Title: Got one tagged
Post by: Txhoghunter on August 01, 2010, 03:12:59 pm
Decided to go this morning to get a sow tagged at the ranch.  Called a good buddy of mine to help me out.  I just carried Hollywood and D-man and my cd, Hank.  Wasnt long we had a group bayed and I told Chris I hoped we caught the big spotted sow out of the group.  They must have heard me because when I walked into them to break up the group, they left and bayed in a pool, and had the spotted one  ;D  Got her caught and tagged, now we'll see where she goes.   8)

That's very cool.  I can't wait to see the data.

How often will you be checking on the location of the ear tag or does it pull and store data on regular pre-programmed intervals?

I ordered the system from advanced telemetry systems.  I will try to keep a weekly check on the location of the hogs.  As soon as we get all this corn and beans out of here I will try and place the other 4 tags as well. I wish I could figure out a way to pull up a map and show ya'll the approx locations from week to week, that would be interesting.

Use Google Earth, put a location marker where you track the pig, then save as a jpg.  Then upload to photobucket.
