I've never heard of this sort of chip

I've heard of Home Again and Avid... which is what Kayah has.

The lady at the vet's office said that they put in not one but TWO types of chips as sometimes a shelter or vets office doesn't have the correct scanner needed (huh)
She scanned Kayah.. and nothing came up wow!! good to know that if something were to happen.. and my baby got lost.. that they might not have the right scanner to bring my baby home

Anywho, what have you guys heard of this Crystal Tag??
And the fact that they do two chips at once?
If it's a new chip, then they have a different scanner and of course your Avid or Home Again chip would not show up on theirs. Maybe that's a ploy for getting people to buy their chip.
My girls have the Home Again chip, and it shows up on ALL Vet. and animal shelter scanners.
