Quote: If you use some end clippers(shown on left below), you can cut right thru the lock, much easier way to remove whether they are too tight or not.
A good, big pair of straight toenail clippers might work for this.
But agrees.... just tight enough not to slip off foot with toes together, can take some practice but pretty easy once you've seen/felt it a few times.
I think I changed ziptie out 3 or 4 times between day old and adult.
