Does any one use footbath mats for sheep's feet? And if do how do you get on with them? I am looking for something to cut down the splashing and ease flow( straw is ok for a while) .
I have 3m×0.9m footbath does anyone make one for that size?
Sorted for all the questions.
TIA

Yes I use them.





Get on well with them and lambs run far better than straw in the bath.

Less mess and contamination.

We just buy an inch thick upholstery foam and sit it in the footbath

Any other product that would work through a foam mat apart from formalin for sheep to walk through with decent results? Managing to keep plenty of grass on front of the lambs this year for a change but struggling with scald. Standing them in zink sulphate keeps it at bay but soon relapse. Time consuming job also.
