[QUOTE="cowgirl8, post: 1344880, member: 22072"] We've always used the mark on mainly because the first number tells us how old the cow is by the last number of the year she was born. Lose one tag on a 300, cow born 2003 or 2013, i have to buy a whole bag to replace one missing......But not being able to read it has never been a problem, i get what i need done with or without a number at the time. All cows are tattooed so when we get them up, if they've lost a tag i have their number right in their ear. I remark all tags at this time, replace the ones that need it. But, the dalis grass covers even numbered tags out here and numbered tags get pulled off..(commercial show heifers got numbered tags at check in so this is how i know they get covered too and they fall off) I do this with cows who pull their tags out, gotta find something on them to distinguish them from one another...Was much easier when our herds were sims and all colored and spotted up.
