    Whilst Starmer butters his toast in a warm house this morning he should be showing more respect to the farmers out there doing this to feed him!

    Fabulous day hosting TRH the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge for a tour of our farm and a chat about the opportunities in being a mixed farm. Such a warm and well informed couple, absolute honour to host them. @NFUnortheast

    Simple joys. She adores this lamb and spends her days “teaching” it and brushing it, Penny’s suffering hearing loss at the moment and can feel quite isolated from other humans but this lamb brings back her confidence and smile! #farmkids #lambing18 #sheep #NextGeneration

    Weeeeeeeee this is how we slide!! Easiest way we’ve found to treat and vaccinate lots of little lambs accurately, rustic yet effective...bit like the shepherd 😆 #Lambing19 #teamsheep #sheep365 @sheep_farmers

    Pet lambs excited we’re dismantling the pens! Phase 1 lambing declared over. Dad made these pens 40yrs ago and each yr still builds/takes them down at 75, he’s my hero, farming Dads are very special people ❤️ #Lambing19 #backbritishfarming @FarmersGuardian

    Emergency night, mother sat down against the wall as lamb was coming backwards and broke her leg. Faced with difficult decision whether to save her life and so pleased I did as she’s up and sucking like a trooper. She needs a name? #fridaymorning #lambing2020 #FridayMotivation

    Amazing turnout today in Darlington. Every tractor representing a farm that won’t survive the budgetary changes #familyfarmtax

    Small yet mighty!! Too small to survive on the ewe as she couldn’t reach teats but not stopped her going for it as a pet lamb! Name suggestions welcome? #Lambing19 #FridayFeeling

    Tide in and tide out!! Quite therapeutic watching them 😆 Pet lambs very keen on their freshly mucked out pen, it’s their very own 5* hotel but without the confusing Gin selection and hefty bill #Lambing19 #farming #SpringWatch #Easter2019
