Works great, easy to install, we use bander ring to hold in place. The earlier you catch the better. Recommend keeping the two smaller ones on hand but the smaller one we use most.

Product says it’s for 70+ lambs I tried to put it in a 116 lbs ewe lamb and it wouldn’t go. Get the 1” version. I had to use a section of garden hose and some redneck engineering to secure the hosevia umbilical tape and fishing string but it did the trick. Point being you may want to order a couple sizes Incase it doesn’t fit let’s face it the product cost nothing compared to the shipping.
