Newlyns Farm Lambing Weekend!

Yesterday my family and I went to Newlyns Farm in Basingstoke. We spent our afternoon hanging out with some sheep and Lambs. It was a real experience for me and it really felt Spring was on it's way! Here are a few pictures to make it clearer for all of you......

The Entry was £3 for adults and any child under the age of 3 was free. You then went around some cages where you saw the Lambs with their mother. As you can see the little lambs were only a few hours old. If you were lucky you got to see the mothers giving birth. It was very touching and warming to see. However you had to be brave as it did involve quite a lot of blood. There was also few week old lambs in a separate cage. 

They were so adorable! They also talked a lot and if you touched them they would give you a head but! After having a good look at the sheep we also looked at the pigs, chickens and ducks! There were also little chicks.....

After looking round the farm we then had lunch. We had a hog roast burger and for pudding a berrie and clotted cream ice cream.
