Welcome to Numnuts

Validated by CSIRO, Numnuts provides lambs the best start in life, giving welfare focused sheep farmers an ethical, sustainable approach to castration and tail docking.

Give your lambs the best start in life

Worldwide, more than 100 million lambs are castrated and tail docked each year without pain relief. Numnuts’ patented technology is a practical, farmer-friendly method for alleviating the pain suffered when lambs go through these husbandry procedures. 

NumOcaine (Numnuts pain relief) is injected at the same time as ring application to the tail or testes, providing targeted pain relief that kicks in almost immediately.

"It was the highlight of our year at Aloeburn Poll to work with the team at Numnuts. We are constantly looking to increase all aspects of animal welfare and lift the productivity of our efficient, productive Poll Merinos."
