Houstons - Sixth Generation Hill Farmers

Sixth Generation Hill Farmer Values Benefits of Countryside Services Sheep EID Tags Rachel Houston farms sheep and suckler cows, in partnership with her father Francie, on the family farm near Rostrevor in Co. Down. The farm has been managed by the family for over three centuries and currently comprises 70 acres of farmland. The 30 suckler cows and 300 breeding ewes are also grazed on common hill ground on the nearby Knockshee Mountain, locally known as Killowen Mountains. Having tried a range of tag types over the years, Rachel and her father now only use cattle and sheep tags supplied by Countryside Services. Rachel comments ‘We use EID Button tags on all our ewes and replacements as we have found that they have excellent retention and reading. We have used several different tags on the market and had no end of problems with lost tags. This costs us more money and time. Previously we also had problems with ewes’ ears becoming infected with some of the tags we used. We have not had this problem since we changed to sheep tags supplied by Countryside Services.' ‘For store lambs we use Countryside Services electronic and visual foldover tags as they have a sharp and strong pin on the end and are quick and easy to attach to the lamb’s ear. With the electronic foldover tag there is also a 360 degree readability giving us an accurate read from all angles. These foldover tags are put in lambs we are selling, and we have been very pleased with them.’ https://bit.ly/2O22tNm
