Yes, owls do have amniotic eggs. Like all birds, they lay eggs that are encased in a hard shell, which provides protection and prevents desiccation. Amniotic eggs are a characteristic of reptiles and birds, allowing them to reproduce in a terrestrial environment. The eggs contain membranes, including the amnion, that help support the developing embryo.
