IMPORTANT NEWS FOR SHEEP KEEPERS IN ENGLAND
2015 - CHANGES TO ID & RECORDING
Identification of lambs:-
• Slaughter lambs tagged from 1st January 2015
must be identified with an EID tag, this can be:-
• A single yellow EID slaughter tag, or
• Full EID - one yellow EID tag and a matching non EID tag
**This change does not apply to lambs already tagged in 2014**
Recording movements of older sheep - tagged before 2010
• From 1st January 2015 their individual animal numbers
must be entered on movement documents
This does not apply if they are moving:-
- to slaughter
- within your business to a holding where you are their keeper
- to a CPRC - if they are already electronically tagged
• These animals can still be batch recorded in your holding register
• We recommend you re-tag these animals with EID tags
if you do not intend to move them direct to slaughter
~~~~~~~~~~~~
For those selling cull ewes under the hammer
- keep all your options open by EID tagging your sheep,
i.e. one yellow EID tag and one matching non EID tag.
Ewes not EID tagged can only be sold for slaughter
Trading Standards have also noticed that a few people are tagging their
sheep in the pens on market day, all sheep should be tagged on the
holding before travelling to market
All other livestock marketing operations on a Wednesday continue as normal.
