NEW for 2025 Spring Baby Animal Experience.
Join us in Spring 2025 for a lambing experience with a difference. You will not only get to meet our lambs you will also meet our kid goats, piglets, calf andon some dates we may have chicks and ducklings.
Plus, our Spring baby animal experience is different to larger commercial farms. Your group / family will have exclusive time visiting the pregnant ewes, lambs, pregnant goats and kids in the barn and poly tunnel. Piglets in our new piggery and calf in the paddock. There will be no other groups in these areas at the same time as you, so you will have plenty of time to cuddle the lambs / kids and take photos.
Sessions are 90mins long and we are also offering 60-minute visits for lambing & kidding visits only which will be taking place throughout the day. The timing of the visits means you will not be sharing the barn but may see other visitors around the farm at the same time. Click here to see further information on our lambing visits.
What age group is this suitable for?
Our baby animal experiences are suitable for children aged 3 years + to adult. Our baby animals are delicate, and we ask that adults hold the lambs, kids & piglets for younger children. The children can then stroke the animals on the adult's laps. Calves will be to large too cuddle but you can give them a stroke. Please note pregnant ladies are not able to come to the farm during lambing time for the safety of their unborn child and themselves.
What animals will we see on this visit ?
You will get to see our pregnant ewe, ewes who have given birth, lambs, Boer goat nannies, Boer goat kids, Pygmy goat nannies and Pygmy goat kids, sow, piglets, cows and calf. We have various breeds of sheep and hope that we will have Dutch spotted lambs, Jacob lambs, Suffolk lambs, Llyen lambs, Shetland Lambs, Zwarble lambs, Herdwick lambs, Southdown lambs, Romney lambs. Of course until they are scanned in January we wont know or sure.
Will we get to bottle feed a lamb?
We understand that bottle feeding a lamb is fun however we hope that all of our lambs will be feeding from mum as this is the best start for them. We anticipate having around 60 ewes lambing in 2025 and there is a small possibilty we may have one or two lambs to bottle feed. If we do have any bottle fed babies then guests who are here during their feed time will be able ot assist. Please note there is no guarantee of bottle feeding.
Can we stay on the farm afterwards?
Sorry, this not possible at this moment in time for safety reasons. We do have some electric fencing in areas and are unable to allow visitors to walk around without a member of our team.
Will we get to see any other animals?
You may see some on your walk from the barn, polytunnel, piggery and paddocks but will not be able to see all of the animals. We do offer other experiences through the year which include meeting and feeding all of our animals.
