John has been finding teeth caps in the boys feed trough this week. So far 2 whole ones and a partial, I guess he swallowed the rest of that one. I don' t know how many teeth they lose as yearlings, but it's kinda fun to find them, almost like Easter egg hunting.........!!! I have a pile of weird and unusual items, from pulled teeth to sialolith cysts, to a tumor causing ingrown eye lash. I'll just add Wister's teeth to the pile......!!! LOL
When we have tours come out to see the donkeys one of the most asked questions is, how do you get them back in the pens at feeding time? Well, this is the view from my kitchen window most mornings. Getting them in the pens isn't a problem, except they usually have definite ideas about who should go in first. Almost all of them want to be first, well except for Daisy. John calls her Blondie, she usually is one of the last ones in because she seems to forget from one feeding to the next where her pen is. What's funny is, if you pop her on the butt, or yell at her, she immediately remembers where the pen is.......!!! But then she pouts and usually won't even take her treat. LOL
