Closed bird leg banding instructions for applying closed bird leg bands / bird leg rings. |
||||
1. Use closed bird bands on birds that are still in the nest around 9 days old, while their foot is still small enough to fit through the bird band. |
2. Hold the bird's leg. Apply a small amount of petroleum jelly to the bird's foot. |
3. Hold the front toes together and slide them through the bird band. If they don't slip through, the bird might be too old to use a closed bird band. |
4. Continue sliding the bird band over the back toe. If it gets caught you can use a toothpick or similar tool to help pick it through. |
5. Check that the bird band does not fall off. Check that the toes are not injured. |
How do you
put on open metal bird leg bands / bird leg rings? |

2. Place the opened bird ring over the birds leg, between the birds knee and ankle. |
3. Close the pliers until the ends of the bird ring meet together. |
4. To finish closing the bird ring and to make a round shape, turn the bird ring 90 degrees so that the opening faces the side of the pliers. |
5. Close the pliers until the shape of the bird ring is round. Do not squash the bird ring too far onto the birds leg. |
