00:00Okay, so let me get this right, it's Huw Ann, Huw Ann?

00:03Yes, Huw Ann, yeah.

00:05And you're from Wales, obviously, yeah?

00:07Yeah, from North Wales.

00:09So you're the ideal person, really, to be in charge of the lambs here at Lower Drayton Farm?

00:13Yeah.

00:15You've got some newborns, haven't you, here at the farm?

00:17Yeah, so we've got six lambs so far.

00:19Yeah.

00:21This one's the first one that was born on the farm.

00:23She's born the 31st of January.

00:25Right.

00:27And then the latest one we have is the two that are born on Friday.

00:29Got you.

00:31So one was born in front of customers as well.

00:33And are you expecting any more?

00:35Yeah, so there's still about 80 to lamb as well.

00:3780? Ah, fantastic.

00:39Yeah, roughly around 80 to lamb.

00:41Goodness me.

00:43And some surprises as well, because they were a bit too late to scan as well.

00:45Right, right.

00:47And do you name them?

00:49Yeah, we do name them.

00:51So who's this then?

00:53This is Jan, because she was born the last day of January.

00:55Oh, Jan, that's nice.

00:57She was born after Shaun the sheep as well.

00:59Oh, that's brilliant.

01:01People are free to come along and see them, aren't they?

01:03Is that right?

01:05Yeah, so people can come and see us all through half term.

01:07So we're open from today

01:09and then we're open again on Friday as well

01:11for a week in half term.

01:13And what kind of comments have you had about them?

01:15Everybody adores them.

01:17Says, oh, they're cute.

01:19Yeah, so everybody does like them.

01:21And they ask questions as well.

01:23Are people able to feed them at all?

01:25No, so we don't do the feeding here on the farm.

01:27Right.

01:29But we do do feeding demos.

01:31So whoever's on the lambing barn will make a demo

01:33of how we feed the lambs.

01:35Well, I'm sure they're going to be popular anyway.

01:37Yeah.

01:39Okay, thanks very much.
