    Yes min order of ten I think is right. They have ones for factory/ mart. Yellow small like shape if cattle. One tag in left ear will do.
    You can use the balance for other lambs heading to factory

    We ordered 40 a few months ago over the phone. They need your herd/flock no. and address but that's about it. 40 cost us a huge €8 :-)

    Its a good service , I noticed tagging the lambs aswell that the tips of the lamb tags seem harder and sharper than the crap cow tags
