Totally Wild - The Farm

The Farm

Date:23/01/2009

This week Pip and Sean go down to the farm - cow slobber and pig poo are just some of the things they have to cope with!

Sean and I ventured out to the country to play with all sorts of baby farm animals… little did we know we'd be heading home so smelly!

First up we headed to the piggery- which STUNK!!! Luckily we got to play with one day old piglets which things more bearable. I seemed to have a knack with these little guys and took to nicknaming myself 'the pig whisperer'. Sean however, didn't make friends with his 3 month old snorter, but even so the pig (nicknamed Sean Junior the 2nd) still gave him a nice little present… a handful of poo!

We did manage to get away without any messy incidents when we visited a field of beautiful horses and their foals, and as you can see Sean even managed to make a friend out of one of them.

Despite a few nudges here and there for the handfuls of food, goat territory also proved a breeze too!

Then last, but definitely not least, after sinking in mud, we got to the calves. They didn't seem to like us at first (and we'll blame our cameraman's joke of calling the cows Cow-moflaged, for that) but we finally got to pat a calf. All was well until it decided our arms were udders and covered us in slobber- gross!

This was probably one of the messiest days filming I've had yet!!!
