Why can't you just link there original tag and cut out your eid tag.

I wouldn't be buying anymore from fullwood. I expect you'll find reusable ones from allflex cheaper.

On Delaval we scan the tag with a hand held reader then type the tag into the parlour software against the cow record.

As long as its a HDX EID tag it does not matter the make of tag for us.

I have a cow that swollod a tag how do I disable it
It’s a dairy master parlour and is reading in cow’s stomach when she comes in ?
You can't ...........
The reader doesn't know where the tag is. Why not remove ear tag and rely on swallowed tag ??
In reply to other threads -you cannot run 2 tags on one animal.
Systems will read either full duplex (FDX) or half duplex (HDX) Tags. They usually read either not both.
