BIRD SAFE dye on a few feathers is a technique I have seen used. Be aware that the dye wont last and will need to be regularly redone.Hi I missed the boat getting leg bands on my king parrot chicks so how else can you mark the chicks to tell them apart without having legbands.
Chicks are now 5 weeks and 3 offHow old are the chicks? How many?
Have heard bad things about open bands like them getting caught on netting etc so am shy of them.Tried nail polish but did not last long at allBIRD SAFE dye on a few feathers is a technique I have seen used. Be aware that the dye wont last and will need to be regularly redone.
The other option would be using open bands
