What you get; QTY 50 Total Bands; Use the options to choose your band colors. (These are also the replacement bands for Chicken Charm Leg Bands)The Bands:
Use multiple colors to Identify one bird from another in a pen or use one color of bands for different pens of birds. Poultry legs are not round as most bands on the market imply, crazy thought huh... Zip Bands, Tie Wraps contour to poultry legs much better that a stiff round band. Poultry fanciers have been using Zip ties for as long as they have been around for an inexpensive way to identify their birds. They can be bought at stores. Most stores carry only black or natural which we have not included in this listing.
Why use Them: Easy to put on, they don't fall off, one size fits large fowl and bantam chickens, ducks, geese, turkey, peacock, and some gamebirds. No more buying 4 or 5 different sizes of bands to fit your birds. Fits Size 6, size 7, size 9, size 11, size 12, size 14 ; Bantams, Chickens, Ducks, Turkey, Geese, Swans, Peacock.
Approx 6" long and fit; Chickens, Ducks, Geese, Turkeys, Game birds, One size can accommodate all of your flock. No more buying a band for every size bird!
Bands will not fall off. No more picking up bands off the ground and trying to locate which bird it came off of.
Aesthetically pleasing.
Used as a stand alone identification system. Double banding can add more options.
Band Shape contours to the leg better than round bands.
Easy to put on. Put the end through the head and start the zip, slide it around the leg, zip until the band/tie is in place. Make sure the band is loose enough it turns easily and slides up and down a bit then, snip off the excess, you are done!
They can be used on growing birds however, not recommended unless you really watch their growth closely.
Any band
that gets to tight can cut into the leg. Birds do the majority of their growth between hatch and 16 weeks. Birds under 16 weeks, make sure to leave plenty of growing room. Before the band starts to get tight, replace it with a new one.
