Saturday Extreme Dose of Cute: New Baby Donkey Alert!!


Say Hello to Daphne's Brand New Baby Boy

Talk about cute overload. Is this little guy adorable or what? I'll have more photos of him up hopefully soon—I'm headed back out to see them now. In the meantime, baby and mama Daphne are both doing fine, big sister Evie (who just had her first birthday two weeks ago) is demanding lots of extra hugs and pets, a very proud Donkey Doodle Daddy passed out congratulatory organic carrots to everyone, and I tucked a celebratory bottle of champagne in the fridge.

  1. 5 minutes with your blog sealed the deal I've been battling with for the pat few months: I want to move back to the country.

    One photo topped the scale - the quilts on the clothesline.

    I believe it's time for me to fly...

  5. Please tell me; do donkeys eat thistles? And might they prefer them to other weeds? If they do, and they are that cute, I'm getting one!

  10. Oh,he is so cute! God must make all baby creatures extra cute so the moms don't reject them. Think this theory applies to humans also.

  14. Guess his name will start with "F"????
    If so, it could be Fernando, or Ferdinand (my favorite kids book). But gosh, how about plain ol' Fred??????

  15. so darn cute....My grandchildren helped name eight baby buffalo that were born at Shelby Farms. They too were cute, but, we could not get too close. They voted on Buckley (a steak restaurant), Rufus (a local singer) and top name was Mike Byson....he was cute despite his name.....
    hug Cary for me....

  16. We will be breeding our mini donkey for the first time some time this next month. I am so looking forward to next year when we too will have the cuteness of a baby donkey running around the pastures!

December 2015 update: Hi! For some reason I can't figure out, Blogger hasn't been letting me leave comments on my own blog (!) for the last several months, so I've been unable to respond to your comments and questions. My apologies for any inconvenience! You're always welcome to email me: farmgirlfare AT gmail DOT com.

Hi! Thanks for visiting Farmgirl Fare and taking the time to write. While I'm not always able to reply to every comment, I receive and enjoy reading them all.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and I especially love hearing about your experiences with my recipes. Comments on older posts are always welcome!

Please note that I moderate comments, so if I'm away from the computer it may be a while before yours appears.

I try my best to answer all questions, though sometimes it takes me a few days. And sometimes, I'm sorry to say, they fall through the cracks, and for that I sincerely apologize.

I look forward to hearing from you and hope you enjoy your e-visits to our farm!
