John Donkey Muddy Breakfast

Edwin Margulies

John Donkey Muddy Breakfast

Cowgirl’s not the only beast at the ranch who rolls in mud after it rains. Four of our John Donkeys greeted me at breakfast time with mud caked all over them. They rubbed up against me jostling for the food bucket and again - mud all over.

Notice how Jules, the dark one, escorts me to the feed buckets. He has a tendency to dominate the others, kicking up at them and hogging the food. That’s why we try to spread out the food - so they don’t fight over it so much.

At the end of the video you can hear Cowgirl the mare nickering because she’s getting anxious to be fed. Coming right up girl - don’t worry we haven’t forgotten you!
