PolygaDonkey


So....I left out one detail. Seems Peanut and Popcorn had been sharing the same man at their last Homestead. I guess you could call them "Sister Wives" or "Sister Donks". When they were delivered, we were given a little "p.s."....."Um....by the way...there's a chance that both of them are pregnant. They were in the same pasture with a Jack. Be on the lookout for a milk sac."

Being as I am scared to death to stick my head anywhere NEAR their back legs...I don't think I'm going to be seeing much on the milk sac thing. She told me I could have them get a pregnancy test next month...which we intend to do.

In a few months, a test might not even be necessary.



I would like to officially bet that Popcorn is preggo. She lookin' a little chunky monkey.

Donkey Hill could soon be Donkey Infested Hill. That's okay with us. We would be THRILLED to have a baby donkey or two. The bonus...I am a Doula. I'm gonna get the birthing tub and relaxation music ready :)

Gestation is about a year. Next Fall could be quite exciting.

For now, the Donkeys request that I ask you not to judge them. Until you walk a mile in their hooves...and are locked up in a field with a smokin' Jack...just leave it alone. Don't go there.
