My GCC's mysterious band number is driving me crazy...

I got my GCC about 5 1/2 years ago and recently I have been curious about how old she actually is, so naturally I have been trying to decode her leg band in hopes that I could find some more info.
The band reads "PBA 10723" and is a closed, silver band with the letters and numbers engraved into the band.
I have been searching the web endlessly in hopes to find the breeder or any other info regarding the band number and I have not had any luck so far. Does anyone know what the numbers could mean or how I can find her exact age? I am almost positive that she was quite young when I got her because her beak was slightly pale at the tip and she was quite a bit smaller than she is now.
Thank you in advance for any help/guidance!!!!

Sometimes you will not find any real information, unfortunately. Though an older thread says that PBA stands for Queen's Pride Aviary, located in Texas.
