Question Hoarse donkey?? =)
Yes, I have a hoarse donkey...LOL I adopted a standard donkey a few days ago. She has gone hoarse now as she was separated from her foal (the foal was a year old). She was bred back and is expecting in about 8 weeks.

Is there anything I can do to help her poor throat?? She is in with the goats, so she's not alone. I may have to invest in a buddy for her...

LOL
If my dear donk went hoarse, I might just let it be! But ours is LOUD when he feels he being done wrong by his human servants.
There are some herbal products marketed for sore horsey throats. Anything you find for horses would be fine for the donk.

Your donkey will be just fine in a couple days. Quite honestly, by the time you hunt down a product to treat a hoarse donkey, you're donkey will likely have her voice back.
