[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 1461465, member: 6543"] radio frequency identification.. a device for permanent identification which is commonly put into an ear tag which is a piece of temporary identification.. Ideally an rfid in breeding stock should be an implant. there was just an article in a recent issue of progressive cattleman I think about advances in RFID...I will see if I can scout it up and post a link. regarding breeding information.... things I record.....I do it on paper and transfer it to excel date cow number and any other pertinent cow information bull name bull registration bull stud number bull collection code....useful if the stud mixed up the semen and you bred a hereford and got a holstein....it has happened. service comments eg cow still standing at service....or no heat seen breed on time.... service score ......excellent...very good...fair....poor... excell gives me when to expect heat 20 days later when to expect the calf....my angus use 282 days so other breeds might use other gestation lengths. days since service gives the vet a target for pregnancy work...very helpful to the vet.
