Title: Tagging - do I have this right?
Post by: Steel on May 31, 2018, 09:05:29 pm

It's almost time for my two wethers to go to slaughter. They are about 14/15 months old.

They came from the breeder last December with two tags, a yellow in one ear and a green in the other.

Am I right in thinking this is fine for them to go to slaughter with these tags and I don't need to retag?

Thank you.

One more question.

I set up a movement on ARAMS and opted for the option to put the 2 sheep under my own flock mark but did not register their individual ear tag numbers.

Should I have done that instead?
