No, this is just a variation of the old 52 TB ad, that's been going around for a couple of years now. Don't ring it, it's probably a premium rate number.

I know you mean well OP, but Snopes is great for checking this sort of rubbish

Another hoax still doing the rounds!!!!

There is also an advert on ebay regarding 2 foals which has since been removed but again premium rate numbers!!!! Ebay removed advert as its livestock but one dealers website still has it on!!!!
