Can they be painted I wonder?

I seriously doubt the paint would stay on very long but you could give it a try and see how long it lasts

I think your right but I will try one with enamel paint and see how it goes

Can't hurt to try and yes I would use enamel paint or plastic paint so it may stick

No they do stay on but remember you cannot show them with a wing tag or leg ring mentioning it just incase you want to show your fowl

This maybe a stupid question but can I use zip ties on the wings only only the 2 last flight feathers just as a temp way to identify them
