When we first decided that miniature donkeys would work for our ranch, we had no idea of what was to come!! We had a small olive farm and everything was fenced.....why not. We knew that they would get along with the horses(after all Budweiser uses them as companions to their Clydesdales) they would get use to the dogs; the chickens won't bother them so our next decision was where to get these little critters.

We wanted the best pedigrees possible so we brought stock from Tennessee, Texas, S. Carolina and Nebraska. In that first year we added some from Canada. Good jacks were a must since that is 50% of your herd. With the help of many wonderful people we have gotten just what we wanted- an excellent herd of jennets and 3 exceptional jacks. The foals have been beautiful, straight legs, good mouths and friendly loving personalities. We love each and every one of them. It is so hard to sell one but it is all worth it as we talk to the new owners and see how much they love mini-donks.

Like I warn everyone who buys one, you will fall in love ...these are the most loving affectionate and funniest animals you will every have. Oh. and they are like potatoe chips , you can't stop at just one!!
