Brian Edgar, Whitton Farm, Morebattle, (first time user 2025) and 8 weeks after fitting clips to older lambs using a chute system says, “Just sheared all the ewes last week, dosed the lambs and they look great 👌no issues at all, only 1 pet lamb that had a swelling reaction and just cut the clip off, very positive at the moment 👍😉. Keep the invention wheel turning!!🧙♂️😎😉”

Hamish Waugh, Effgil, Eskdalemuir (used clips for several years) says “Last thing I want is for these clips to fail. I think they are a brilliant idea and will do anything I can to ensure all male sheep are castrated this way. I think you are probably ahead of the others.”

Bruce Thomson, West Davoch, Aboyne (also used clips for many years) and who benefits from the legality on older lambs says “Here’s a video of us marking lambs on our chute – it all works well and particularly with the plastic clips we have no failures – 278 locked on every time here” . Bruce knows what he is doing placing the clip south to north, with the benefit that it won’t interfere with legs, nor will legs interfere with the clip (giving it peace to heal). Here is his own movie.
