blackdog Posted January 6, 2010 Report Posted January 6, 2010 The RPRA are bang out of order changing to this style ring whilst 80+% of their membership still time in on a conventional clock. I wonder why they've changed ???????? dont like the look of them tony, i think members should have had the choice which ones they wanted mate
Babybird Posted January 6, 2010 Report Posted January 6, 2010 Forgive me for being a woman but I am just about to order RPRA rings and I dont want them if they gonna have bits for the ETS on them as I will never be racing my birds and feel they wont look as discreet as the normal rings for my release birds. Does anyone know what they look like
Guest joshdonlan Posted January 6, 2010 Report Posted January 6, 2010 Babybird, why are you ringing your birds with racing rings? Would you not be better doing what micko has done and have your own telephone rings designed?

Does anyone know what they look like Sorry to say Babybird if you want RPRA rings you will have to have them as that is the design of them now,you could however have your own made with just a phone number and address on.

Would you not be better doing what micko has done and have your own telephone rings designed? I have phone number rings on them as well, makes them easier to find if they do get lost and as mine are all white and near enough all look the same I use the life rings for identification as well. Plus the fact I am planning on giving a few away this year to my young buddies on here. Thanks Andy, will sort out some SHU ones or you may even send me some welsh ones

pigeonpete Posted January 7, 2010 Report Posted January 7, 2010 Well got my National r.p.r.a rings yesterday....... NOT impresssed 1 bit. Think they are going to be so prone to snagging, fishing line, mesh bottoms, causing all sorts of injuries, Thats my first impressions anyway, And think they could snap easish, So therefore rendering the ring illegal??
