Sheep Raddle Colours

The usual practice is to change the colour of the raddle after each 17 day period so that you can spot any ewes coming back into season. We use raddle in powder form, mix it with vegetable oil and slap it on the tup's chest before he goes in. Throughout tupping you will have conscientiously changed the raddle or keel colour of the tup every 10 or 17 days, now the task is to ensure you use this to your advantage.

The colours on the sheep's bums give you a huge amount of knowledge at tupping time, eg if the tup is fit for the job or not, managing to mount, being interested, covering the ewes, etc. But these colours can now aid.

The colour of the raddle gets changed during tupping time. Some may change the colour after 17 days, enabling them to tell which tup was used for the first 17 days and which was used for the remaining duration. Others change the colour more regularly, every week or ten days, enabling them to batch sheep at lambing time.
