Looking into Spiral leg bands! Breed help for size context?

[Draconic]

So I'm looking to buy some new, better legbands for my flock that won't be so bulky (I bought a bag of the large plastic ones that lock, they fall off easily and just don't seem comfortable) and I seen Spiral leg bands were a common recommendation!

My problem is my chickens are all different breeds, so I was looking for potential help in what sizes I should buy ^^'

I have three chocolate gold-laced orpingtons, a golden Comet, three golden Comet/Chocolate gold-laced orpington mixes, a sapphire gem, a potential Sapphire/Chocolate Gold-laced Orpington mix three Alohas (one rooster, two hens) three Easter eggers, two Gold-laced Wyandottes and an Appenzeller Spitzhauben... I think that's all of them

I'm probably not going to worry about the rooster, but the hens will all need one, so I'm looking for size guesstimates! I know the Spitzhauben is going to need something smaller than the rest, but I don't know about the sapphire gem or the golden comet, the Alohas are a guess as well, because my hens are a lot smaller than their brother is

I know the Orpington needs a size 11, her chicks are going to need a size 11 when they grow up as well, but as for the mix breeds... I don't know what to expect. Does anyone have experience with banding these breeds?

Purpose of leg bands is to tell birds apart. You've got a mixed flock. Certain ones (like the spitzhauben) should be easy. Alternatively, get an assorted size package and see which sizes you actually need.

I view them sorta like collars lol, everyone gets one, even if I can tell them apart. Kinda like a "We belong to someone" in case they ever get out, y'know? I'll do that though

You could use zip ties to see what size you need, then.
