Salt

Toby savouring the salt lick; he’ll walk up to the stable midway through a warm afternoon for a small dose and then have a second helping in the evening, his rough tongue rasping at the block. This Himalayan salt mined from a mountain range in Pakistan is ideal for donkeys because it’s too hard for them to bite through – they can’t bite bits off which would give them a digestive overdose. They spent the day nibbling the short grass in half the paddock, will soon have to give them the whole area. A warm sunny cloudy day with a hazy sunset.
