Hi!
So I've been searching far and wide for affordable and safe leg bands for my ducks, mainly my one mallard who could be mistaken for injured wildlife if she for some reason walked off after hopping the fence.
When I got my first duck, she had like 4 zip ties on her foot and I cut them off since they seemed to make her uncomfortable and she'd often pick on them. Whether that was because they were maybe too tight or too many, I'm not sure. But I did see some people using zip ties and wanted to get you guys' opinion on them.
Would it make sense to use them instead of regular bands on adult ducks?
Do you know of other options for marking ducks that I may not be aware of?
Thank you in advance! ❤
