Another begginer question for you all...
I have some Coturnix about to hatch in my incubator and I just found out a friend has some coming soon to. I am hoping to be able to identify the two flocks so I can switch out the males of one group to the hens of the other and vice versa. I have never done banding and am wondering if anyone can help me with sizes??? I found a great deal but don't know what size I need. I asked them and was to their bands size for Quial but that is for Bobwhite and day old pheasants. i don't think that will work for Jumbo Corturnix? Any one have a site where I can find this info or does anyone know first hand? Possibly a bird that is the same size so I could ask about that variety from them??? Any help is greatly aprriciated!
