My donkey, Jack is getting super fat. Should I stop feeding him his corn? My dad gives him corn every three days. (mixes oats with it every 6 days) And he's got hay available all day for him. He doesn't get much exercise... when it warms up he will be going to his new home, which has a pasture for him.
