Newborn Lamb Navel Dipping Cup

The Newborn Lamb Navel Dipping Cup is a practical lambing-care tool designed for applying suitable umbilical disinfectant to the complete navel cord of newborn lambs and goat kids. Full immersion of the cord helps simplify routine neonatal hygiene immediately after birth.

The reference design is manufactured from lightweight plastic and features a narrow-neck reservoir with an open dipping cup at the top. The reduced neck opening helps limit unnecessary evaporation and splashing, while the integrated clip allows the cup to be hung on lambing pens or carried conveniently during newborn processing.

The compact, reusable construction is suitable for commercial sheep farms, goat farms, lambing barns, veterinary areas and livestock breeding facilities where multiple newborn animals must be processed efficiently during concentrated lambing periods.

• Complete Navel Immersion: The dipping cup allows the umbilical cord to be surrounded by the selected navel-care solution for thorough coverage.
• Narrow-Neck Reservoir: Reduced neck diameter helps limit evaporation and unnecessary disinfectant loss during repeated lamb processing.
• Open Cup Design: No removable lid is required during normal dipping operations, helping simplify one-handed use in busy lambing environments.
• Integrated Hanging Clip: Built-in clip allows the cup to be attached to compatible lambing pens, rails or work clothing for convenient access.
• Low-Waste Application: Designed to concentrate the disinfectant around the navel rather than spilling solution over the operator or surrounding bedding.
• Reusable Plastic Construction: Smooth plastic surfaces support repeated use and routine washing between lambing sessions.
• Compact Farm Tool: Easy to include in portable lambing kits alongside gloves, ear tags, thermometers, feeding equipment and other newborn-care accessories.
• Suitable for Lambs and Goat Kids: Applicable to routine newborn umbilical care in both sheep and goat production.
• B2B Supply Options: Color, packaging and kit combinations are customizable according to project requirements.

A suitable livestock umbilical-care solution is poured into the reservoir until enough liquid is present to fully contact the newborn animal's navel cord.

The cup is positioned beneath the cord and raised until the entire navel is immersed. The solution coats the external cord surface and the area close to the abdominal wall. After complete coverage, the cup is lowered and the treated cord is allowed to dry according to the selected product instructions and farm hygiene protocol.

Because the reservoir retains the solution between applications, the cup provides a faster and more controlled treatment method than pouring liquid directly onto the cord. Appropriate solution replacement and cup cleaning are important to minimize cross-contamination between newborn animals.

2. Fill the reservoir with a suitable livestock navel-care solution according to the solution manufacturer's instructions.
3. Hold the newborn animal securely and keep the umbilical cord clearly accessible.
4. Position the cup below the cord and raise it until the cord is fully immersed up to the navel area.
5. Ensure all external surfaces of the cord receive adequate coverage.
6. Lower the cup carefully and allow the treated cord to dry.
7. Hang the cup on a clean lambing-pen rail using the integrated clip when not in immediate use.

Cleaning and Maintenance:

• Replace visibly contaminated solution rather than continuing to dip additional newborn animals.
• Empty the reservoir at the end of the treatment session.
• Wash the dipping chamber, neck and reservoir thoroughly according to the farm hygiene program.
• Disinfect reusable surfaces before the next lambing session.
• Inspect the body and clip for cracks or damage that could cause leakage.
• Allow the cup to drain and dry completely before storage.
• Store the clean cup together with other dedicated newborn lamb-care equipment.
