Country Music Miniature Donkeys - <%Response.Write sNewsletterTitle%>
Livestock For Small Acreage Land Owners
By Rhetta McAlister
Ranching has
changed dramatically, throughout the country, in the past ten years. Many
factors have influenced this, primarily the development value of land, the
flight from urban areas, and the increasing popularity of second, or weekend
country homes on small acreage. The national real estate market has been
dominated by the strong demand for small acreage properties.
People are searching for animals to enjoy and successfully raise on a few acres.
Miniature Donkeys are an excellent choice. They do well on small acreage and
they do not require special fencing.
Miniature Donkeys are a pre-Jesus, purebred breed, originating from the
Mediterranean area. They are small (30" - 36" at the shoulders), quiet,
affectionate, intelligent and delightfully enjoyable. Miniature Donkeys are
versatile pets that can be enjoyed in many ways. They are easier to train than
ponies, and willingly accept a child on their back. It is also very easy to
teach them to pull little buggies and carts and to carry packs for hiking and
camping. It is fun to use them in parades, school programs, church nativity
scenes, and to put chips and dips on their backpacks for parties. Miniature Donkeys are fantastic pets for the elderly, handicapped and small children.
(Some people call them "Grandchildren bait!")
There
is a very active market for Miniature Donkeys. Many people like to show animals
and there are many Miniature Donkeys shows throughout the U.S. as well as Canada, Europe,
and New Zealand. The Ft. Worth Livestock Show, The Dallas State Fair and The Houston
Livestock Show have two to three full days of Miniature Donkey classes. Miniature Donkeys are becoming popular with people all over the world. Many of
these people are coming to Texas to purchase quality Miniature Donkeys.
Miniature Donkeys require minimal care yearly vaccinations and quarterly
wormings. Their hoofs need to be occasionally filed, but no shoes are required.
They need a three-sided shed for protection from heat, rain and cold. They do
well in every climate and are healthy. hearty, easy keepers
Miniature Donkeys primarily eat
grass, they also browse on random plants and weeds. During a drought,
and in the winter, they need a supplement feed of coastal hay. Alfalfa
is not recommended, as it will cause these little donkeys to gain to
much weight. Miniature Donkeys are compatible with all breeds of
livestock horses, cows, exotics, etc.
From the moment the tiny, fluffy, appealing, long eared foal is born, its
mission is to give love and to thrive on affection. They are the most adorable,
affectionate creatures in the animal kingdom. Legend says that the dark stripe
that forms a cross down the back and across the shoulders, of every Miniature Donkey, is a sign that these little donkeys have been touched by the Hand of
God
