Has anyone tried chicken diapers?

I've sewn a few diapers for my girls and am pretty darn proud at how they turned out. My hens are less enthusiastic. Both have spent a good half an hour flailing pretty wildly trying to shake the garment. How long will it take for them to become adjusted? Anything else I should know about using these?

I would worry about the dropping sticking to there bottoms and blocking the poop whole and causing health prob and death

I'm not big on the idea, if their vent (butt) gets clogged with crusted poo, it can be fatal

Pasting isn't an issue. The diaper is basically a cup that catches the droppings, keeping it away from the vent. And the diapers aren't worn for extended periods, just for short indoor visits.

It juuuuuuust might work! I kinda like the idea though, i was thinking that it would be like a human diaper

Do post pics if you can!

I'd post more but I'm on an iPad and can't do much

google has pictures and YouTube has videos. They're fun!
