[QUOTE="memanpa, post: 201805, member: 1334"] oldtimer correct me if i am wrong a BRAND is used to prove ownership? not indentifcation! are your eartags so unique that no one else could ever have them? let me give you a possible scenero that FAULTS your claim that your cattle are traceable back to you, keep in mind that this is only a possible situation! 1: you sell a cow calf pair (branded tagged and inspected to an out of state buyer) 2: out of state buyer crosses 3 state lines (LEAGALLY) and arrives at his/her destination never rebranded 3: said cow/calf pair escapes and wonders into a different county and is found by someone who keeps them for a while and that person sells them to private treaty no inspection 4: the new owner smiles when they notice the brand on the animal is the same as thiers :D they remove the eartag replace it with ther own at this point traceability is lost is it not? not saying this happened just saying it could happen so your traceability with brand and eartag is FAULTED BRANDS are only proof of ownership in a specific local ONLY, not from state to state!!
