Birdy BootieBirdy Bootie Chicken Shoes for Injured Feet – Protective Neoprene Footwear for Chicken, Open-Toe Design for Bumblefoot Relief, Made in USA - Standard, 3" Max. Inside Width, Gray

My Rhode Island Red Henrietta would like to say cooh cooh cooh for helping her foot! My vet recommended this product after finding Bumblefoot on her right foot. The shoe goes on very easily and is very sturdy. The Velcro straps are convenient and you can adjust the fit to just the right pressure for your bird baby. I put the shoe on her foot and took it off once a week to check on it and clean it. After three weeks, the bumble foot was gone! The boot material is antimicrobial and kept her foot clean and odor free! I also love how it comes in a variety of colors. At first she didn't want to wear the boot around her chicken sisters and acted embarrassed, but I complimented her a lot and said it made her look like a princess, and she was strutting around showing off in no time! Thanks so much for this bootie! It made Henrietta feel so much better!

There is no fault with the Booties. They are well constructed and fit my duck. I was hoping that it would help with the healing process of bumblefoot/infection on one of the duck's toes. The boot did not provide enough structure/support for the situation. Since it is spring here, and rains a lot here, her foot, after a day in the boot, looked like she had been in a tub for 24 hours, all shriveled and pruny. The gauze was still in place while inside the bootie, but was soaked and it was obvious that the duck was in a lot of pain as well as the infected site had gotten a little more swollen. It was a step backwards in the healing process. Going back to what I was doing using thin layers of a pool noodle glued to a round disk of corrugated plastic sign board that I attach to the bottom of the duck's foot with Vet wrap. The duck is able to walk better with the cushion plus firm structure under her webbed foot, has less pain, and can keep up with her buddies. Once the infection subsides, I might be able to use the booties to prevent further chance of injury to her feet? Just not going to work at this point of the healing process.

These were way too small for my goose but thankfully I was able to pass them onto a duck rescue who was very excited to receive them.

It was 100% impossible for me to get our ducks foot into this thing. I couldnt use them at all. Great idea, but needs a better design.

JIC. Where there are chickens there are germs and where there are germs, there’s always a lieliehood for a bumblefoot to pop up. In the past, I would just take the normal steps when dealing with the bumbles and then wrap with a waterproof bandage wrap. But this time around, I have a rooster with a chronic case that I can’t seem to beat. I’ve peobBly spent at least(or maybe double) the cost of these booties in the last year on the bandages and supplies to deal with his foot and it’s ongoing. I figured I’d try these and I’m wishing I’d have done it a looooong time ago. They’re slightly tricky to get on at first, but once they’ve been on and off a couple of times, they seem to soften up and are easier to manipulate. Has definitely made protecting the wounds much easier. I only hope it’s not too late for my poor boy’s big bumbly foot.These are definitely a must have for the first aid kit of any poultry keeper.

My vet recommended these booties to help my hen heal from bumblefoot. I trimmed the end of the toes just a smidge to help get the booties on easier. I replace the bootie daily, sometimes twice a day if needed, so it's good to have a couple of pairs on hand. They're easy to wash in the sink (I use warm water and unscented detergent) and they air dry over night. They're working great, they provide a soft and protective cushion which helps the foot heal faster. We're very happy with these booties and highly recommend to anyone with chickens.

Well made but run small. I have a standard sized Barred Rock and could not get the shoe on at all. They were not cheap so I’m stuck with them- guess I will cut them up some and re- make them.

My poor zombie somehow got bumble foot. After 2 weeks in my bathroom she was ready to get back out to her friends but still needed foot protection. I found these shoes orderedAnd they shipped the next day (thank you for that!) she’s feisty and initially we fought to get them on…. But she now relents. She had a little trouble at first and didn’t love them but now they don’t seem to bother her in the least.We got the medium and she’s a female Indian runner so on the smaller side for a duck but not call duck small.. these have some extra room but work well on her. We don’t use the back toe hole I did initially and she just took them right off. There can definitely be a learning curve to figuring out how to get them on perfectly so the duck is happy and keeps them on :-) … according to my mom who duck sat while I was out of town for work she made her cry fighting her over the shoes (My mom not the duck). They’re made well and high quality.
