We have used this paint for years. Yes, it does not dry quick. Yes, it does only last a short time (several months) but... it works for us and we use it to quickly identify lambs. Our lambs are also tagged, but the paint numbers are always legible and we can quickly identify a problem and get it pared to the right ewe without going to the house and looking up a ear tag number. If we need the number longer than a few month's we can re-brand them.

Takes too long to dry. Useless on live animals that move and possibly touch others or objects before the paint is dry.

Looks good for a couple weeks and then begins to wear off.

It has been a long time since i used paint at lambing time. Trying to cut expenses this year, so thought I would try it instead of ear tags in baby lambs. the only reason rating a 3 star is haven't used it yet.

I haven't used sheep branding paint for years. this paint is bright and dries in a couple of hours. Irons clean-up nice with warm soap and water. We used the color blue.
