Video Diary : East Okement Farm, Bringing a Lamb into the World

Join the Penna family as they help a ewe give birth to her lamb. PLEASE NOTE this film contains graphic footage of the birth.

This film was made in late May, and has been shot by Josh Penna. The Penna family lamb their sheep later than most other families. It’s a schedule that suits them and their sheep - the farm is at 1300 feet above sea level, with sheep grazing on the high moors. Lambing at this time of year means they can be sure the winter is over.
