Buttercup – The International Celebriduck with a 3D Printed Prosthetic Foot!<\/span><\/h4>\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px” border=”none” inner_container=”true”][vc_column width=”5\/6″]

They say “If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it\u00a0probably is a duck”. But I am a duck, I REALLY am, even though I\u00a0was not\u00a0able to walk like a duck\u00a0when I hatched on Nov. 9th, 2012.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hi! My name is Buttercup and when I hatched my left foot was turned backwards. My mom Chase worked with me to try and get it turned around but it only partially turned.\u00a0 I was adopted to my new home at Feathered Angels Waterfowl Sanctuary in January of 2013 where there\u00a0are many ducks and geese!\u00a0 I was still hobbling around on my bad foot so my doctor, Dr. Shannon McGee recommended to amputate my foot.\u00a0 My new Dad Mike\u00a0created a new foot using the latest technology in 3D modeling and printing.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first prototype was finished in June, 2013 by making\u00a0molds of a 3D printed copy of my girlfriend Minnie’s left foot.\u00a0 I walked\u00a0with it immediately and became famous around the world.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I have been on The Today Show, Fox\u00a0& Friends, CNN, Nat Geo Wild in the U.S. and in the news in Japan, Germany, England, Australia, S. Korea, France to name a few!\u00a0 I am the only honorary Peabody ducks in 80 years history of the South’s Grand Hotel!<\/p>\n

During 2014 my foot design advanced to become fully 3D printed and has a bendable ankle with springs for support!<\/p>\n[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″]View my complete photo gallery!<\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″]<\/i>\u00a0 Follow my Facebook Journal!<\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″ fade_animation=”in-from-right” fade_animation_offset=”45px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row inner_container=”true” padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px” border=”none”][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row inner_container=”true” padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px” border=”none”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_raw_html]JTNDaWZyYW1lJTIwd2lkdGglM0QlMjI1NjAlMjIlMjBoZWlnaHQlM0QlMjIzMTUlMjIlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjIlMkYlMkZ3d3cueW91dHViZS5jb20lMkZlbWJlZCUyRjV0dlN3WDU0VE53JTIyJTIwZnJhbWVib3JkZXIlM0QlMjIwJTIyJTIwY29udHJvbHMlM0QlMjIwJTIyJTNFJTNDJTJGaWZyYW1lJTNF[\/vc_raw_html][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_raw_html]JTNDaWZyYW1lJTIwd2lkdGglM0QlMjI1NjAlMjIlMjBoZWlnaHQlM0QlMjIzMTUlMjIlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjIlMkYlMkZ3d3cueW91dHViZS5jb20lMkZlbWJlZCUyRkR5RDJtOWdGVElFJTIyJTIwZnJhbWVib3JkZXIlM0QlMjIwJTIyJTIwY29udHJvbHMlM0QlMjIwJTIyJTNFJTNDJTJGaWZyYW1lJTNF[\/vc_raw_html][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
