Boumatic try all these different things that they are sh!t at, robots collars they just want to stick to parlours!
Same here, put Sensehub collars on all the bulling heifers this year. Easy to take off or put on and easily transferred to new stock. We felt there was too high a risk of the ear tags being caught on wire or sheepwire and being pulled out.But I’m old school I like collars

The new ear tags have a longer battery life than the old tags, 5 v 3 years, and are cheaper as well so it's closer to 50:50 now than it was before, I think.
Edit: Cheaper than collars, same price as the old tags.
No, we would be milking off grass predominately and I don't know if they can be linked to FTY but I'd expect they can.Do you do feed to yield with yours
