Apple Cider Vinager improves odds of Filly?

I am personally trying this for our 2009 foals.
After speaking with Pam, I have decided to expand the test field. If you would like to increase your odds of having a filly, please contact Pam Padilla at DesertHavenRanch@aol.com. ~Kelly
Pam Writes:
As I would like to compile a larger test group, I will share this recipe with you… As long as YOU would be willing to keep good records, be consistent, and get back with me with YOUR results!?!?!?!?!
Now, if possible get your mare started on this recipe about One (1) month prior to breeding, to get a good pH balance started in her system. It isn't absolutely necessary, but the longer that you have to get your mare started on this, the better the results!!
Feed 1/3 of a cup of Apple Cider Vinegar a day over your mares grain or feed ration. Most mares will take right to this, even the most finicky will take to it in NO TIME! And this will NOT interfere with a pending or upcoming foal, or interfere with your mares milk supply, OR even interfere with a nursing foal. It will not interrupt your mares regular routine at all.

And this will NOT interfere with a pending or upcoming foal, or interfere with your mares milk supply, OR even interfere with a nursing foal. It will not interrupt your mares regular routine at all.Now, the actual week of breeding, you will need to increase your mares intake of Apple Cider Vinegar to 2/3 of a cup TWICE A DAY!! And then after that week of breeding, return back to the 1/3 of a cup of Apple Cider Vinegar once a day until the mare is checked in foal. As you don't want to interfere with your setup program, just keep her on the maintenance program until she is checked in foal!! Return to the 2/3 of a cup twice a day the week that you are breeding if your mare failed to settle.
NO, I haven't lost my marbles here!!! And YES, it is still the Stallion that determines the sex of the resulting offspring!! This isn't rocket science here, but changing the pH balance in utero, will increase the odds of getting a filly by making it more female chromosome friendly!!! Feeding the Apple Cider Vinegar to your mare will change the pH balance in utero enough to make the environment more female chromosome semen friendly … Increase your odds of getting a filly!!!
So far with folks from all over the United States and even Canada, we are at 139 fillies to 31 colts!!! Now those aren't bad odds in anyone's book, especially MINE!!! This has come from folks using numerous stallions, using such methods of breeding as live cover, AI and even shipped and frozen semen!!
Now it also isn't absolutely necessary to start this program 30 days or so in advance… I've known of folks with VERY LARGE breeding operations, that just feed 2 to even 3 cups of Apple Cider Vinegar to the mares that they were breeding JUST the actual week of breeding!?!?! And they still got at least a better than 80% of their resulting foals to be fillies!! Again, not bad odds!?!?!?!
Just remember, that I would like to hear back from you on YOUR results!!!!
*For those of you WANTING A COLT, replace the Apple Cider Vinegar with 1 tablespoon of Baking Soda over your mares feed, doubling that amount the week you are breeding (everything else staying the same)... The Baking Soda changes the pH balance in utero, to be more male chromosome friendly, increasing your chances of getting a COLT!!! Pam Writes: Attached are pictures that I that I had of a chest injury (last year), that I treated with Automatic Transmission Fluid!!! Now, I used the stuff for Chevy's, as that is what WE DRIVE!!! But I can't say the stuff for Ford's or ???? Wouldn't work the same way!?!?!?! I learned this from an OLD COWBOY, that is well known in the Rodeo world... They have used this treatment on TOP DOLLAR Bucking stock for years, as they are HARD to treat, and many are worth thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars!!!! Now the TOP picture is right after the stitches blew out, they were in exactly ONE WEEK!!! And I did NOT use anything on the wound, other than to wash it like instructed, until the stitches were to come out, or after they blew out!!! The second picture down was ONE WEEK later, after using ATF. The third picture down is ONE WEEK later (total 2 weeks after starting with ATF). And the bottom picture is ONE WEEK later (a total of only 3 weeks using ATF)... Anyway... I just wanted to share these with you!!!! I am SOOOOOOO SOLD on using ATF for almost any injury!!! I can't even tell you!!!! My girlfriend and I tease that we think we should try to bottle it... Maybe add some die or coloring to it, or maybe some kind of fragrance or ??? something to it to disguise it!?!?!? We could make a MILLION BUCKS marketing something that works like this does!!!!!!! But, then we also figure, that if we added die, or a fragrance, that it wouldn't work like it does now!?!?!?! LOL Anyway... I just thought that I would pass this along, as once you try it... You will be as sold on it as I am!!!!!!!!!! I want to thank Pam for sharing these VERY helpful hints! I know I use them & I am more than happy with the results. Thanks Pam!
ATF Treatment: NOW THIS ONE REALLY WORKS!!
I worship this treatment. I have had a filly with a massive chest wond and used the ATF treatment and now she will be shown AQHA/APHA in halter (you would never know she was hurt). My APHA, PtHA filly gashed open her rear pasturn and once again, healed PERFECT! ~Kelly
Now don't think I'm NUTS here... But this is really interesting information, and one of the BEST healing products for ANY injury that I have EVER USED!!!! 
I really need to see if I can get a current picture, you wouldn't even know that this filly even injured herself!?!?!?! There is NO SCAR whatsoever, absolutely nothing!!!! She has a few little lumps under the skin, inside, it is scar tissue, that the Vet says will go away completely in a few more months!!!! Even my Vet couldn't believe what he had seen!!!!! And the ONLY thing that I treated it with is Automatic Transmission Fluid!!! I did wash it out with water each evening, and flushed it with peroxide, then let it dry, and sprayed on my ATF 3 times-a-day to start, then I went to twice-a-day, then once... Then I eventually went to every-other-day, and so on, until it was all healed up!!!! Our Vet said that he has heard of ATF as a treatment, but had never used it... But said that after seeing this filly's injury heal up like this, that this has changed his mind completely!!!! He said that ATF is a caustic agent, it encourages a wound to heal from the inside out... And being oil based, it also allows the dirt and so forth inside to FLUSH out when rinsed!! And it prevents PROUD FLESH from starting or developing!!! He had heard, and he fully believes it now, that it is one of the best treatments for leg injuries, as proud flesh is one of the main, if not the worst things to come from a leg injury!?!?!?!
