with both male and female characteristics in a species that usually have separate sexes – are important for our understanding of sex determination and sexual behaviour in birds.
The main groups in which the phenomenon has been recorded include animal species which feature strong sexual dimorphism; most often insects, especially butterflies, crustaceans, spiders, even lizards and rodents.
“This particular example of bilateral gynandromorphy – male one side and female the other – shows that, as in several other species, either side of the bird can be male or female.
“The phenomenon arises from an error during female cell division to produce an egg, followed by double-fertilization by two sperm,” he explains.
This was the very first thing that came to mind
