Laravel Validation - number must start with 0 (zero)

How to do input validation that a number must start with 0?

For example:

$rules = [
    'full_name' => 'required|min:6',
    'number' => 'required|numeric|min:5',
];

On the number field, it is requred, must be numberic only and minimum of 5 digits. I also need to include rule that it must start with 0?

You can try it with 

substr(Input::get('number'), 0, 1);

as data field and the rule 

'in:0'

But as php will cut leading zeros if you are transmitting the number as int, it will most likely be hard. If it's a number as string, it will work.
