1.  See 1, 2 & 3 in Health Rules for all Livestock

 

4. Individual official animal identification is required. 

Official ID includes:

    a) an official USDA scrapie ear tag; or

    b) an ISO compliant 15 digit ear tag (including RFID); or

    c) a USDA approved custom scrapie ear tag; or

    d) a USDA approved scrapie tattoo

 

Goats with an official USDA approved scrapie tattoo must also have a unique individual animal ID to meet the scrapie ID requirement.

 

Goats having a breed registration tattoo and accompanied by a registration certificate are exempt from the scrapie ID requirement if the tattoo is legible and a registration certificate or a CVI which lists the tattoo and registry accompanies the animal at all times during the transport from the premises of birth.

 

Out of State Goats:

Follow the same rules as in-state goats, plus see #5 under Health Rules for all Livestock, and Tuberculosis testing under cattle.
