They said to expect about one month of the shed-out fully summer coat and then the winter coat would begin growing in.<BR/><BR/>Rafer Johnson is doing exactly as they described. He is nearly slick now (the donkey slick, not like ah horse though!) and very handsome, but still has a fairly furry belly. Even that is coming out though, so I expect he will get a bit slicker before it starts growing back.billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-70797102769350474152008-07-15T08:29:00.000-06:002008-07-15T08:29:00.000-06:00Lyle is a cutie!Lyle is a cutie!CindyDiannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13670606436554430600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-88345008966667020672008-07-15T07:05:00.000-06:002008-07-15T07:05:00.000-06:00Billie, that is a juniper tree they're peeking beh...Billie, that is a juniper tree they're peeking behind. I can't wait for Redford to get over there either. You are going to have SO much fun.<BR/><BR/>I'm still trying to figure out the shedding thing, Pony Girl. When I groom the burros now, I'm combing out a lot of the soft, furry undercoat, but they're still not letting go of much of their long top coats. I'm thinking they're keeping is as some sort of bug shield.<BR/><BR/>Victoria, I could make a career out of hanging out and watching them. It's a wonder I ever get anything done. <BR/><BR/>And thanks everybody for the compliments on the pictures. The learning curve on the new camera is going to be pretty steep but it sure is fun in the meantime.the7msnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01082802012105875164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-3986644164552624402008-07-15T06:32:00.000-06:002008-07-15T06:32:00.000-06:00LOL!
