Tattoo identification can provide a more secure and permanent method for marking your livestock. For a temporary solution, markers can be used.
Things to Consider:
Tattoos – For a permanent identification system, tattooing can be a great solution. You can customize your marking as a number, letter, or combination.
Drawbacks – While tattooing is permanent, some of the drawbacks can be that it is difficult to read as hair grows in, or dirt covers the area. Also, quick identification from a distance is not possible.
Quick spray –For a quick ID solution that is not permanent, there are sprays available to help you quickly mark your livestock with them hardly even noticing.
