Birdo's Eggs[1] are projectiles spat or sometimes thrown from Birdos. They can be plain white, but have also been shown to have pink or magenta spots in different shapes in some appearances.
History
Super Mario series
Super Mario Bros. 2
Birdos and their eggs debut in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and the Western Super Mario Bros. 2. They are depicted plain white and are spat by usually pink Birdos but sometimes also the red type. Picking up eggs and throwing them at Birdo is usually the only way to damage her, but objects such as Mushroom Blocks can as well, if they are nearby. If a Birdo's Egg hits a wall, it rebounds very lightly and falls offscreen. The player character can ride on top of an egg, something that is required at one point in World 4-3 to cross a wide ocean gap. The Game Over screen in the Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Advance remakes both show Birdo holding an egg.
Giant eggs are spit by Robirdo, a boss exclusive to Super Mario Advance. They work the same as Birdo's Eggs, but the weight and size of them can make it take potentially longer to pick them up. While Birdo's Eggs do not appear in the Mario Bros. remake, the eggs in the game use nearly identical sprites.
BS Super Mario USA
Birdo's Eggs in BS Super Mario USA functioned similarly as before, though Birdos could throw several in the air, including sometimes larger ones.
The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!
In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, Birdos try to spit their eggs at the protagonists in some episodes.
In "Jungle Fever", one Birdo is able to use its egg to bring down an Albatoss carrying Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and Toad.
In "Toad Warriors", King Koopa assigns three Birdos to act as the guns of his three State Troopa cars by firing eggs at the Rebel Fort while perched atop the vehicles. After the Mario Bros. arrive, King Koopa decides to use the Thunderbirdo to attack the fort. Thunderbirdo is driven in on another vehicle, controlled by Mouser, where it proceeds to attack the fort with a gigantic, explosive egg. Afterwards, King Koopa uses normal Birdo fire until a rebel force, which includes Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and Toad, leave the fort using a tanker full of spaghetti sauce as bait.
In "Crocodile Mario" when Mario and Luigi pass by some Birdoroos' territory on a raft, several of them launch an onslaught of eggs in their direction, which they barely manage to dodge.
Nintendo Comics System
As seen in the Nintendo Comics System comics "Bedtime for Drain-Head" and "Betrayal Most Proper", after losing control of the Mushroom Kingdom, Bowser employs Birdos as castle guards. Mario battles these guards on two occasions. Under the delusion that he is Dirk Drain-Head in "Bedtime for Drain-Head," Mario enters Bowser's Castle to save Toad. After laying waste to a large number of enemies outside of the castle, a Birdo blocks Mario's path and shoots eggs at him as he tries to enter the castle. However, Mario quickly picks them up and throws them back, defeating this Birdo similarly to the Birdo in Super Mario Bros. 2.
The second encounter with Birdos occurs in "Betrayal Most Proper" as Mario and Toad attempt to rescue Wooster, who are then attacked by Birdos in Bowser's Castle. When their movement becomes impaired by a conveyor belt moving in the opposite direction, the Birdos begin firing eggs. Rather than defeat the Birdos, they simply run off.
Super Mario Bros. & Friends: When I Grow Up
The coloring page for Zoo Keeper in Super Mario Bros. & Friends: When I Grow Up shows Mario giving a Birdo her egg in a bowl.
Satella-Q
A Birdo's Egg is seen being held by a Birdo tower statue in a cracked state in Satella-Q.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, a Birdo hatches from a giant egg known as Shelly. Birdo can speak to Mario through the eggshell and requests a battle with him and his partners, and their attacks eventually split the egg open. Now hatched, the Birdo can attack Mario and the others with explosive Eggberts, rather than normal Birdo's Eggs, although Birdo holds a Birdo's Egg during battle.
This is the first game to feature a type of Birdo's Egg having spots.
Super Smash Bros. series
Birdo's Eggs are depicted as two-dimensional Super Mario All-Stars sprites in the stage Mushroom Kingdom II in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Birdo comes out from the side of the stage and shoot eggs, hurting any player who comes in contact with them. Like in Super Mario Bros. 2, these eggs could be jumped upon and picked up by the playable characters. Birdo can also be damaged by throwing the eggs back at her.

Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
Birdo's Eggs are the Special Item of Birdo in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!. They are a cosmetic alteration of Yoshi's Eggs, being covered in pink spots. When thrown, the eggs home in on the nearest drivers, flipping their kart if it hits before releasing three random items, which can include Bob-ombs, Stars, Mushrooms, Red or Green Shells, Fake Item Boxes, or Bananas. Birdo's Eggs break if they hit items or course hazards and self-destruct automatically if they roam around for too long. Birdo's Eggs and the Green Fireball are the only two items that cannot be obtained by Petey Piranha and King Boo.
Mario Kart Tour
Birdo's Eggs reappear in Mario Kart Tour as Birdo's special item once again, as well as the special item of Birdo (Light Blue), Birdo (Yellow), Birdo (Orange), Birdo (Red), and Birdo Mii Racing Suit. They function like they do in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, and like the Yoshi's Egg. Its design has been reverted back to being a spotless egg. When Birdo's Egg+ is active, the egg will be bigger, and will drop an extra item after hitting a racer.
Mario & Luigi series
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga / Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions
Birdo Eggs appear in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Birdo can spit out flaming eggs in a wild, sporadic way.

One egg holds Popple; the other three each contain Designbomb-like enemies that will rush forward after their egg is broken open and need to be jumped over.
