Livestock Tag and Identification Register
Keep track of which tag is on which animal, including the replacements that otherwise break the chain between an animal and its records.
Livestock and smallholding · LK-31
A free printable breeding record — sire, dam and offspring across generations, with registration numbers and where the papers are kept.
One page. Choose your paper size — both versions are laid out identically, so neither one gets shrunk to fit.
Print it and write on it
Fill it in type and save
The fillable versions have real form fields — open them in any PDF reader, type into them and save. Printing help.
Hold a pedigree on paper so breeding decisions and registrations can be made without reconstructing three years of matings from memory.
Pedigree breeders, smallholders keeping their own replacements, and breed society members.
The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.
No. It records the pedigree you know; it calculates nothing and advises nothing. Where inbreeding is a real risk, your breed society or a geneticist is the source.
Keep track of which tag is on which animal, including the replacements that otherwise break the chain between an animal and its records.
Record each kidding on the day, including the assistance and the losses, so next season is planned from what happened.
Keep each doe's breeding history in one place so that decisions about which to keep are made on evidence.
We are building this library out steadily. Leave an address and we will send the new sheets as they are finished — nothing else, and no more than one email a week.
Sign-up is not live yet — we have not connected an email provider, so this form is switched off rather than quietly collecting addresses.
