Pigs and Management Tags

At the moment there is no legislation in place in the UK for compulsory ear tagging of pigs.  Pig Slappers and tattoos are commonly used (see Marking and Mating) and ear tags are used for more visual management purposes.
 
Ritchey have a good selection of quality reliable pig and management tags available.
