The numbers for both of my pasture locations arrived in the mail yesterday. The number is a combination of letters and numbers. However, the use of some letters is making it confusing. My numbers include zeros with a slash through them which I assume is the number zero and zeros without a slash through which I assume is the letter "o" and also a zero with half a slash through it which I assume is the letter "Q. The numbers were hand written and not typed on the notification I received. This is an Alabama number but I understand that Alabama is using the national system thus the numbers come from the national authority.
It may be better not to use letters and numbers that can be confused.
 
How many digits long is it. I am waiting for WY to get theirs out to us.

Haymaker- rancher-- There is hope-Sounds like this last one was spotty-- I talked to a couple of people that were north in the pastures areas--At the north place we got 2/10's of an inch of rain and 2 inches of wet snow - a little south of there on the community pasture they figured they ended up with close to half an inch -- Sounds like they had the snow plows out plowing wet snow off the roads last night in the Scobey-Plentywood areas.......

Alabama- Glad you posted that today- I'd almost forgot to get tags this year- I had been waiting to see if they came out with some type of National or state tag- only have about 20 of the old Y-tex left--and cows could start in the next week or so-- so I went to town today and got some Z-tags as the neighbors have been having better luck with them and I don't have to worry about losing the buttons I had stuck in every pocket...

Except I use them more for my own info to mother calves when moving cows to different pastures and at weaning to decide cow performance...And anymore I use the cow size in everything- hell of a lot easier to read the numbers....

I just heard that the Lead On bull has really went up in price- semen will be $30 straw- apparently he's a weak semen producer and semen is limited........
