Ear tagging 'mumma' guilt

[blackie's maiden]

So funny, but I can relate. When we had a large herd of about 40, we would get the occasional goat that would eventually get an infection around those.tags, eventually lose the tag and.then have an ugly hole in the ear. Here, we do have an option of ordering id chips from USDA, at a hefty price of $38 a.piece. For our younger packgoats not yet tagged, we may opt for that and.then also put some kind of dog tag with phone number on their collar. Also before trips, we will also use a permanent magic marker to write our cell phone number in big.letters on the collars themselves.

Do you have an option of.microchips to satisfy your government? You do have to plan ahead here as our government knows no deadlines other than their own!
