New donkey born at Little Jacks Farm and Garden Centre in Bottesford




A donkey was born last week at a family-run farm and garden centre and named in honour of the owner’s late aunt.

Jackie was born on March 27 at Little Jacks Farm and Garden Centre, Bottesford.

The name was chosen by Lee Roberts, son of the owners and the animal caretaker at the farm, to mark his late aunt’s birthday.

The baby donkey is the third born of Dolly and Dominic.

“People always have a really good reaction, they love seeing baby animals,” said Lee.

“Everyone loves it and it is a big draw to the farm, people always come in to see the new addition.”
