Agri Health Tail Tape for Livestock & Horses
Description
Agri Health Tail Tape — Yard and Calving Kit Essential
Agri Health Tail Tape is a roll of handling tape used to wrap and secure animal tails during routine livestock and equine work. It is made for farmers, stud staff, grooms and yard owners who need the tail held tidily out of the way during calving, foaling, clipping, travelling or veterinary examination.
Kept in the calving box, grooming kit or vet cupboard, it tears and wraps quickly so you can work one-handed while the other hand keeps hold of the animal. It suits cattle, horses, ponies and cobs alike.

How to Use
- Restrain the animal safely in a crush, stocks or stable with a competent handler.
- Gather the tail hair together and hold it along the dock.
- Start the tape at the top of the dock and wrap down in overlapping turns.
- Wrap firmly but never tightly — you should be able to slide a finger beneath the wrap.
- Secure the end of the tape against itself and fold the tail up or to one side as required.
- Check the tail regularly while wrapped, then cut the tape away carefully when finished and dispose of it responsibly.
FAQ
What is Agri Health Tail Tape used for?
It is used to wrap and secure an animal's tail so it stays out of the way during calving, foaling, clipping, travelling and veterinary examination.
Can it be used on horses as well as cattle?
Yes. It suits cattle, horses, ponies and cobs wherever a tail needs wrapping or holding tidily during handling.
How tight should the tape be wrapped?
Firmly enough to stay in place, but never tight enough to restrict circulation. You should be able to slide a finger under the wrap, and the tail should be checked regularly.
Is the tape reusable?
It is best treated as a single-use consumable. Cut it away after use and apply a fresh wrap on the next animal for better hygiene.
How long can a tail stay wrapped?
Only for as long as the task requires, and always under supervision. Remove the tape as soon as the job is finished rather than leaving it on.
How should the roll be stored?
Keep it in a dry place away from direct heat and sunlight so the tape handles and adheres consistently.
