Lambing Special

Adam Henson and Anita Rani head to Devon to look at all stages of lambing, the success of which can shape a farm's fortunes for months to come.

For sheep farmers, lambing is make or break, a short, intense window of long days and sleepless nights where every decision and every newborn lamb can shape a farm鈥檚 fortunes for months to come.

In this lambing special, Adam Henson and Anita Rani head to Devon. With its near-perfect mix of landscape, climate and farming tradition, the south west is an ideal region for lambing.

From scanning ewes for pregnancy to the rush of new births and bottle-feeding vulnerable lambs through their early days, Adam and Anita look at all stages of lambing, following the teamwork, care and expertise that bring new life safely into the world in a county shaped by generations of sheep farming.
