Our two one year old miniature Jennies got into the chick starter below and consumed around 15 lbs total sometime between 8pm last night and 10am this morning. (We feel terrible and have now moved the feed barrels to a different location so this can never again happen.) I called several local vets and one answered the phone and agreed to meet me at his office to give me some medicine. He said that it was lucky it was a donkey and not a horse because a horse would be a bigger concern. He told me to give them each 3 CC's orally of Bute right now and 3 more CC's in the morning. He said that's really all we needed to do. I've read that we should take their water away so we did that. We've got them confined to a very small corral for now because they were eating their straw bedding since we took away their hay. For how long do we limit their water intake and how much water do we give them for now? How long do we need to keep them away from straw bedding? They are showing no obvious sings of distress other than one had some diarrhea, which is possibly a good sign that it's moving through them?? Should we call another vet when they open tomorrow morning?
