Leg Bands for Silkies

[1Pammylou]

Hey Everyone. I have some Silkie Chicks from different lines that I am starting not to be able to tell apart. I put a tiny Zip Tie on one chick and the others started pecking at the Chicks' leg. I also bought some Plastic Leg bands but haven't tried them yet. I would love to hear anyone's advice on leg bands.

Cheap, numbered, and they can all have one. The pecking should stop after a few days or when they all have them.
