HDX and FDX are two different types of RFID tags. Both types are available so it is important that you purchase a RFID Reader that can read both types - i.e. Dual Reader. Some Readers can only read HDX and this will limit you to having to exclusively use HDX tags which tend to be more expensive.

In most countries there are mandartory tagging schemes operating which will specify the tags that all animals must carry. Most dairy farmers will also tag with a management tag which gives the animal its number within the herd. As one animal leaves the herd (dies or is culled) the number is reassigned to another animal entering the herd.

The Zee Tags one piece or two piece designs are popular as management tags. There are 8 colours to choose from and these can be printed with either Duramark® or LaserBlack.

This stands for Radio Frequency Identification and is also refered to as Electronic ID. RFID eartags carry a unique electronic identification number and allows animals to be electronically recognised and data stored automatically about each animal.
