- Our lock rings are very easy and quick to apply thanks to the unique lock and hinge system. You close the ring by pressing both halves together. The duck cannot open this ring by itself. Opening back can only be done by a simple human action.
These rings are also used for other stronger birds such as chickens, turkeys, waterfowl, pheasants, etc.... - If you have a closed ring want for your duck, we recommend our E-Z O'rings. These are also available in the annual colors.
- For the chicks we advise our elastic growth rings. The high elasticity ensures that the ring will be able to adapt to the paw as it grows. This greatly reduces re-ringing to prevent ingrowth.
