- I AM UPDATING MY CATTLE TAGS TO THESE RITCHEY TAGS! GREATEST TAGS ON THE MARKET!
Hey everyone I am a 4th generation farmer, grew up in south central Nebraska living the farm kids dream. As I got older I was able to turn that dream of one day being a farmer into reality! Soon enough into farming I realized that I needed a second source of income to keep on top of todays lifestyle and invested into livestock! After a few years of watching youtube farms i decided to record our farm and how we operate. If you enjoy these videos please subscribe and follow along this journey!

Keepin a record o ur cattle performance really important these days Jesse so great idea invest in decent tags👍👍
Good looking tags!
Great video thanks for the update
Good thought
I value your time at least equal to my plumbers. He get 80 bucks an hour, $1.33/minute. 5 minutes per tag, grinding + distractions +breaks = $6.65 per tag. Makes that .30 cents for factory done look pretty good. Think of all the quality time you could be devoting to your lovely wife or Roscoe. Yup that's me being a deuce!😅😅😅
That's slick
I use yellow Ritchie tags in Elgin Nebraska
This side of the pond you don't make cattle tags, they are supplied by the department of agriculture.
They are a yellow plastic tag with black lettering....
Nice video as always.. 👍👍
Those ink pens really fade out quick. Even the tags you buy that are factory stamped will fade out in a couple years. I switched to Ritchie years ago and as long as they don't fall out you can read them.
I would imagine it’s called a round carbide burr.
Make digital "888" template, mark them, then grind
Are z tags engraveable
Does the y Tex gun work with those tags
Yes it does. You can use y tex or all flex buttons
How often do cows get out? City girl here
It's usually not very often. Maybe once or twice a year we have deer run through the electric fence and break it
@@JMfarmandcattle Fence must be in good sturdy shape if cows doesn't get out often.
Do the numbers themselves have a meaning like the 3 the 2 and the 9 in 329? I’m guessing since you don’t have 300 cows
Yes they do. So the first number is the year they were born. So a 3 means the cow was born in 2013. Helps mark the tag in the field. The next numbers are just the order they were born. All these cows I bought from previous people and I decided to keep the last two numbers the same as they always been just because I recognize them already. So basically the first number is the main number
If you have tons to do I have a cnc machine that can do one in about 2 min, if you ever need help or need more in the future let me know.
I appreciate it! I'm almost done now but I will keep that in mind for the future!
Hey Jason.. I hope you see this.. I am trying to engrave the Ritchey tags on my CNC Shark and could sure use some guidance..
@@jeffholliday8501 I dont know much about cnc shark but what do you need help with.
@@kaylajason8917 Thanks a bunch for responding! What bit and font combination have you found to work best. The other issue is just my inexperience with the v-carve software. I have been working on it for the last week or so and I think I have it figured out. I have been using a 1/4 inch round nose bit but it is a little wide. I have an 1/8 inch ordered gonna give that a try.
@@jeffholliday8501 ok so with plastic i use a 1/8 inch 2 flute down cut bit. Thing with plastic is you can't go slow or you melt it but also can't go to fast or you snap your bit.I have an old shapeoko 2 cnc that I modified over the years. So for a base speeds for 1/8" bit I would start at 3500 rpm for your spindle and got 150 inches per minute on feed with .03125 depth per cut. As for font and tags I go blocky bold text as its easier to cut and see. If their is a way to private message I can give you pictures on how to batch out using a jig on you base plate and double side tape to hold in place.hope this helps.
