Bird Diapers 2008
A bird needs a tail knob and stiff tail feathers to wear a diaper.  Young birds
will most likely not have their stiff tail feathers until they are about 4 weeks
old.

These custom reusable garments will allow your bird to have freedom of
movement in your home without the mess. Correctly worn and maintained, the
bird’s feathers will stay clean under most circumstances. The droppings are
channeled away from the bird into a containment pouch to keep the feathers
from getting soiled regardless whether the bird is standing or lying down. The
design allows the bird to preen and access its oil gland and will not interfere
with its everyday activities.  The diaper is adjustable, and is suitable for both
growing and adult birds.

Most diapers are made from either a synthetic knit or a swimsuit fabric unless
otherwise marked. These fabrics are easily washable, quick drying, and will
stretch to allow ease of movement and maximize comfort. Some patterns are
available only as non-stretch cotton blends. The diapers are breathable and can
be used with or without the disposable plastic liner. Each order comes with
sample liners. Additional liners can be made at home from easily available
materials at pennies per liner. If the diaper is used without the plastic liner, it
is recommended to use a piece of feminine absorbent pad to cover the sides and
bottom of the diaper to form a cup.
