What ear tags are needed for NLIS Sheep & Goats?
There are two categories of tags needed for NLIS Sheep & Goats: • The breeder tag is the original tag that is placed in the sheep or farmed goats on their property of birth. • A post-breeder tag can be used for sheep, lambs or farmed goats no longer on their property of birth or for sheep or for lambs or farmed goats consigned to a saleyard which have lost a breeder tag. All post-breeder tags are pink. Post-breeder tags may be used to identify stock you have bought that are already tagged with an NLIS tag to allow easier identification of bought-in sheep or farmed goats, particularly when they may have come from various sources.
