Ear Tags

Please be aware of your responsibilities with regard to the tagging of sheep of all ages, and in all sections of the market.

Producers are reminded that all cattle require two ear tags with at least one large distance readable tag. Please inspect stock in good time to order replacement tags as, regrettably, any stock that are incorrectly tagged can not be offered for sale. Local authority inspectors will be taking note as stock comes to market.
