So, where did it all start?

Sagebrush Tags (2013)

Sagebrush Tags started out of a garage in South Dakota – Laura wanted to start providing ear tags to ranchers in the area. Eventually getting a website, her business really took off, and after becoming part of Strayhorn, we’re now proud to offer our own brand of ear tags!

CattleVacBox (2017)

In 2017, a rancher in Colorado had a common issue – she was investing a lot of money per year in vaccine, but there wasn’t a great way to protect it!

Her solution comprised of a fishing tackle tray, an Igloo cooler, and some determination. As her friends and family started loving it, she saw that there was potential to help hundreds of other ranchers with her solution. Thus the CattleVacBox was born.

We’re in Stock. You’re In Control.

In 2021, in the midst of an industry-wide crisis for ear tags, as lead times stretched further and further, ranchers all over America found themselves without their yearly supply of ear tags.
We now offer our own brand of Strayhorn Tags, which we commit to keeping in stock, so that you can always have the tools you need, when you need them!

Testimonials

"It's hard to know where to start when leaving feedback on the cattle vacbox. I'll begin with the product and then end on the exceptional customer service. I have used a prototype that was sent to me in May and have used while vaccinating several different groups of weaned calves in central Alabama. With 90 degree days and pushing 100% humidity, we were in need of a product like this. We've made our own in the past, however they never held up. These boxes are extremely convenient and durable. With three syringe holes, it makes it very easy to put the the vaccine. With limited man power, whoever works the chute can catch the calf in the squeeze chute and then give the shots. Also included with the box is a convenient storage tray for vaccine refills and additional needles. You literally never have to walk away from the chute.
The second benefit to the cattle vacboxx is their great customer service. When you call with a question or issue, you are greeted by a very knowledgeable and pleasant person. They are product and if you don't have one, you need to get one! You will not be disappointed."

"Fast, friendly service, prompt shipping and delivery. So far a great product, as my herd grows I'll need to upsize my box."

- Lloyd Hoover

"Can’t say enough good things about the customer service and product! Will be sharing this box as much as possible so there are more ranches with them! Thank you CattleVacBox!"

- Agnes Black

"Got the Cattlevac JR it is just the right size, really like the carrying handle. Fits perfectly in the back seat. Keeps everything organized. Would like to see some added accessories for the JR in the future."

- Pete Blayne Burkhalter

"This is a great product and great people to deal with. I can’t wait to put it to use. I am usually rough on equipment but I have no doubts this box will pass the test. Thank you CattleVacBox."

- Lyn Cotter

"The boss has been a big help with our poultry vaccines keeping cold for days instead of like the old coolers where it was only staying cold for a day. I would recommend this company and cattlevacboxes to anyone thinking and needing one. Well worth it. I can’t say enough good about the company and their products"

- Paige Spivey

"I can't say enough good things about my cattlevac box and the company that sells them! I've used other boxes and they just didn't have the features I would have liked and seemed they were always a mess. The cattlevac box is well made and easy to keep clean and organized. The customer service is 2nd to none. I had one small hiccup with my box and they immediately took care of it and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect! Can't recommend them enough!"
