Anybody who keeps sheep and goats, just wondering how you organise tag numbers?
Are they intermingled, do you have completly different flock/ herd number, or designated batches to each species?

Mine are mixed, but have now kept back a batch and got pastern tags to last me for a few years. Goat boys and sheep just get whichever tag is next.

Our holding has Anglo Nubian and British Toggenburg goats, Gotland sheep, Franconian Geese, Blue Swedish ducks, a whole load of mongrel hens and two semi-feral children.
