There is no difference in chromosome number between male and female birds, although it is worth noting that unlike in mammals, female birds are the heterogametic sex. This means that while a female mammal has two copies of the X chromosome, a female bird has both a W and a Z chromosome (the avian equivalent of our X and Y).

Chromosome number varies wildly among bird species, and can be very difficult to determine because birds have a large number of 'microchromosomes' which are tough to tell apart.
