    Hi all,
    Is it possible to order electronic sheep tags from Mullinahone on-line? Am registered with them, but cannot see the option to order.

    Dont think you can order online of any of the tagging companies but i could be wrong.
    Also the cormac eid tag is a far better tag than the mullinahone ones imo and ya will have them the next day if ya order early enough.

    you can order on line from

    agree with eire 23 that cormac eids are better than mullinahne

    however lately having some issues with cormac, namely tags splitting, and a fairly high loss rate

    also after a few years the writing fades (someone said sheep dip causes this)

    I think they changed the design a couple of years ago and don't think the present tags (cormac)
    are as good as before

    just my experience .. maybe my feed barriers could be partly to blame

    Ordered a batch of eid tags from elite two years ago, found them to have a excellent retention rate but they wont write the year on them for some reason which cormac will do.
