[QUOTE="vclavin, post: 951906, member: 13613"] I tag within 12 hours of birth and give calf guard vaccine within a few hours of birth or at tagging and weighing on the scale. I usually wait till 12 hours old to weigh them so I can march mom and her calf to the barn. Cows trust me so there are no issues there except sometimes right after birth.. like the pain has them a little looloo. After that , they are pretty good. (Angus) I tag the right ear, birthdate, calf number (in order of birth), dam's number, and H/B for whichever sex they are ...on front of tag. Back of tag has calf number, birthdate, dam just in case front of tag has managed to fade too much to see info. All registerable calves get white tags and xbreeds get yellow tags.
