[QUOTE="JD-Kid, post: 7525742, member: 479"] use a XR 5000 here found it good and good back up can do alot of things on the head unit have a mate that works with a big deer unit they are all Gallagher units and rate them highly but I have not used them we dont follow ewes as we can't being outdoor lambing and not tagged till later DNA testing a high cost BUT would be worth it I feel if lambs tagged at birth and the sires could be followed etc would be intresting following breeds or bloodlines information is key to make it work fully weights at key times growths etc meat or grading yields for sires etc we have the missing link of not being able to fully link ewes to lambs to sires with being dry at the moment the use of EID and recording helped show up poorer ewes in weights or how they handle the dry shy feeders poor grazers having history of scanning also let us cull out poorer scanning ewes which should help retain better ewes to lower the impact of they dry in coming years [/QUOTE]
