original owner's brand must be placed as high as possible regardless of location to allow ample room for future changes of ownership/application of new brands which also are located
We don't brand in Arkansas and there is no such thing as a "Brand Inspector" hereBranded or not, the Inspector should have been fired for failing to ensure proof of ownership papers were in order.

Electronic identification button ear tags are used in many places. But the tag is easily removed with a tag knife or even a pocket knife.Can you have locator or tracking implants put in the ear of cattle ? I thought at one not many years ago that was going to be a government enforced issue ?
If it wasn't for being able to remove it so easy. That would be good. I would use both a hot brand and the tracking divice IF, it could be inserted under the skin like they do on dogs and cats. So the theif wouldn't no it was there. Probably wouldn't transmit a signal if it is under the hide though ?Electronic identification button ear tags are used in many places. But the tag is easily removed with a tag knife or even a pocket knife.
Its getting like that more and more. For years I hunted at night and fished at night by myself and never thought about a gun. Now I won't get out of the truck without one.Crime has really gotten bad here in NorthWest Arkansas. All shapes and forms of it.
I use to eat, sleep and breath the outdoors of all kinds. From water sking, duck hunting, deer hunting, trapping. Trail riding both equine and 4 wheelers. You name it and i was doing it.
About 3 years ago had two guys that i am pretty sure had intentions of robbing myself and friend who was in his 70's when we returned to the boat ramp right at dark after having putting some snag lines out in the Arkansas river.
It started with them blocking my truck and trailer in while i was loading the boat. And ended once i produced my 44 mag revolver and explained to the two young thugs that it would be in eveyones best interests to go our seperate ways.
I had a police report made of the incident. I have hunted fished, camped all over this part of the country without any worries at all.
I wouldn't recommend anyone stay the night at any rual forest service camp site that didn't have park attendant's . And then i would have a gun.
The info is on that page and is also on the cow talk facebook group, which is where I saw it.It is on this page

I have little experience with freeze branding. Dave explained things pretty well. It takes several months for a brand to heal up completely.callmefence & Dave, I have very little experience with hot branding. (Less than 100Hd) How long does it take for an altered brand to look all original?
I freeze brand a lot, and know it takes 6wks to 6mos for it to look like what it's supposed to.
I speak to a college class on the benefits of freeze branding. I always tell them that FB are harder to alter than a hot brand. Am I giving false info?
