Those would be breeder initials. They usually stand for the name of the aviary.

Is it just PB by itself, or are there additional letters? Does it have a state?

Knowing more about the band may help to pinpoint the info on it.

There is a leg band that is PBA, which stands for Queen's Pride Aviary, located in Texas.

Some other leg band include PBT, PBPP, PBPR, PBM, PBE - etc

Another one is PBN - Preferred Bird Network

Or AFA PB AK - Paula Bezette

PBA could also stand for Pyrrhura Breeders Association

PBP - Peek A Boo Parrot Aviarys



If it's none of those... well,here's my list for band info....

There is the Leg Band Numbers Yahoo Group...
LegBandNumbers : Leg Band Numbers

Leg Band Registry (new - last two ones have been shut down)
Leg Band Registry

A few places that produce leg bands may or may not help trace the band if it's one of theirs...

PBA1 stands for Pionus Breeders Association but they use silver colored bands ... it was one of Queen's Pride Aviaries band codes. What kind of bird do you have? What does the entire band info read as? There can be any number of PB's out there ... at this time, none are registered in my leg band registry database.

We're still getting to know each other since I became her Guardian just a few days ago...She didn't even want to come out of her cage today :( the first time she didn't want to since I got her...but as soon as she trusts me enough to take a look at the whole band I will definitely post it here for you. Thank you for your help :)

We're you able to find anything out about this? My B&G Macaw has a band on her leg of PBN 68, I've been told by the previous owner she was 3 different ages and I rescued her, so I dont know much about her past. She is very aggressive at the moment. So definitely trying to teach her we are not bad people and get her to the vet to the for a health check up. Thank you.
