Cow Identification
Pays
How many times have you seen a cow in heat but you were not quite
sure who she was?
Mis-identifying,
or not identifying animals clearly is one of the costliest mistakes
a dairy can make. It is the foundation of your breeding program,
your treatment program and the basis for any good records program.
Fortunately, good identification of the herd is not a difficult
management practice to implement and maintain.
Dairy One is
your source for cow identification tags. Single or double tagging
each animal for life, preferably with a tag that coincides with
the last 3 or 4 digits of the USDA tag, is a system that has proven
reliable for many dairies. For example a heifer is born, she is
given an eartag of 21WXY0500 and tagged #500. This is her number
for life. It is a system that is simple and clean.
There are plenty
of reasons to miss catching heats let's eliminate one of
them.
