Mossy Oak Miniature Donkey Farm

Our Foals of 2005

All our babies are handled from the moment they are born (we haven't missed a birth yet) and many times daily thereafter. We pick them up and carry them around, tap their hooves, put our fingers in their mouths and ears and rub them all over their bodies. Our foals learn to trust people completely as they associate us with comfort and security. It always does my heart good when the babies come running up for loves every time I walk into their pasture.
