Concise summary

Microchipping uniquely identifies animals for genetic tracing and breed registration. Use the common 15‑digit chips; some older 9‑ and 12‑digit chips still exist, so confirm your reader supports them. Typical implant sites are just behind the ear or, more commonly for livestock, in the tail web. Prep by washing with soap and water. Inject midway up the tail web, centerline. Always scan the chip before and after implantation to confirm function and placement.


Quick, practical checklist

  • Choose chip and reader:
    Confirm the chip format (15‑digit is standard; ensure your reader can read older 9/12‑digit chips).
  • Select site:
    Follow registry/species guidelines: commonly the tail web (midway up, centered) or just behind the ear.
  • Prep aseptically:
    Wash with soap and water; if available, use an alcohol or chlorhexidine wipe. Use a sterile needle/implanter.
  • Restrain animal:
    Ensure calm, secure restraint to avoid bad placement or needle breakage.
  • Scan first:
    Verify the chip reads and record the number before opening/implanting.
  • Inject correctly:
    Tent the skin, insert bevel up at a shallow angle into the subcutaneous space, and fully depress the implanter.
  • Scan after:
    Confirm the chip reads and is at the intended site. If not detected, gently rescan around the area.
  • Dispose sharps:
    Place used needles/implanter tips in an approved sharps container.
  • Recordkeeping:
    Log date, chip ID, implant site, animal ID, and operator. Update registration records.
  • Aftercare:
    Check the site for 24–48 hours for swelling or irritation; keep the area clean.
