Well I know the usual, standard Big Bird puppet from the show at the time was used for scenes that took place on Sesame Street.
I think there might have actually been THREE different puppets used in FTB.
There was the normal one that they used on the show at the time:

There was this one, which looks really similar but appears to have a few less feathers on his head. His head looks just slightly more messy and I think his neck is longer and skinnier:


And the blue bird puppet, which I heard was later modified and used as a different character.

Yup, the torso was reused for the obscure 'Blue Bird' superhero from the '80s.

Yeah, I don't particularly care for the current puppet. I think his head's too big and round, but I did really like the one Caroll used from 2004-his retirement. I think Noel MacNeal uses Caroll's BB now.
