We went to James O’Breckon’s farm yesterday.  Here are some of our stories about what we learned.

“James had the cows in separate sheds.  One had the cows that had not had calves and the cows that had calves were in the other shed.  James went in the pen with the bull!”

“James kept the lambs in with their mums until they got stronger.  If he put the lambs out in the field when they were first born they would die because they might not be warm enough.”

By Abbie Henderson, P3

“On Thursday we went to Breckon croft.  We saw all of their animals.  We saw cows, calves, sheep and lambs.  First we saw the cows and calves.  The cows on one side had already had calves.  On the otherside were the ones that still needed to have a calf.  They were on a diet, they did not have as much to eat.

Next we saw the sheep and lambs.  We went to the sheep pen, there was 200 sheep and lambs in the park. James said that they had over 700 hill sheep.  Breckon has one caddie lamb but they think they have found a mum for it.”

“We went to Breckon farm.  We went to see the sheep and the cows.  We saw baby lambs and a baby cow.  The sheep have four udders to feed the lambs.  The cows on the right had calves with them and the cows on the left had no calves yet.

We saw the New Holland which is a tractor.  It was a T6.”
