2019 House Duck Owners!

Anybody got a video on how to put a duck diaper on? And what you use in the inside of the diaper to keep the mess contained? I’m looking to have one of my ducks to be car buddy when making short trips to town.

Which one? I used half s baby diaper inside the diaper harness I had for Opie.

Hey! I'm not on that list! I'm gonna pout some!
LOL seriously, Speedy and Fancy <and the twins> were indoor ducks until I had to move.

And now that I found a place, they'll be allowed in again. I think they see my house as the big coop and they love to explore it.

Speedy and Sugar will probably get a house inside too - soda will probably wanna be inside, but the twins, they like being outside.

Your flock is beautiful!!!
I see fish tanks, I keep a whole bunch too! The pigeon is adorable!

Depends on the diaper? There’s a few different kinds. As for liner, I’ve used menstrual pads. Just have to find the size that works for you

I've tried a few different kinds of diaper but this one seems to be the easiest. Just put a feminine pad in there or a baby diaper for lining. Slip back over tail and get the neck through neck straps.

Cheap and easy options!

They're all slightly different but here is a video to get a general idea! Also if they're too lose anywhere, I use clip on hair bows and stick them on the straps (either on back or chest) to hold it in proper position.

Thanks guys! I’ll have to watch the video when I get home from work!!

@Dandy's mom made one that looks super easy to make - she is a house duck mom too!

@Goldfire7 not overly experienced keeper but she looks like a grizzled color form of tumber, or possibly a Homer mix I have a pair that look similar! The male is a owl cross and the hens a mix of unknown origin shhhhh lots of pigeon owners are for purebreds, but I like my mixes ps the white bird whith feathered legs in 2nd pic next to the male, is one of my figuritas, I think owl breeds are adorable!
