I like the spiral ones, they come off sometimes but if they dont have one in the yard its easy to put a spiral on for a show or to identify look alike bird brains trying to be broody...

Well it turns out that my Due date has been bumped up by 3+ weeks. I have 4 weeks until Emily is full term. Then its just a matter of time.

 

So with that being said. My Dr. feels that going to Monroe should be out of the question. So I will not be attending the show this year.

 

Oh poo.

Yeah they have to be banded. Cutler Supply is the cheapest/best place I've found to buy them. You have to have the bands ahead of time so you can send in the band # with your entry form. What are planning on showing?




Two new Muscovy's I have, a black drake and a blue hen. Hmm, doesn't seem like very much time to get them!


You can write whatever band number you want on the entry form, and then change the cage card when you get there.  Just make sure your cage card matches your birds' bands.
