Ugg about sums it up.
First of all I want to say, know that part of your brain that shuts off when too many things seem out of place and you do something rash? Like bring home a donkey that still had a colt on her. . . and don't buy the colt?
I don't want to bad mouth this person, so I will let it go with there were several things that just did not seem right to me.
Now my mind was not thinking as it should have. I saw her colt there. I knew that must mean that he was still nursing, but it just didn't sink in until i got home and noticed her huge udder, which is quite full. Now I know how to milk, I have dairy goats, but I am wonder about drying her off. I have not bred horses so I have never had to deal with this issue.
I know some people go cold turkey. Others have other methods. I just don't want a case of mastitis on my hands.
Any suggestions?
