Leg band size.

Post by RATTIE » Fri Aug 13, 2010 7:39 pm

My Zebra Finches have started laying eggs and I want to order some leg bands but the place I order all of my bands from is out of finch bands. Would it be ok to use Canary bands? The finch bands are 3/32" and the canary bands are 7/64" so there is not much of a difference.

It should be fine. All of my birds have size D bands, and the recommendation is size C, I just wait an extra day or 2.
