Applications and Usage
The Paxton FB2 footbath is a practical biosecurity tool for sheep farmers managing foot scald, foot rot, and other hoof-related conditions. Used as part of a routine post-gathering disinfection protocol, it helps reduce the spread of bacterial infection when animals are temporarily confined in a small area. The ribbed anti-slip base encourages direct contact between the hoof and the treatment solution, maximising the effectiveness of each pass through the bath. Its linkable design allows multiple units to be connected in series, extending the treatment run for larger flocks or creating a multi-step treatment and clean-water rinse sequence. The MDPE construction ensures long service life even with repeated exposure to concentrated formalin and other chemical treatments, and the low-profile body makes it easy to integrate into existing handling systems, races, and gateways without structural modification. Gathering sheep creates an elevated risk of cross-infection between animals, so running the flock through a footbath post-gathering is considered best practice in managing lameness and maintaining herd health standards.
