[Jacob-list] Scrapie vs moving out-of-state/ tag question

[Neal and Louise Grose]

North Carolina has a provision on other programs to list "re-tag" on the form when a new tag is put in, with the old tag number listed as being replaced by the new one. This would cover replacing lost tags as well as retagging sheep from a different flock and state. It should be the same in the scrapie program. If not, what are they going to do?

  You don't have to retag your sheep with your new ID, do you?  I wouldn't think you'd have to. I just got another application and guess I'll enroll later this fall.  I'm assuming, but someone correct me, please, if I'm wrong, that I do not tag, with my tags,  sheep in my flock that already have tags from enrolled flocks??  I have some sheep from out of state with the mandatory tags from flocks that are not enrolled in the voluntary program.  On those, I guess I'm supposed to leave those tags and add my tags? Hopefully, I'm allowed to cut out the lamb tags from the breeder, so that the sheep will have two tags at the most.
