2 month old mini jenny

[LauraPetty]

On Saturday I was sold a 2 month old Jenny she is weaned but I was told she was older . The person claimed it was a jack. But we discovered after she was loaded it's a jenny. She was in awful living conditions... covered in mud which I brushed off. But im wondering what supplements she needs .I will be calling the vet this morning. Just want to give her the best life.she has all 8 teeth in the front and is eating coastal hay non stop.i can feel her backbone . I have owned older donkeys but nothing so small. Guess I'm just asking for advice on how to actually care for her until I can get her to the vet.

Welcome to BYC.
Are they supposed to be away from their mom at 2 months old?
I don't know a thing about donkeys.

No and I'm upset they did this she's not going back . Already consulted a vet .she's eating. Has just been wormed and I just got back from buying supplements for her

What did the vet say?

He said just keep feeding her grass and buy a blanket to keep her warm and dry

The event didn't say anything about giving it milk of some kind?

That’s so odd for the Vet not to mention Milk?
