Hello fellow members,

I'd like advice on where to buy leg bands and breeder record books. I cannot find them in Canberra. Are they available through a finch society or on line with safety?
Grateful any suggestions.
Thanks.

I record my birds and their breeding in an exercise book ruled and labeled by me to suit me. Simple effective and inexpensive.

Pretty sure bird keeping books maybe a thing of the past haven’t seen one for years, most would buy an exercise book and make it to their liking or there are new apps for computer that are now made for this, what pigeon members now use.

Hi,

I use https://www.birdbands.com/ for leg rings and they're great. Or try seeing if there's a local bird club who know any local sellers. I'm not too sure if you can buy bird breeder record books anymore, I just use Microsoft Excel to record my birds.

Thanks,
Aidan
