[QUOTE="Keren, post: 481838, member: 3195"] All our calves are tagged at birth. We usually cut the tags out of them when we do the big clip before the show. It is convenient to do it then. Its common practice to take the tags out of breeding stock - I guess it looks a bit neater in the show ring. Although, it does make it difficult to tell between the show females when they are back out in the paddock (doesnt help that murray greys are the same colour - I miss my shorties, they were easy to tell apart, cos of all the patches etc). With hoof n hook steers here, the shows assign a number and a tag. One of the major shows sends the tags out to you, and you have to tag them before you come to the show. The rest of them tag the steers as they come in for weighing - if you have another tag in them at the time they will cut it out and replace it. With the goats, it it easy - they all keep their original tags in. [/QUOTE]
