question about donkey

[areias]

Can you perhaps post pictures or explain it a little more? Are they discolored? Can you see skin? Where are they? What do they look like?

his fur is short where the pink spot is:

its on both sides of him. you know how a donkey looks in the summer with short fur? and in the winter they are furry? well those two spots are short like in the summer, and i am wondering if its flease or something.

can you not make it pink please?? That would help more.

I wouldnt be worried about it, unless you can see his skin, my horses get that all the time, it just takes more time to grow back.

Hmmm..it's probably just his coat growing in funny. It should be fine, as long as the skin/fur isn't discolored or swollen. Someone might have even shaved it for whatever reason, or rubbing against something, or whatever.

Have you wormed him? I would do that soon, I really doubt that its bot eggs but you should worm him anyways. Make sure you get something that kills bot eggs, they're quite formidable in the fall (at least with my horse). You can pick some wormer up at the feed store for about $10.

well you can't see it in the photo because thats when he had his summer coat and it wasn't on there.

EDIT** i will have to ask my dad to worm him. we haven't yet.

O, ok. Well if you havent wormed him in the last couple months, I would do that.

ok. he is really smart. when he stay in the barn he poops in one pile right next to the sliding door. lol

Yea, I used to help clean barns at my neighbors, and ride his race horses and Maddy the mom to almost all the horses, always pooped in one corner, and she taught all her babies to go in one corner too. She also never ever peed outside, becasue racetrack horses are trained not to pee outside, ( on the race track) so she never peed in the pasture either
