My understanding is that it's fine as long as I don't feed the lambs & wash my hands thoroughly after stroking any other animals. Anything else I should know??
Yeah I think it's just the sheep that are the problem.
I went to one last year. Took anti bac wipes with me, when we got home I took everyone's shoes off at the door and washed them and washed the pram wheels ( perhaps a little paranoid but didn't want to risk it)
I live on a farm and spend most days at the stables! It's fine just wash hands as usual. It's only lambs and sheep who have just lambed or are just about to lamb that you should avoid touching.
