Our Animals
At Fairview Lodge we currently have about 130 animals under our care these animals currently include 4 calves, 15 horses, 2 sheep, 2 goats, over 70 birds which include turkeys, geese, ducks, chickens and the list goes on.
On the 9th of August 2015 Fairview Lodge received a phone call by 2 females who were willing to donate $200 for Fairview Lodge to save some sick calves from a farm that were in desperate need of help. When Kerri (the owner) and Aleriah (volunteer) got to the farm they were shocked to find the conditions of this farm were very poor. Fairview Lodge were only able to save 4 calves due to the owner not allowing them to buy any more. When the 4 calves arrived at Fairview Lodge the volunteers were horrified at the condition the 4 calves were in, they were the most anorexic they could possibly be without dying, they were barely able to walk and they were scouring extremely badly. For the first time ever in the calf’s lives they finally have a warm stable to sleep, water and milk awaiting them. Thankfully they calves are currently recovering very well and are slowly and safely putting their weight back on. Bentley is one of our biggest horses at 17 hands, in his younger stages of life he was a jump racer and from this came a lot of injuries, his back legs were in major need of medical attention and his voice box had been taken out so he couldn’t call out to other horses or call out while he was in pain. Fairview Lodge decided to take him on board after he was unable to race anymore and his owner didn’t want him any longer. After Bentley had arrived at Fairview Lodge the owners (Kerri and Michelle) found that he has a respiratory so it was hard to find a suitable owner who could care for him properly, he is now a permanent residence at Fairview Lodge and is loved by everyone. We have over 100 birds at Fairview Lodge made up by chickens, rosters, geese, ducks and even turkeys, many of our poultry has been donated through the general public and some bought from markets and saved from being someone’s dinner. We love each of our birds and would love to see them all go to there forever homes. They can be a great addition to any family as they are easy to look after and clean up after. Contact Fairview Lodge for more details on how you can adopt some of our beautiful birds.
