[QUOTE="Silver, post: 1482499, member: 12520"] We use the Ritchie engrave-able tags to avoid fading, but I don't believe you can hang something in a cows ear that at least some of them won't lose at some point. We give our replacements a metal clip tag (like a Bangs tag I guess, although we don't have those here). That way at least if I need to replace a tag I can give her the same number she had. I used to put the metal tags in at birth but found some get infected if not placed perfectly to allow for ear growth. [/QUOTE]
