When To Use Tail Paint

  • Immediately after calving or at least three weeks before breeding, tail paint can be used to identify cycles or pre-mating heats.
  • During the time when cows should be mated to identify cows to be bred.
  • After the cow has been bred.
  • After the cow has been confirmed pregnant.

Precautions to be taken in use: Keep out of reach of children. Contents under pressure - keep away from heat including sunlight. Do not puncture or drop - handle with care. Contents flammable. Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact. Avoid breathing vapors - use in a well ventilated area.

Cows detected in heat and then inseminated should not be repainted.

Use a different color when repainting inseminated cows. Open cows are then easier to identify.

Tailpaint will last up to four weeks unless that coat hair becomes loose which can happen.

How To Apply
Apply a 2" wide by 6" long strip along the ridge of the backbone right above the tail.

Spray against the lay of the hair for the first coat, then with the hair for the second coat.

Check the paint strip often. In 90% of cases, most of the paint will be rubbed off or clearly ruffled when a cow is in heat. Paint is rarely removed by occasional mounting of cows when not in heat.
