Our herd has grown quite quickly over the last year and we are picking up tags to start keeping better track of our herd. What size ear tag has everyone found worked the best?
I order the premise id tags from APHIS. That way I don't have to re-tag for scrapie when I sell them. If you google sheep and goat ear tags, you will find tags that work very well for goats.
I totally disagree with using ear tags. Id tattoo for identification and then use the large ear tags zip tied to collars. Have a friend who puts id on one side of the tag and the sire and dam on the other.
