LAMBING 24: Hands on in the Lambing Shed

Join farmer Tim Stephens for a hands-on lesson in lambing. You’ll learn how to care for pregnant sheep, to recognise labour, common problems and unusual behaviour, after-care of ewe, before moving to the lambing shed. You’ll be able to join overnight inspections and lambing in the shed.

We have done everything possible to give the best chance of lambing during the course but we cannot 100% guarantee it.

Course price includes: accommodation, lunch & supper on Saturday & breakfast on Sunday.  Pregnant women should read this information before booking.
