00:00Hello, welcome to My Pet and Me. I'm Fern.
00:05And I'm Rory. We've just been getting the barn ready for the animals.
00:08We like to make sure that they have the right food and water.
00:11And a comfy place to sleep as well.
00:13Lots of different animals make excellent pets and we love coming to meet you and yours.
00:17We certainly do and I'm off to meet some new friends now.
00:20You can come with me if you like. See you later.
00:22See ya.
00:23Come on.
00:25My pets, my pets and me
00:28My pets, my pets and me
00:31Down every street
00:34Are pets to meet
00:36Some big, some small
00:38Some skinny, some furry
00:40Some keep very still
00:41Some are always in a hurry
00:43Some have four paws
00:46Some have sharp claws
00:48Some quack, some bark
00:50Some purr, some moo
00:52Some squawk, some cock-a-doodle-doo
00:55My pets, my pets and me
00:58My pets, my pets and me
01:01My pets, my pets and me
01:03Have you met my pets and me?
01:11Today we're on the Isle of Skye to meet Timmy and his lambs.
01:14Let's go find them.
01:19Hi Timmy.
01:21Hi friends.
01:22Hi, how are you?
01:23Fine.
01:24Hi.
01:26Are these your lambs?
01:28Yes.
01:29They are beautiful.
01:31What are their names?
01:33Troy and Noah.
01:35So Noah has the whole black face and Troy's got little black and white spots.
01:39Yes.
01:40And what type of sheep are they?
01:42Black faces.
01:43And how old are Troy and Noah?
01:45Nine weeks.
01:46So they're still quite young, aren't they?
01:48Yes.
01:49What is your favourite thing about having lambs?
01:51You get to cuddle them and give them milk.
01:54Which one's the most cuddly?
01:56Troy.
01:57And which one's the cheekiest?
01:59Troy.
02:00Is he? He's everything.
02:02Hello you.
02:05How many sheep do you have?
02:07A lot.
02:08A lot.
02:09Why do you keep them separate from the rest of them?
02:12Well they're still babies and we're still feeding them milk and they don't have any mums.
02:18So you're hand raising them?
02:19Yes.
02:20And then when they get a bit bigger will you introduce them to the rest?
02:23Yes.
02:24When sheep live in a group what's it called?
02:26A flock.
02:27Should we go visit the flock?
02:29Yes.
02:30I would love to see them.
02:31Daddy can look after the lambs.
02:33Should we go?
02:34Yes.
02:41Timmy is this the rest of the flock?
02:43Yes.
02:44They're gorgeous.
02:45You live in such a beautiful area.
02:48Now am I right in saying that you can speak another language?
02:51Yes.
02:52What is it?
02:53Gaelic.
02:54Gaelic is a Celtic language spoken in some parts of Scotland.
02:57That's really cool.
02:59So can you tell me what sheep is in Gaelic?
03:02Cura.
03:03Cura.
03:04And what is a lamb?
03:05Uan.
03:06Uan.
03:07Am I pronouncing it right? Uan?
03:08Yes.
03:09And where are we now?
03:10Scotland.
03:11What's Scotland in Gaelic?
03:13Alba.
03:15Alba.
03:16Do you think that's what your sheep say?
03:18Yes.
03:19Rory, can you tell us some more facts about our woolly friends here in Alba?
03:24Of course, Ferm.
03:26One.
03:27Lambs have great eyesight and some even have rectangular-shaped pupils.
03:33Two.
03:34Lambs have lovely thick woolly coats that help to keep them warm and dry in cold and snowy weather.
03:41Three.
03:44The baa noise a sheep makes is called a bleat,
03:47and a baby lamb knows its mummy by the sound of her bleat and her smell.
03:58Timmy's lambs are still young, so he needs to help care for them
04:01because their mummies couldn't look after them.
04:03So what do we have to do, Timmy, to look after your lambs?
04:06We have to clean out the pen and give them milk.
04:11Give them milk. That sounds like a lot to do.
04:13Should we get started while they're out playing?
04:15Yes.
04:16What do you think your lambs are doing outside?
04:18Running around.
04:20Are they good at running?
04:21Yes.
04:22What do we do?
04:23We have to use these to pick up all the poo and put it in the bucket.
04:28Right. Let's do that then.
04:31So the back of the pen here, where I am, is this where they sleep?
04:36Yes.
04:37OK.
04:38And this is where they play.
04:40Lovely.
04:42Oh, there are lots of poos here.
04:47How often do you clean out the pen?
04:49Once a week.
04:51That's good.
04:52Sheep and lambs spend most of their time outside,
04:55but because Timmy's lambs are quite young,
04:57it's important that there's shelter nearby
04:59so they can hide from nasty weather, can't they?
05:01Yes.
05:05I think that's enough.
05:06I don't think that wheelbarrow can take any more.
05:09Shall we take it out?
05:11Yes.
05:16Good work, Timmy.
05:20Shall we put it in the bucket?
05:22Yes.
05:24Shall we make them a fresh bed?
05:26Yes.
05:38Spread the big pieces everywhere.
05:41OK.
05:45We have to give the lambs new water.
05:49Whoa.
05:53What do your lambs eat?
05:55Sheep food.
05:56Shall we get them some?
05:57Yes.
06:01Oh, perfect.
06:03Timmy's lambs are old enough now that they've started to creep feed,
06:06which means that they nibble on lots of different things around them,
06:09including this yummy sheep food.
06:12Well, they've got some nice food, they've got some water,
06:15and their bed and their play area is ready.
06:17Shall we get them in, give them some nice warm milk?
06:19Yes.
06:20Who's going to bring your lambs in?
06:22Mummy!
06:23Is Mummy going to bring your lambs in?
06:25Yes.
06:26Shall we get the milking stools then?
06:27Yes.
06:28Get them ready.
06:37There we go.
06:39Hi.
06:41Hi.
06:42You have to be careful feeding lambs, don't you?
06:44Yes.
06:45What do we do when you're feeding them?
06:47Count to ten.
06:48Shall we count?
06:49Yes.
06:50One sheep.
06:51Two sheep.
06:52Three sheep.
06:53Four sheep.
06:54Five sheep.
06:55Six sheep.
06:56Seven sheep.
06:57Eight sheep.
06:58Nine sheep.
06:59Ten sheep.
07:01Milk comes out of a bottle a lot faster than it would an udder,
07:05so it's important to take lots of breaks when you're feeding sheep
07:08so their tummies don't get too full too quickly.
07:11There you go.
07:12Look at their tails!
07:14Happy, happy lambs!
07:16One sheep.
07:17Two sheep.
07:18Three sheep.
07:19Four sheep.
07:20Five sheep.
07:21Six sheep.
07:22Seven sheep.
07:23Eight sheep.
07:24Nine sheep.
07:25Ten sheep.
07:32That way they know they're done.
07:33What do you think of your bed?
07:35He doesn't care about his bed, does he?
07:38Too busy eating their food.
07:41What happy, cuddly lambs.
07:50Happy, happy lambs, yay!
07:54Timmy, your sheep are so playful.
07:58If they could do anything, what would they do?
08:03If my pets could do anything,
08:06they would jump on a quad bike,
08:09they would go down a big hill saying baaa!
08:13and they'd get to a pier
08:16and jump onto a monkey wheel taxi.
08:19They would go zooming all around the sea
08:22Until they got to the land called Doodle Cock-a-Doodle-Doo
08:35Timmy, you do such a good job of looking after your land
08:38Do you have any other jobs?
08:39Yes
08:40What do you do?
08:41I help Daddy collect the wool
08:43That sounds like great fun, can I help you out now?
08:46Yes
08:47Shall we go?
08:49The lambs and sheep like to scratch themselves on trees and fences
08:52And sometimes their wool gets left behind
08:57Back piece
08:59Woah
09:00And Timmy loves collecting it
09:08I've got some here
09:11There's ropes on this tree
09:15Ooh
09:19Here you go
09:23And a wee piece
09:25Right here
09:32I've got an idea
09:34We could make a picture for the lambs
09:37That's lovely, to put in their pen
09:39Yes
09:40And can we use this wool?
09:42Yes, we could use it for clouds, lambs and sheep
09:46That would be really fun, shall we go?
09:48Yes, come on
09:55Troy and Nora are watching us
09:57They are, they're cheeky lambs, do you think they're excited?
10:00Yes
10:01Let's make the lambs' picture
10:04Yeah
10:12Yes
10:17Is that going to be a tree?
10:19Yes
10:20Do you think that looks like Noah?
10:22Yes
10:26I'm going to stick some wool on
10:30They are going to love this
10:32They're going to love this
10:35I'm going to draw Troy
10:38Yeah, because I'm doing Noah
10:43Can I have some wool for Troy's body?
10:46Yeah
10:47Thank you
10:53He's got loads of hair
10:56Yeah, keep them nice and warm
10:58That's some lovely blue sky
11:06Oh, I like the tree, that looks great
11:09I know what you could do
11:11What?
11:12Oh, a speech bubble
11:14Good idea
11:16I'm doing sun rising
11:19That's a nice idea
11:21Coming over the hill
11:23So it's really early morning
11:25Yes
11:27What about yellow buttercup dots?
11:29What about plop the barn owl?
11:33Plop the barn owl, is that what you've called your barn owl?
11:36Yeah
11:37Maybe we could do some poppies
11:40This is the wrong brush to do poppies
11:44Look, we've got our fingers
11:47There
11:50That is the biggest barn owl I've ever seen in my entire life
11:54This looks very ready to put up on the barn owl
12:00Should we show them?
12:01Yeah
12:02It's a masterpiece, Timmy
12:04Be careful not to let the lambs out
12:10Now, I think we should put it here
12:13Yeah, that's good
12:16Because we don't want the lambs to not see it
12:21Wow, what do you think?
12:24Try
12:26This is a great picture
12:29Do you think they like it, Timmy?
12:32Yes
12:34Thank you very much for introducing me to your amazing lambs
12:37I've had such a fun time
12:39Thanks Fern
12:40No problem
12:54Hi Rory, hi Roxy
12:56Hi Fern, how was your day?
12:57Oh, it was great, I had a brilliant time with my friends
13:00That sounds excellent
13:02Pets are great, but you shouldn't touch an animal unless the owner says it's OK first
13:06Two pets you definitely can play with are ours
13:09Go to the CBeebies website and play the My Pet and Me game
13:11What a fantastic time we've had, we just love meeting you and your pets
13:19Today we met a lovely pet
13:24Wendy, how much you care for them
13:27Thank you so much for sharing them
13:31Time for us to just remind you
13:36After you've played with your pet
13:40Wash your hands, don't forget
13:43It doesn't matter what pets you've got
13:46You might have one, you might not
13:49It's still fun finding out
13:52What having a pet is all about
13:55My pet, my pet and me
13:58My pet, my pet and me
14:01My pet, my pet and me
14:04Come back and see
14:05My pet and me
