The plural form should be bigfoots, not bigfeet. Otherwise , in this particular case, one may reason that the singular form should be bigfeet too as the creature certainly has two feet, not one.
Bigfoot is a coined term anyway and should be taken as a single word in which the separate components are no longer operative. In that case, simply adding an "s" to denote plural is sufficient.

If you absolutely must pluralize the name of a creature called a Bigfoot, it would be Bigfoots. Think of using it in a sentence. With 'Bigfeet', you lose the meaning. In sentence form....
Three guys dressed up as Bigfoots came walking down the street. I called the cops.

There are other names for Bigfoot... Sasquatch... some people would say Yeti (though I tend to think of Yeti as from a different setting).

I've always heard the plural form as "Bigfoots".
Even though it (supposively) has two feet. we still call the creature "Bigfoot" because it is a major identifable characteristic (i.e. Blue-footed Booby). Plus, we're describing size the creature's feet, not the number of them. So, since the animal's informal name is "Bigfoot", it seems natural to just put an 's' at the end for the plural spelling.

Bigfeet is what I've heard on documentaries and such. Did you ever see the one with Jeff Corwin when he went to the Himalayas looking for Bigfeet? I liked it for the most part but it kind of pissed me off because he wasted all this time in this one spot and at the end he flew in a helicopter over a completely different spot and said if there were any bigfeet they would live there but he was just too lazy to look in there (I'm paraphrasing that.)

Actually no. They only have one big foot, the other one is normal sized.
