Setup and Application
It is crucial to apply the leg rings correctly to ensure the bird's safety and comfort. These closed bird anklets are typically worn when the bird is young. Please ensure the inner diameter of the anklet is suitable for your bird's ankle before purchasing to prevent injury.
Important Note on Wearing Time:
This bird anklet can be worn 7 days after the birth of the bird. Adult birds cannot wear these rings due to their closed design.

Application Steps:
- Step 1: Hold the Bird Securely. Gently hold the bird to ensure it is calm and to prevent injury during the process.
- Step 2: Apply Lubricant (Optional). A small amount of lubricant can be used to help the ring slide over the bird's foot more easily.
- Step 3: Pass Toes Through. Carefully pass the front three toes of the bird through the foot ring first.
- Step 4: Guide Back Toe. Use a toothpick or similar blunt, thin object to gently pry the back toe out of the ring.
- Step 5: Adjust Ring. Adjust the bird's ankle loop to the ankle to make sure it doesn't slip off and is comfortable.

Maintenance
The aluminum leg rings require minimal maintenance. To ensure longevity and hygiene:
- Cleaning: If rings become soiled, gently wipe them with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material or irritate the bird.
- Inspection: Periodically check the rings for any signs of wear, damage, or sharp edges that could potentially harm the bird.
- Storage: Store unused rings in a dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve their color and material integrity.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with the bird leg rings, consider the following:
- Ring Does Not Fit: Ensure you have selected the correct size for your bird's age and species. These rings are designed for young birds (7 days after birth) and may not fit adult birds. Refer to the size chart in the specifications section.
- Ring Falls Off: This may indicate the ring is too large for the bird, or it was not applied correctly. Re-evaluate the size and re-apply following the application steps carefully.
- Bird Shows Discomfort: If the bird appears distressed or attempts to remove the ring excessively, remove the ring immediately. Re-check the size and application method. Consult a veterinarian if discomfort persists.
