[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1320783, member: 498"] Locally every single critter gets a tag. Over at Toppenish they often don't tag big bunches. But I am talking about multiple pot loads from the same ranch. They will use a marker crayon to make for quick identification. Two green slashes on the right hip, one green one the left shoulder, etc. But all of those calves are branded. In fact I am pretty sure that 90% of the calves at those sales are branded. So ownership is permanently attached to the calf. They are sold based on weight on the ring scale. I have seen them fill the ring with 50 600 weights steers, weigh them and run them off, fill it again, and then again, then sell all 150 steers in one shot. The big fall run feeder sales they will sell 3,000 calves in three hours. The few times they accidently get two owners calves in the ring at the same time they will sell one owners calves, sort them off, and then sell the other persons calves. [/QUOTE]
