Identification ear tags have always been a problem. If you use blank tags and write with an ear tag pen, they fade and become unreadable. I you use commercially printed, (ink, not 3d) tags, you need to order a lot of tags, they are expensive and if you lose one you cannot replace it with the same number.
12 months ago I tried my first 3d printed ear tags and so far have had 100% success.
They are printed from TPU and are extremely durable, easy to read and can be printed as required. They work out a lot cheaper too.
You can change colours for year, sex, paddock identification.
They fit the standard ear tag applicator gun.

The male part needs to be purchased separately as you would normally do for commercial ear tags.

To customize your own tags, copy this workspace in Onshape and edit the text and size as required.
