The Orchard posted the good news, and put out the call for some help on their Facebook Page:

"A little surprise we have been SO excited to share! The Conant’s family grew again! We have two adorable donkeys- Mom & Baby."

These donkeys are SO adorable and fit right in with the crazy Conant fam! We are not only an apple farm now, but a little animal farm as well for all families to enjoy."

So far, people have used the mom's name, Dolly, as a jump-off point for dozens of Dolly Parton-related/Female Country Music Artist's names from Jolene, to Loretta Lynn, to Reba!

Some have suggested names that rhyme with Dolly's name, like Molly. Others like the alliteration of names that start with "D" like Dolly and Daisy, or Dolly and Delilah, or even Dumplin'!
