[QUOTE="IluvABbeef, post: 297314, member: 3739"] Well, it's good for the new calves that we get. When they're milling around, and I ain't familiar with them (especially if there's a number of calves that are the same color), the one I spot that's showing symptoms that he ain't feelin well, he's gonna get marked. I haven't spotted any brands on the calves we get (we had one, but that was over a year ago), so they're just tagged, only id to lean on besides hide markings. And you know, weaned calves new to you and new to the farm aren't gonna stand around and stare at you like they do when their older, they're gonna take on look at you and high-tail it for the farthest corner of the corral, bawling for their mamma, giving you no chance to have a proper look at their eartag number. But when they're bigger and more comfy around you, then that's where we can see that the paint ball gun isn't needed as much. Yeah, and I don't aim to use it on any twolegged animal! ;-) That wouldn't be too great. :lol: I'm still curious though, how many of you [i]still[/i] think it's a dumb idea? [/QUOTE]
