"Donkeys are often considered a low-maintenance farm animal, but many donkey owners will find that they need to adjust their feeding program."
"Donkeys need a balanced diet of forage including straw, grass and hay. They can also eat a variety of fruits and vegetables as treats."
"Donkeys can live mainly off of grass, shrubs and other plants found in the desert or wherever they call home."
"Donkeys in captivity, like horses, need a diet of forage like hay and grass but unlike horses, donkeys also need straw."
"Donkeys do not need to be fed regular grain if they are given enough straw along with grass or hay to maintain their normal diet."
