Suggestions on how to removed closed leg bands.
Be careful, bird legs can easily be broken. It can help to have someone else hold the bird, while another concentrates on safely removing the band with two free hands.
Create room for the cutter to grip the band by holding the band away from the leg.
Use a smooth action without twisting the band against the leg. Cut one side of the band, then turn the band to make a second cut on the opposite side of the band.
