[QUOTE="redleghunter, post: 72346079, member: 348895"] You call into question Matt 21:1-7 as something the author just threw in there? Is the contention Jesus rode both the Jenny and colt and the other Gospel account only mentions one donkey? If so Matthew and Zechariah may be giving us a look at how the animals were cared for back then and weaning techniques which still apply today. For example, you never separate a colt from the Jenny (mother) during and shortly after w[COLOR=#660000]eaning, which can last 6-8 months. [/COLOR] [LIST] [*][COLOR=#660000]Weaning can be a very stressful time for Jenny and foal, and some owners advise gradual weaning over a period of up to 3 months rather than abrupt separation. [/COLOR] [*][COLOR=#660000]If the foal is weaned between 6 and 8 months, any noise or distress can be eliminated if only a fence separates the pair so the foal can still see and smell his mother.[/COLOR] [*][COLOR=#660000]Other breeders advise abrupt weaning; otherwise the dam will take longer for her milk supply to dry up.[/COLOR] [*][COLOR=#660000]Breeders suggest providing the weaned foal with an assortment of toys such as old tyres painted different colours, a soccer ball to push around, large drums to negotiate, hessian bags filled with tin cans and ice cream containers that foals love to carry around.

Then again living in Texas and having sons in the FFA I already knew this. [/QUOTE]
