Snag-Free Ear Tag
"Our new snag-free ear tag fits tight against the back of the cow's ear so it won't snag and rip out," says Don Hicks, inventor."With other ear tags there's about 1 /4 in. between the ear and button that holds the tag on, so when the animal reaches through a fence and pulls her head back, the wire can get caught and rip the tag out, leaving you with an injured, unmarked animal," notes Hicks.
Snag-free tags come in four sizes and a variety of colors. They sell for from 66 to 90 cents depending on size,
