3 years ago…..
Couldn’t let this day go by with showing the day Worcester donkey rescue welcomed our first 3 rescues all the way from France, Scoobie, Murphy & Olive, 3 years ago today! Seems like yesterday, our numbers have grown since then, and we continue to strive to help donkeys in need, the work goes on….
The importance of Salt
We often get asked if there is anything we need for the donkeys, salt licks are always on our list, here is Rosie demonstrating using one, they are such an important supplement as they replenish electrolytes, and maintain a healthy water consumption, in the wild they will obtain salt by licking rocks or dirt, with so many donkeys we get though quite a lot, which is why they are on our Amazon wish list, if your looking to do a good deed take a look. https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/3O6RSVBZL9D72?ref_=wl_share.
The British weather 🌨️🌨️🙈🙄
We have the most wonderful followers who know I love all things natural to suppliment the donkeys diet, my friend and mentor Karen Perry Animal Therapy has taught me everything I know, we were lucky enough to be donated some lavender that had been dried, lavender has a calming effect and can have a positive effect on their mood, this is great for donkeys who come in with past trauma, we also had some home grown garlic, which we chopped up to put in their feeds, garlic improves gut health, boosts the immune system, delivers antioxidant defence and acts as a natural fly repellent (great this time of year) and many more benefits. As you can see nothing goes to waste, they love the lavender storks as well, If you are a keen gardener or have an allotment and would like to help please get in touch to see what other natural herbs we use,
This is a good one for them to try and work out!
