[QUOTE="iowafarmer, post: 527830, member: 7792"] Heard a few stories of people in iowa knowing people and having them buy calves at salebarns in minnesota for them so that they don't get tagged and then they take them across the border by private treaty with out the ear taggs. I don't think its quite legal but who is going to follow up on it anyway since they are swamped as it is trying to follow up on them. ITs amazing becasue at the local salebarns they have to be tagged when they bring them across the border and then you aren't able to sell them and you have to feed them out after you buy them. people will buythem and cut the tags out and then have them for a few months then sell them again. I asked the local vet about it a while back when i saw the vet in the salebarn. He said that they didn't have enough man power to follow up on every single calf that is brought across the border and sold in the sale barn. Every one thinksit is the bumbest thing ever ybecasue there where only a few cases in norhtern minnesota and they quarantined the whole state. There were some reallynice feeders coming out of southern minnesota into iowa slaebarns that were pretty good buys. One of them things that is shiit but nothing will happen to fix it. [/QUOTE]
