The Feathered Solution: Unveiling the Benefits of Bird Diapers
As bird owners who have and love our feathered companions who bring such joy and beauty into our lives, we strive above all else to give them a comfortable and hygienic environment.
Flypers (Bird Diapers) are a revolutionary accessory for birds and their owners, offering numerous benefits to you both.
In this blog post let’s explore the advantages of using Flypers (Bird Diapers) .
Firstly let us tell you that our Flypers have been made to the highest standards with your birds’ wellbeing foremost in our hearts and minds. Our design has been approved and overseen by a top avian vet and following our fitting and wearing instructions (seen in other blogs on our website). Your bird will come to no harm.
1. Flypers are designed to hang low from the bird’s vent ensuring that (if liners are
changed as regularly as directed, ) poop does not stick to the vent or feathers.
2. Hygiene and disease prevention. Maintaining proper hygiene is crucial for the
health and wellbeing of both birds and humans. By using Flypers you can
minimize the chances of bacterial or viral infections or any form of cross-
contamination by containing the bird waste and preventing its spread.
3. By investing in Flypers (bird diapers) your bird can enjoy lots of out of the cage
time, travelling and going on hygienic outings with you. An enhanced
experience you can have with your bird and this ensures an enjoyable time for
you both. Upon going out to public places you can avoid the embarrassment of
your clothes being poop stained or the event of you having a poop stained towel
wrapped around your shoulders. Your bird is going to be allowed into far more
public places wearing a hygienic Flyper ! Poop stained clothing or a poop
stained shoulder towel is not a pretty sight!
4. Whilst training your bird to wear a Flyper (bird diaper) (slowly and gently at your
bird’s pace), can be beneficial and rewarding. Treats and playtime come into
being here. This involves trust building and positive reinforcement. Some birds
accept a Flyper immediately and others take time and patience. Perseverance
and patience are the name of the game here. Keep going, the benefits of
flyper wearing are definitely well worth it. !!!
5. Once your bird is Flyper happy these bird diapers act as a protective barrier
for your furniture, clothing and general living space. Bird poop contains uric
acid and can stain and even destroy items in your home.
6. Cleaning up bird poop the traditional way might become hazardous to some
people, particularly those who may have lung infections or who are immuno-
compromised. Dried up bird poop is disrupted by scraping and sweeping. The
particles become airborne and can cause irritation in the bronchial passage.
7. When a bird wears a Flyper (Bird Diaper) the trend is that he/she is given a lot
more “out of the cage” time. This is really important for your bird as it will give
him more mobility, physical exercise and mental stimulation. It has been noted
that in many cases people can find the traditional clean up method challenging,
ongoing and overwhelming. Birds are then left confined to their cages for longer
periods or even in some cases PERMANENTLY ! We at BEVS BIRD
BOUTIQUE are committed to getting. birds out of cages. Our vision statement is
FREE THE BIRDS.
8. People also use birds as Emotional Assistance or Service animals. Birds are
taken into hospitals and old age homes to delight the unwell and elderly.
This would not be possible without the use of a Flyper.
9. Birds are known to have a high metabolic rate and they process food quickly.
Smaller birds eliminate more often than the bigger birds. for example
A budgie excretes 40 to 50 times per day.
A Macaw excretes about 15 – 20 times per day
A pigeon excretes every 15 – 30 minutes depending on their diet and activity
level.
This will indicate to you how often you would need to clean up after them in
a one day period. Their poop is often green and staining which adds extra
energy to your daily traditional bird poop clean up method.
10. Should you have children or babies in the home it would not be
hygienic to have them crawling or playing on the floor where an undiapered
bird has pooped.
