[QUOTE="sackshowcattle, post: 285523, member: 4065"] I have tried everything from all flex to the ritchie engraveable to now the z tag. but what I do is partially engrave the z tag so even if the ink fades you still see the number that was on it. The z tags being one piece the only time I see one lost is if the ear rips out. I have a 10 year old cow with a z tag still in place. My next step will probably be freeze brand the number of the cows I know I will retain on the hip. That way I have a permenant white tag on the hip and the hide is not damaged. The other route I have thought about going is putting a tattoo in the ear but those are hard to read some times and it would mean bringing them back in every time they lose a tag. [/QUOTE]
