X2 on the zip ties, they are fast and easy. There area ton off different ways to identify individual birds. Wing band of various kinds, they are usually fairly permanent. Leg bands the metal ones tend to be longer lasting, there are a colored plastic rings and bandettes with numbers on them. Then there is toe punching. http://www.nationalband.com/nbtpoult.htm Has a bunch of different things available.
