Heading into Mother's Day weekend we share this heartwarming story about a little guy with 2 mom's. Such a beautiful way of nature taking care of itself.
Happy Mother's Day!!

Here's a summary of his story from Dalscone Farm in Scotland.
Seven days ago, farm owner Ben Best had been cleaning a pen in the morning when he noticed a foal standing between his two pregnant donkeys, Star and Mary.

Both donkeys were carrying at the same time, but they were not expected to deliver for several weeks.
He guessed one of them must have gone into labour overnight and was relieved it seemed to have gone smoothly.

He went to check on the foal and the mum but discovered another foal, stillborn, at the other side of the paddock.

He told BBC Radio Scotland's Drivetime programme: "I stopped still, thinking: 'Have they both foaled at the exact same time? Or has one had twins and one's not made it?' Both would be incredibly rare circumstances."

Both donkeys had, in fact, foaled at the exact same time.

The farm's vet confirmed the foal was stillborn due to a rare deformity but could not confirm which one was the mother of which foal.

Mr Best said; "That's where the confusion got deeper. Both mums thought the foal was theirs. Both were behaving exactly the same way, almost mirroring each other's behaviour."

He added: "The foal is grey so that gives us no indication from either mum.

"Because they foaled at the same time, both donkeys were looking round to see a foal that was fine and running about and that's what they found.

"They both bonded with the same foal, are feeding the same foal and care for the same foal."
