[QUOTE="Cow1, post: 5086014, member: 3853"] This year I've been spray marking ewes and lambs with the last 3 digits of their EID tag number. I have the odd duplicate number but the chances of them lambing outside in the same place at the same time are slim. It's worked very well and saves having to cross reference tags with a number. Pre lambing I made a spreadsheet with all the ewes listed in numerical tag order and filled in the details as they lambed. To spray numbers on the ewe I've a couple of sets of 4 alligator hurdles in the field that can be dragged behind the Gator. Last year I pre numbered ewes with ascending numbers cross referenced to the ewe before lambing when vaccinating but found this fiddly to do and some numbers had faded by lambing time. I have found changing it this year has worked very well. [/QUOTE]
