Hey, everyone!
I have a question... I'm bringing home a new Parrotlet today, but the breeder did not band his foot. Is that a problem? If so, what should I do. She's getting out of the breeding business, expecting her second child tomorrow. I'm not going to breed this bird, but I thought I'd ask.
Thanks,
Jeanette

An un-banded bird is fine, lol. There are a lot of birds out there, who are not banded.
It just means that she didn't get around to banding this kid (for whatever the reason). It also means that you need to ask her this bird's Information , so that you can write it down for your records, such as age, hatching date, and if you want to know, the parent's info (which has nothing to do with banding) but just for your own curiosity.
Good luck with your new baby.
