Sprayline
The easiest and most accurate sheep spray marker that we have ever used or tested.
Shipping
Common Uses
- Matching lambs and mothers.
- Identifying fat, thin, diseased or cull animals in pens and chutes.
Specs
Q: Why is this now called Sprayline instead of SuperSprayline?
A: It's the identical product in the identical cans from the identical manufacturer. However the SuperSprayline label includes the name of a British supplier (Britain is the biggest market in the world for sheep spray markers)—and their company name is the same as an agribusiness in the USA that we like and respect. So we switched to cans labeled for the New Zealand market.
Benefits
How many numbers will a can produce? In our tests, a red 400 ml can of Sprayline produced approximately 450 numbers (2" to 3" in height) on a porous surface (burlap).
Tips
- Smaller numbers are more readable for a longer time.
- Sprayline will last longer if used with a full fleece. Animals with that are haired rather than wooled will "wear" Sprayline for a shorter period of time.
Precautions
Accepted as scourable in the UK but not in the USA. (No, we cannot account for this.)

Works well we have used a variety of colors for a couple years, seems to stay visible for about 4–6 weeks when on a pasture environment, even longer in confinement. We now only use on the head/neck because it does stain wool even as it grows out and that stain does not scour (product doesn’t claim that it does) but it does not change the texture of the wool like marking crayons or marking harness crayons do. (No waxy film.) Overall I feel that if you must mark this is the best way to do it.

The outer cap is so hard to get off I broke the button where the spray comes out rendering the whole can useless.
Elizabeth N from Dominican Republic
It’s great good quality. I reccommend.
Jason M from Indiana
High visibility, easy to see.
Joyce W from Indiana
The spray paint cans are great for marking sheep that I intend to sell out of a group of sheep. That makes pulling individuals out of a group a lot easier.
