leg band id - need help

Hi,

I would like to get some information on a leg band I received from a breeder.
I purchased an African Grey Timneh from a breeder in Colorado and had him shipped to me to Philadelphia.
The breeder told me that the bird does not have a closed leg band because by the time she recieved the bands it was to late.
Well, I asked her to send me the band so I had some type of registration.
Today I received this band. It looks pretty small. My other Timneh wears a larger one.
Here is what is says.

130H (horizontal) 03 (90 degree angle) 90 (90 degree angle) 0 1 0 (horizontal)

It just doesn't look right, since the band would be to tight to wear for a Timneh.
Can someone help? I would like to confront the breeder.
Thanks for your help.
Insa
