Call yourself a Donkey rescue centre and register as a charity. Very profitable from what I’m told.

You don’t even need to be a charity. Hillside Animal Sanctuary in Norfolk is a limited company without charitable status.

OK, we’ve a donkey (called Hazel.rarely and a lot of other worse things mostly) and she runs all the time with our incalvers. All I can say is we’re CHeCs accredited 10 for bTB but that could change on the next test. She’s incredibly protective of her ‘herd’ and if we get a really stubborn animal to halter break, she obliges. Shes broken up one or two bull fights when introducing yearling bulls one to the other (usually coz one has been out showing) - they quickly realise she means business and stand quivering together !

She’s pretty feral, though and not the easiest to catch. Tolerates - just - my dogs but woe betide anyone else’s that invade ‘her’ territory so I wouldn’t be at all surprised if badgers got short shrift. She goes in the hydraulic lift crate to be trimmed by our cattle foot trimmer and goes in willingly and stands no trouble - a complete bitch if my farrier tries it ‘conventionally’ though! I’m sure the DS would be horrified but she’s in amazing nick, well wormed and foot trimmed, has a few favourite cows she scritches with and they lick her in return and overall, she really is no trouble - had her about five years now, on same diet as cattle, uses the self locking yokes no sweat and does look very healthy !

Hazel back in June with a couple of in calf recips. Bit fat but she has lost a bit recently.

From the photo,she looks to have a donkey head on a cattle body.

Rumour has it @roscoe erf has got a dual purpose job - runs with his cows at night and does a few other jobs during the day....
