The simple thing to do is to just purchase a metal bird band to go around their leg. It wont hurt or bother them and it will be a way for you to tell them from one another as well as to let anyone who finds them who they belong to.

i agree with you but I was one of those who's dogs run away while she had no collar on - i don't like to leave the collar on her all of the time as it damages the fur. It was no problem and when i was taking her out i would have a collar on her but just around the house and in the garden i wouldn't worry - she is normally too well behaved to run away until one day when she must have caught sigh of some thing (she gets very excited by foxes and squirrels) and jumped the 6 foot fence and was no where to be seen even thought we spend about 2 hours looking for her. thankfully she did have a chip and someone kindly took her to a vet so we got her back but I don't like to think about what could have happened. As soon as I got her back i got her a nice light collar for around the house with a disk with her name and phone number and that now never gets taken off just in case!!

There are commercially made plastic colored bands. A feed store that sells chickens might have them. Or eBay.

You can get a band from your vet or most petstores that sell bird food.
