Question
hi i just bought a male minature donkey and was fixing to buy a minature horse but i was wondering how the donkey would act whether it was a male or female

Answer
It really depends on the gender of both animals. If your minature donkey is a stallion and you get a minature mare, he will obviously try and breed her. If the donkey is a gelding and you get a mare minature horse, then they should get along fine(after they establish a pecking order). If the minature donkey is a mare and you get a mare there will probably be more problems in the pecking order. By problems they may bite or kick each other to establish dominance even after the pecking order has been established. Any other questions I'd be glad to answer them
