[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1472671, member: 12607"] All here (80 or so cows/heifers) have a numbered ear tag, but every one also has a name (I assert that Thirty-Four and Sixty-One are, indeed, names). Most cow families follow some sort of loose convention/association... names start with a particular letter (Ping, Pong, Patty, Penny, etc.) or a theme (General, Major, Captain, Sarge, etc.) . I know ear tag # and name for most... even if I can no longer read the number on the tag.
