Our "new" discount donkeys | Page 2 | Animals | Forums

Chickens are fun for sure, but there's something pretty cool about having a couple donkeys hanging around in the pasture.  Not that I'm that knowledgeable with donkeys,  but I'd recommend getting 2 if you can swing it.  Apparently they get rather lonely and love the companionship of other donkeys (and usually every other kind of livestock).  

So I figured I'd do a little update as far as what's been going on at "the farm" as of late.  There's been a lot, so I'll try to get to it quickly.  The donkeys are doing well, so well in fact, that we decided to get 2 mini-Sicilian donkeys from a breeder on Facebook.  They were advertised as an 8 year old female and her 8 week old female baby.  Cute as a button they are!  Well, once they were delivered, the owner told us that the 8 year old was likely pregnant and we'd be getting another mini this spring.  HOW exciting?  We figured they're small enough we won't notice another mouth to feed...

I'm attempting to attach pictures (which I can't remember how to do), so I apologize if things get jumbled.  Here's hopefully a picture of Belle and her baby (not yet named). 

I'm just going to throw in some other random farm pics just b/c I'm logged in and think they're sort of neat.
