New to tagging!
« on: June 25, 2015, 10:52:54 pm »
Hello!

I'm new to tagging and just wanted to double check something.

I've got 4 lambs intended for slaughter so I have ordered yellow single EID tags but I am keeping a castrated ram. Do I double tag him with the same tags as breeding tags? So 1 yellow and 1 blue?

Thanks!

Yes, anything that is expected to be alive beyond 12 months old needs two tags
