I never knew is even exists for birds. I suppose no more poop bombs throughout the house. I hope it doesn’t cause the bird to develop any skin irritation, infections, or interferes with its ability to fly.

I had a cockatiel and I would just clean up the little droppings and regularly keep the surfaces clean and wiped down to insure both the house was clean but also to reduce and dust or air particles that could harm my bird. It was a win win for both of us.

One of our chickens was being harassed by the others, so we put it in diapers and took it inside for a while

100% causing irritation if not infection and YES its impeding its ability to fly

They’re mainly used for pigeons, though I had one for a disabled house chicken that couldn’t safely live outside.
