Yes both ears. We tag calves sequentially so the first calve this year will be 701 that would also be what we tatoo in his ears.

Freeze branding the assigned number on one side of the animal is now recognized as permanent identification eliminating the need for tatooing.

Rule 105: Permanent Identification Marks
a. Application and method of permanent identification. Each breeder shall be responsible for ensuring that the animals they register bear a form of permanent identification prior to application for registration.
b. Composition of permanent identification marks. Each breeder shall devise a plan or system of permanent identification, utilizing a series of numbers, a series of letters or a combination of both, provided however that permanent identification marks shall be limited to a maximum of five (5) characters per animal. In connection with the arrangement of those five characters, breeders may use only Arabic numbers and capital letters. The use of any other characters, including joined letters, reversed letters, bars, punctuation marks and other types of symbols shall not be allowed under these Rules.
c.Prohibition on use of identical permanent identification marks in a calendar year. No two animals of the same sex, born in the same calendar year and registered under the name of the first owner, shall be given identical permanent identification marks in the same calendar year.
d. Locations of permanent identification marks. In the event that a breeder utilizes tattoos as a permanent identification mark, such mark shall be placed in both ears of each individual animal. In the event a breeder utilizes freeze-brand marks as a
permanent identification mark, such mark shall be placed once on either side of each individual animal. In the event that a breeder utilizes a hot-branded mark as a permanent identification mark, such mark shall be placed once on either side of each individual animal.
e. Illegible permanent identification marks. In the event that a permanent identification mark on an animal becomes illegible or unreadable, the same marking shall be placed in a new and separate location from the original permanent identification mark or in a location authorized by the American Angus Association. In no event, however, shall the breeder attempt to alter, or overprint the original permanent identification mark.
f. Inspection of permanent identification marks. In the event the results of an inspection of permanent identification marks by an authorized representative of the Association reveals that permanent identification marks are absent, illegible or not in conformity with registration, the following action may also be taken by that representative:
1. In instances where a registered animal is inspected with
permanent identification marks absent, the first owner shall be required to document accuracy to the Association.DNA-marker-typing may be required before registration is validated and new permanent identification marks are recognized.
2. In instances where a registered animal is inspected with
two or more sets of conflicting permanent identification, DNA-marker-typing may be required in order to validate registration.
3. In instances where a registered animal is inspected with permanent identification not in agreement with registration, the first owner shall be required to document accuracy to the Association.DNA-markertyping may be required to validate
registration.
Hope this helps.
