Actually, none. The term is a slang term, to indicate the difference between Colonel (insignia is an eagle, or "bird") and a Lt. Colonel, insignia silver oak leaf. The Army, Marines, and Air Force all have Colonels (Navy calls their Captains) but the term is Colonel, not Bird Colonel, or Full Colonel.

On the lighter side, Col. Harlan Sanders of Kentucky Fried Chicken fame might be considered a "bird colonel".

MOS (Military Occupation Specialty) refers to the job being done by the person, not their rank. Colonel is a rank, so there is no MOS for a Colonel.
