Hey guys!! I just got a miniature baby donkey!!! His name is Jaspar, and he is five months old. I've never owned an equine before, although I do have goats, sheep, dogs, cats, pigs, etc . . .
I know that you can't ride Mini donkeys, but, I am planning on driving him when he's older!!!

MY DUCKLINGS ARE DUE TO HATCH WHEN I'M GONE!!!
My female mallard is sitting on her nest, which has about 10 eggs or so. She started incubating about the first couple days of June, so the eggs will hatch around the end week of June. This is unfortunate ,though because me and my family are...
Sorry this happened! This has never happened to me before, but all that I can say is that it looks like an infection. If you put some disinfectant on it it might get better. Or, something that has helped with me in the past is warm chamomile tea, if you have any, and just squirt it in her eye...
We have six Pygmy goats, and they are the best creatures ever! They are loving and affectionate! We originally got them to eat some weeds out of our sandbox, which worked a little . . . I guess. Pygmys are small goats. Less than 60 pounds, usually. They are picky eaters. (at least mine are)...
We got two bottle sheep almost a week ago, and we've never had sheep before. Their names are Pomp and Stan. They've been doing great on the bottle and are very healthy! We have goats, a pig, dogs and cats, so I know how to take care of them. The only thing I don't know, is, #1: How to wean them...
I put her outside last night, and she seems to be doing fine this morning! She ate and drank, and is walking around with her buddies!! I'm happy she made it! I was so worried!!! Let's hope it doesn't happen again. XD
Thanks for the link. :)
She is still doing the same. :| I put some fresh hay in her box and gave her a bowl of fresh water. She seemed to enjoy the hay! She also drank the water a little. I gave her a couple pieces of bread. She enjoyed that too! my mom wants me to put her back in the coop...
Thanks for all the advice! I don't have any electrolytes handy right now, but could I substitute it for some salt and/or sugar? I hope she makes it too.
I found my duck frozen to the ground today. It is about -10 degrees here in Minnesota. We brought her inside and let her warm up in the tub with some luke-warm water. Then we put her in a bucket with some hay and a little bowl of water. I went to check on her a little while ago, and she has...
In the winter, all of our eggs freeze either during the night, or in the morning. Either way, we bring them inside and eat them. They don't taste a bit different. We've never purposefully froze them for storage, though.
"Hi, Sandy----" Nigel stopped and looked at Scarlet. Something about her didn't seem quite right . . . . No matter. "Who's this, Sandy?" He said referring to Scarlet. Then he turned to Reid. "Hey, buddy!"
(Hi guys! So glad to be back. I feel SUPER bad I haven't written for like a month, but with school starting and all, I just haven't found time. Anyway, excuses, excuses!)
Nigel woke up the next morning. He looked outside at the morning. A beautiful one it was too. Something was bugging him in...
