Hi there, colbyjack. I'm also a pet owner and only needed a few bands. I also didn't need to "register" my birds and, since I won't be racing - - - don't, technically, have to bands at all. HOWEVER, although I don't plan to let my birds out, there is always the chance that one will get out. I ordered 1 package (25) snap bands from Foys and personalized labels to go with them. We put our phone number on the band but you can list anything you want. I figure the bands as some added insurance .... 1st, the bird would have to be picked up by a human, and 2) that human may not do anything, but they can only try to return the bird if it's wearing a band. What they really need is a phone number - so that's what we listed.
btw, the bands ordered from Foys fit both my Homers & Rollers (Foys website has a sizing chart).
