I have the same type of questions. I just have a few sheep (compared to many 
of you) - 22 at last count. Does this law apply to everyone who has sheep, 
even us 'hobbiest's"?

Thanks!

I have questions about scrapie and the eartags. I am all confused about the
whole thing. I know what scrapie is, I have read a bit about it. What I am
not sure of is the law on the eartags. Does everyone have to put eartags of
any kind on their sheep, especially the ones they sell? Or is it just if you
sell to someone that will be taking the sheep out of state. I live in
Northern California, close to Redding. If someone else lives in California
maybe they can tell me what the law is. We are mainly raising the sheep for
our own use but will sell some of the lambs later on. The sheep we bought
didn't have eartags of any kind on them. 

Thank you,
