It is a farm that regularly tests for scrapie. All sheep these days are required to have a tag identifying them in case the sheep develops the disease.You can find out about Scrapie by going to: www.animalagriculture.org/scrapie. It will tell you all you need to know and tell you where to get your tags and how to become a scrapie program farm. You don't have to ! You just need the tags. Scrapie is rather rare in Jacob Sheep. At least, no cases have been reported.
