I would agree with diet change. When donkeys get on fresh grass and haven't had it they always get loose poop. They will eventually adjust. Whenever my girls get a hold of something new they have the same issue.

My babies' eye is almost completely clear and heaked. Yeah!

Ended up with triple antibiotics and erythromycin. Doing well....there will be no permanent damage according to the Vet

Thanks. Looking in to that. Started Vetericyn Plus today which is also supposed to be good.

My 1yr old mini donkey has a slightly swollen and watery eye...bug...dust...injury...who knows. Using a sterile eye was and now an ophthalmic gel. Any other advice?

I have three young jennies currently. (Minies)They live luxuriously in our polebarn. 9x9 stall and access to 1/3 to a 1/2 acre to run and play in. Love balls, chunks of hose and hula hoops cut in half. I feed Purina Minature Hose and Pony once a day and a flake of hay per girl at night...

Definitely geld them both. Gelded boys are very managable and good pets.

Ya my donks always let me know when it's dinner time if I am late!

Adorable...I am partial but nothing cuter! Of course all baby herd members are cute.

The garden is a great use especially from the bottom of the pile that has decomposed....its all good!

Well, the danger has passed. We did not take in a friends goat after all. It has a good home , kids just dont want to care for it anymore. We will stick with our three mini donkeys for now!

Anyone have experience with mixing goats and mini donkeys? Or opinions?

Wish I lived closer....I would do it for you. The wild eyed ones take time, patience and lovin during the process

Thx

Perfect!

TxFarmGirl, Did you find a playmate for your baby?

The minerals may help but they are natural chewers....sorry. Door trim..stalls...trees. Also, a couple of three foot chunks of garden hose and a Jolly ball will help. Mine love to play with those.

I am lucky. My Uncle was a farrier so I learned years ago. Didn't think I would ever use those skills again....but here I am, trimming my own mini donkeys .

Updated my profile. In South Haven, Michigan by the way.
