House Ducks

A World of Duck Diapers

1. Injured or sick bird - Keeping an injured bird in the house can help them recover away from extreme temperatures and nosy flockmates who might injure the bird further. It can make monitoring healing easier, and using a diaper can allow a bird to stretch their legs and get much needed exercise in a protected indoor space without sacrificing your carpet.


2. Special Needs bird - It doesn't take long into chicken keeping to meet a special needs bird, although special needs birds can be ducks and geese too. Many chicks from hatcheries are found with crossed beaks, leg deformities, other physical ailments, and occasionally mental disabilities. These chicks often hold a special place in the heart of their owner after bonding through close care. Special needs birds who have been hand raised by a dedicated human often prefer human companionship to that of other fowl, and learn to rely on their human helper for simple tasks like eating and moving from place to place. Many of these special feathered friends become house pets when their humans can no longer bear to say goodbye to them out in the coop.


3. House Birds - any fowl type can become a house pet with the right set up! Diapers are often a big part of a house fowl's life, while not any bird will be a suitable house pet, those who do get an extra leg of freedom from diapers! Being able to do all the things you love to do in the house with your pet becomes just a little bit easier when you don't have the constant fear of poop hanging over your snuggle sessions. There are many many different ways to live with a house bird, but most of them involve a diaper for anywhere from a quick hour of playtime to full time 24 hour diapering like a human toddler.

There are an infinite number of reasons someone may choose to diaper, but generally it all boils down to love of a specific bird. People grow to love their pets like children and diapers are just one more way to facilitate closeness and quality time spent together.
