The Donkey
Breeder's Handbook
| |
We had
this book especially written by the author of the well known YOUR
DONKEY. Ruth Harris is one of Australia's leading donkey breeders
and certainly well experienced in all aspects of their care and management.
Her Keysoe Farm was founded in 1969 and Ruth spent her whole childhood
with the donkeys. She now runs the farm and breeds, trains and shows
donkeys. Each foal born is the product of a carefully selected and
planned mating, monitored and cared for from conception onwards. As
a result, Ruth has a wealth of knowledge and experience which she
draws on to share with her readers in this much needed book.
The
book is illustrated with many photos and diagrams and the chapters
include: Setting Up As a Breeder, Breeding,The In-Foal Jenny, Foaling,
Care of Jenny and Foal, Birth to Weaning, General Care of Breeding
Donkeys.
Appendices
include: Causes of Infertility, Genetics, Systems of Breeding, Bottle
Feeding a Foal, Birthing Problems (with diagrams).
The
book is simple and easy to read and we think you will find it easy
to understand and follow. We have felt for many years that something
like this was needed so that the breeder could have all of this
information in one place, and we are offering it to you now. We
are also taking the utmost care to offer it to you at a very reasonable
price, so that you may have this information easily and inexpensively
at hand. Paperbound, illustrated.

Imprint
Training of the Newborn Foal
| |
The
expert author of this book is a well known and respected figure in
the mule world. This book is written for horses and mules, and is
also perfect for donkeys. If you give your foal this start in life,
all the things mentioned in the training books will be a snap! It
covers the scientific and systematic handling of a newborn in order
to accustom it to the handling it will get in later life--and IT WORKS!
In the future, "Imprint Trained" will sell that colt for
you! As Dr. Miller Says. ALL MULES SHOULD BE IMPRINT TRAINED--AND
WE AGREE! Paper, 143 PP, photos.
