Identification notches on a pig are typically located on the outer edge of the ear. They are used for individual identification and can be placed on either the left or right ear, depending on the system being used. The notches represent specific numbers or codes that correspond to the pig's identification within a herd or breeding program. This practice helps farmers and breeders track lineage and manage their livestock effectively.

Charles Daly chokes can be identified by their distinct notches that indicate the constriction level. Typically, the notches are located on the side of the choke tube, with each notch representing a different level of constriction—cylinder, improved cylinder, modified, and full. By counting the number of notches and their arrangement, you can determine the specific choke type. Always refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines for precise identification.
Ear notching pigs is a common method used for identification purposes. By making unique notches in a pig's ear, farmers can easily track individual animals and record information such as their age, breed, or health status. This system helps to monitor the pigs' progress and manage their care effectively.
Ear notching in swine is used to identify the litter number and pig number in that litter. The pig's right ear is used to identify the litter number from 1 up to 161 and the pig's left ear is used for the pig's number within that litter. Each ear is broken up into sections from the base around to the top of the ear and numbered 1,3,9,27, and 81 on the litter ear and 1,3, and 9 on the pig ear. Each section can have no more than 2 notches in it and then they are added up on each ear to determine the numbers such as for litter number 113 there would be 5 notches in the right ear and for pig number 6 there would be 2 notches in the left ear. It is recorded like 113-6. It isn't practiced as much now as in the past since ear-tags and tattooing are more readily available.
