💡 Our Recommendation for Birds
Use TapTap Buddy + Microchip (for larger birds) together. Leg bands require the finder to call a registry and wait for a callback. TapTap Buddy gives instant owner contact. For small birds (budgies, finches), attach to the cage or carrier - if they escape with the cage or when traveling, instant ID. For larger parrots, leg band collar, or harness attachment works. Diet restrictions (no chocolate, avocado, etc.) display immediately to keep your bird safe if someone temporarily cares for them. Microchip is best for valuable breeding birds and parrots as permanent backup ID.

Bird Tag FAQs
Where do I attach the tag on a bird?
Attach to a leg band, neck collar, or carrier. The tag is ultra-lightweight and won't interfere with your bird's movement or flight. Many owners keep it on the cage door as well for quick access.
What if my bird flies away?
Anyone who finds your bird can scan and call you. Even if your bird can't say their address or phone number, the finder has all your contact info instantly. This dramatically increases the chance of reunion.
Can I include diet and care instructions?
Yes! Add diet restrictions (no chocolate, avocado, etc.), medications, behavioral notes, vet contact, and species-specific care instructions. Essential if someone needs to care for your bird temporarily.
Does the tag require batteries or charging?
No batteries needed! NFC tags are completely passive. They work by tapping any smartphone - no power source, no charging, no maintenance. Buy once, use forever.
Is it safe for small birds like budgies or finches?
Yes! Our tags are ultra-lightweight and won't harm small birds. For very small birds, attach to the cage or carrier instead of directly to the bird.
Can I update my contact info later?
Yes, anytime! Log into your account and update your info instantly. The tag is linked to your online profile - no need to buy a new tag when info changes.
Does it work if my bird is found far from home?
Yes! Works anywhere in the world with any smartphone. No internet or cell service needed for the tap - your info loads instantly.
Are there monthly fees or subscriptions?
No subscriptions ever! One-time purchase of $30. No hidden fees, no monthly charges. Lifetime protection for your bird.
