Hi lovely people!
Since getting my Muscovy duck Penny I’ve been learning the ropes of indoor duck owning. One of the biggest frustrations has been finding a diaper, and while I wish I had the sewing talents to make one I simply don’t. However, thinking about this did give me an idea!
Penny is at an age where she’s just now starting to fly so when I take her outside for a little walk I’m a bit worried about her taking off. She probably won’t, but you never know! So I started to look into duck harnesses without the diaper attachment. I couldn’t find any that I liked so I decided to make my own!
I present to you, Penny’s Ensemble!
The purple band on the right goes over the head and the purple band on the left goes over the tail to sit behind the legs.
It has an adjustable waistband with a slider and buttons for 3 different size adjustments.
The pink belly band has a snap at the end so you can detach it and make it easier to put on.
There will also be a D ring along the back strap somewhere to attach a leash to.
Everything is sewn by hand since I don’t have a machine so forgive the slightly sloppy stitching!
Now my question to you guys is, would you buy something like this? I’m thinking about offering it on Etsy but would love to get some input from people on here if it’ll even sell
View of it on. Wings will be tucked over it but this is just to show how it’ll fit!
Don’t mind the loose snap, I was still figuring out which sizing was working best haha
Thank you guys!
