Do birds have an endoskeleton or exoskeleton?
Birds do not have exoskeletons, because they are vertebrates. This means they have a backbone and an internal skeleton for protection and support.
What animals have Endoskeletons and exoskeletons?
Mammals, reptiles, birds, fish and amphibians are vertebrates with endoskeletons (skeletons inside their bodies). Their skeletons provide support and protection and help them to move. Insects, spiders and shellfish are some of the invertebrates that have exoskeletons.

Do Carolina chickadees mate for life?

What kind of life does a Carolina chickadee have?
Carolina Chickadees actively defend an individual space, keeping at least 2.2 feet, and sometimes at least 5 feet, between individuals; when two are closer than that, the dominant bird may make gargle calls. At feeders, each bird typically takes a seed and carries it to a branch somewhat isolated from other chickadees to eat.
What kind of competition does a Carolina chickadee have?
They compete with Downy Woodpeckers, Brown Creepers, and Tufted Titmice for these cavities. Carolina Chickadees actively defend an individual space, keeping at least 2.2 feet, and sometimes at least 5 feet, between individuals; when two are closer than that, the dominant bird may make gargle calls.
