UPDATE ON TAGGING
​Currently the exemptions for Dairy Goats are still in place.
​John Falkenhagen showed us an electronic leg tag which hopefully will be accepted by NLIS bodies.
The new tag has tags attached that allow it to be  make bigger three times as the animal grows. 

​When the exemption is lifted members will be given education on how to use the tags. You will have a choice of ear tags or leg bands.
