Milk Experiment

 

The Great Edwards Foundation Milk Experiment

🥛🥛

After a visit to Texas Lynda learned that chicken and ducks can get calcium from dairy products. One of the volunteers (Jade) mentioned it to her mother (Brandy) who then donated several gallons of milk to our experiment to see how the animals liked it.

For this experiment we tried sour milk and normal milk. After researching on google we learned it takes one teaspoon of lemon or vinegar per cup and therefor one cup per gallon. We tried one pan with curdled milk and one pan with regular milk. And to sweeten our recipe we added a handful of mealworms.

The chickens LOVED it! We thank our friends in Texas for this great idea!

Now for the second time around we tried normal milk with mealworms mixed in. The ducks were hesitant, and we are not sure if it was because of 

the milk or the color of the bowl. 

 The ducks took a while to get the courage to come up and try a new calcium source. But eventually they came up and tried it.

In Loving Memory of Bill the Goat

 

A Good Friend

It is with heavy hearts that we said goodbye to our dear Nubian Goat Bill.

Bill passed away from natural causes on Friday and will be missed by his buddy Sam and all of the other goats and volunteers.

Bill and Sam were placed with Edwards Foundation after having survived a mountain lion attack at their home. The owners wanted to ensure they would be safe and we thank them for having chosen Edwards to love and care for them.

Bill will be remembered by all for his sweet disposition and gentle nature. R.I.P.

Pumpkins from Pine Lane Nursery

 Pine Lane Nursery donated lots of tiny pumpkins and great big ones, and volunteers, Zoe and Ramsay, had fun gathering them. The animals will enjoy these pumpkins.

Thank you, Pine Lane Nursery!

Ramsay and Zoe showing off the cute pumpkins gathered from Pine Lane Nursery. "It was cold but fun!" said Zoe, and Ramsay said she could gather up 10 at a time in her arms.

Zoe with her pockets full of tiny pumpkins! She looked like an Oompa Loompa.

A good harvest. Zoe practically had to climb into the box to gather up those tiny pumpkins.

At the farm, Owen chose a huge pumpkin to share with the goats.

John and Owen held the pumpkin for Sam the Goat to munch.

End of October Happenings at the Ranch

 

    Our furry friends came out to support the Terolyn horse rescue to raise funds to help pay for the rescued colt Neo, who had to spend 2 weeks in intensive care due to a hernia surgery. The scarves were made by Cheryl Allen. 

Go Broncos!

Need Help Marketing this Non-profit!

 

Due to the on going responsibilities at the Ranch, and my recent health issues, I am in need of someone who can help keep me up to date with this blog and social media. It is an important part of keeping the ranch going, also the animals happy and safe (which is our goal). If you know of anyone who can help please contact me at home 303.841.8338. It's not a ton a work but would require something fairly quick once day, possibly less. 

Thank you,

Lynda
