[QUOTE="Chapelton, post: 4842942, member: 1347"] We’re going to have a go a setting up an EID panel between two fields for a coupe of days after marking and tagging and letting everything wander past it - the theory being the lambs follow their mothers. I know this is working pretty well in Australia but wondered if anyone had tried it here? I can’t believe it’s as simple as I’m making it out to be. We obviously won’t get any data other than (hopefully!) establishing the genetic link (and realistically it’s not going to be completely accurate) but that’s all we’re really after at this stage. Setting it up isn’t that much effort so I can’t see a reason not to try it. If it’s a disaster we just won’t use this data and know not to bother next time. [/QUOTE]
