The council's program will offer three types of tags, two being the rectangular-shaped tag and trapezoid-shaped tag, both of which will have the animal's unique traceability number and space for a barn management number to be custom-printed on the yellow "male" portion. On the "female" portion of those two tags can be a button or a secondary panel in one of six different colours.
The third option is a yellow RFID (radio frequency identification) button.
