Toe punching

I use 4" on ducklings, then 8" once they are bigger:

I just purchased some numbered leg bands from Amazon. Appreciate you input. Has anyone had problems with the leg bands. I ordered 5/8 - 3/4 bands.

Only issue is if people leave them on too long while the ducks growing and it gets too tight

Yes, I agree, one must stay on top of any type of leg band!

I will keep on top of it. Thanks

Figure as long as you do, you should be okay. I admit I was leery of the "hole punch" idea because pain and also how many people on this site have ducks with foot/leg problems. Figure punching a hole in their feet, even in a "safe" area, is just begging for problems later.
