Title: Lost tags

Lost tags on a few sheep need to replace, one or two have ripped the old ones out somehow leaving large tares where do I put the tag in that ear

Between two other ribs.  (And not until you have to, or you will run out of ear!)  (I did not say that.  :innocent:)

Ive not lost any of the qwick tags at all, they all have held well, this year I will put one in the top of the ear on one side and on the lower part of the ear on the other side, just as I am sure helps a double loss of tag
