Details
Join Farmer Tim to learn the essentials of lambing and find out what goes on in a day in the lambing shed. In this hands-on lambing course you’ll learn how to:
Care for pregnant sheep.Recognise labour, common problems and unusual behaviour in labour.Deliver after-care of the ewe and lambs.
This day will consist of a mixture of class-room learning and time observing the ewes in the lambing shed, the format of the day will be dictated by the ewes in the shed.
We have done everything possible to give the best chance of lambing during the course but we cannot 100% guarantee it.
Our lambing courses are suitable for everyone, whether you have sheep and are planning to have lambs or just want to come and experience the magic of the lambing shed.
