Chicken Hill Baby Poultry Leg Bands 1/4-inch Medium Chick – Pack 100

Identify at hatch with ease

At hatch, many chicks look similar, but Chicken Hill’s Baby Poultry Leg Bands help you distinguish breeds and varieties right from day one. The 1/4-inch medium bands are designed to fit most standard day-old poultry and come in a bold multicolor mix—magenta, purple, green, and orange—so you can keep records at a glance.

What makes them easy to use

The soft, stretchable design slips over the feet without pulling or twisting tiny legs, reducing handling stress for new hatchlings. The bands are built from non-toxic medical-grade plastic elastic, offering durability under regular use.

• Stretchy bands ease installation on hatchlings, with less risk of leg strain.
• Color-coding helps you identify breeds or individuals at a distance.
• Available in packs of 100, 200, or 500 with extras included.

Growth-ready labeling

As chicks grow, simply remove the old band and upgrade to the next size every 2–4 weeks. Once the growth cycle completes, you can transition to a permanent band if desired.

• Sizes available: XS 1/8-inch, Small 3/16-inch, Medium 1/4-inch, Large 5/16-inch, XLarge 3/8-inch.
• Medium fits most standard day-old poultry; if a band slips, use the smaller size until they grow.

Real-world use

Perfect for hobbyists, small flocks, or educational settings where quick identification matters. Expect straightforward maintenance and clear color cues that reduce confusion during brooding and early growth stages.
