The Welcome to Birdy Bootie - the #1 vet-recommended bumblefoot treatment and foot protection solution for chickens, ducks, and geese. Since 2009, backyard flock owners worldwide have trusted our USA-made protective booties to heal injuries and prevent foot problems in their beloved birds.

​━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
​OUR STORY

Birdy Bootie was born from necessity when our own rescued chickens developed bumblefoot infections and foot injuries. Traditional bandages fell off, got wet, and harbored bacteria. We needed a better solution - one that would stay on, promote healing, and allow birds to continue their natural behaviors.

What started as a homemade prototype to help our sanctuary birds evolved into an award-winning product trusted by veterinarians, rescue organizations, and backyard flock owners across 12+ countries. Today, Birdy Bootie continues to save birds' feet and improve quality of life for poultry with mobility challenges.

Why Birdy Bootie Works

✓ Stays Securely in Place - Adjustable straps prevent slipping and falling off, even during active foraging and dust bathing

✓ Promotes Natural Healing - Soft, breathable neoprene and NeoSponge materials with antibacterial silver-infused fabric keep wounds clean while allowing airflow

✓ Protects from Reinjury - Durable construction shields healing feet from rough ground, sharp objects, and pecking from flock mates

✓ Easy to Clean & Reuse - Machine washable design means one bootie can be used throughout the entire healing process

✓ Comfortable for Long-Term Wear - Birds can walk, perch, and move naturally without irritation or restriction

✓ Veterinarian Recommended - Trusted by avian vets as part of comprehensive bumblefoot treatment protocols

What is Bumblefoot?

Bumblefoot (pododermatitis) is a bacterial infection that causes painful swelling, abscesses, and lesions on poultry feet. Left untreated, it can lead to:

• Severe pain and lameness
• Systemic infection (septicemia)
• Permanent damage to foot structures
• Reduced quality of life
• Death in severe cases

Bumblefoot commonly affects chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, and other poultry kept in backyard flocks. Risk factors include rough or hard surfaces, improper roost height, obesity, poor nutrition, and foot injuries.

How Birdy Bootie Treats Bumblefoot

The Birdy Bootie creates an optimal healing environment by:

1. Protecting the Infection Site - Shields the wound from dirt, bacteria, and further trauma while medication works

2. Maintaining Cleanliness - Silver-infused fabric naturally inhibits bacterial growth, reducing reinfection risk

3. Preventing Self-Injury - Keeps birds from pecking at wounds and disturbing the healing process

4. Supporting Recovery - Cushioned construction reduces pressure on affected areas while birds walk

5. Enabling Normal Activity - Birds can continue eating, drinking, and socializing during treatment

Birdy Bootie Uses Beyond Bumblefoot

While bumblefoot treatment is our most common application, Birdy Bootie also helps with:

• Post-Surgery Protection - Guards surgical sites during recovery from foot procedures

• Frostbite Prevention - Protects feet from extreme cold temperatures and frozen ground

• Scaly Leg Mite Treatment - Covers medicated areas to enhance treatment effectiveness

• Geriatric Care - Cushions feet of elderly birds with arthritis or mobility challenges

• Show Bird Protection - Prevents foot damage during transport and shows

• Do not use in very hot weather - Although Birdy Bootie shields feet from hot pavement, sand, or metal surfaces, birds cool themselves through their feet (which is why your chicken might stand in water in hot weather); in very hot weather the birdy Bootie may inhibit the ability chickens to cool themselves.

Birdy Bootie - Bumblefoot Treatment & Foot Protection for Chickens

;
📏 Measure, Don't Guess
Poultry feet vary wildly! 

Too loose = falls off. 

Too tight = causes skin abrasion. 

Please use our measuring guide. We also offer a custom-made option if none of our standard sizes are suitable for your bird.

🔒 Secure the Fit
Every bootie comes with an optional leg band. Use it! It is key to keeping the shoe on active birds.

🕺 The "High Step" is Normal
Your bird may lift their legs high or freeze at first. They usually adjust within minutes.

☀️ Summer Safety Alert
Chickens cool through their feet. In high heat (85°F+), use our open-toe Sandals instead of full booties to prevent overheating.

✂️ Modification Tip: Chicken Sandals
The Chicken Sandals can be modified with scissors: You can cut the top leg cuff off to customize the fit.
