I want to ring the baby's with proper leg rings what age do I do it?

And what size do they have to be?

5-9 days depending on size of the chick. I use 2 toe forward 2 toe back method, some use the 3 forward 1 back its really up to you. Once the ring is on make sure it does not fall off.

do you know where i can get some I don't have any clubs near me

could you send me a link, if you can find any near England

I ring at 8 days +/- 1 day. I use three toes forward 1 back method.

You can contact the Budgerigar Society for information on the rings.

The Budgerigar Socierty Web Site

I ring as soon as I can (usually from around 6 days). Depends on the chick and how big their foot is. Some of my top lines I've needed to ring a lot earlier than my clearwings who have thin scungee feet. Just make sure that the ring will not slip back off - if it does with reasonable ease wait and try the next day.

I look at ringing from 6 days onwards depending on size of chick, using the three toes forward method.

I RING ABOUT THE SAME AS DAZ, EIGHT DAYS ON. I FIND THE RINGS DON'T SLIP OFF AFTER THAT AGE.

BUT IT REALLY IS ALNOUT THE FOOT SIZE
