Description

Made of Aluminum, with 9" long formed wire handles, Light Weight 1/2" depth.Paint brands have been a favorite for decades for temporary identification in the lambing barn. Many shepherds paint the same number on the ewe as the lamb. The brands last about one month and are easy to see from a distance. Just by walking through the pen you can find the mother of the starving lamb and check to see why. Many producers paint brand the ewes and lambs when they leave the jug starting with 1 on the first ewe and going up from there. This also gives the producer an approximate age of the lambs at a quick glance. The brands work great for the first few weeks and then fade by weaning so if you don’t want to loose track of the lambs you will want to get a tag or tattoo in before the paint brand fades
