Chicks have arrived! Here they are in their new brooder exploring and basking in the heat tunnel.

Since they are the same breed and all look the same, should I put leg bands on them for identification and record keeping? At what age should I do that? And can someone post a link to the best kind?

Why band are going to breed or butcher?

No breeding or butchering but shouldn't I have some way to identify them for record keeping and to simply know which is which?
