Click MDR sticker to see Tina's complete pedigree!

We purchased Tina after The Great American Miniature Donkey Sale on July 26th, 2008. She is very well balanced for such a small jennet. Tina should have been named Buttons and Bows as she has two identical bows on each of her sides right in front of her hips. She is such a tiny thing that we will wait until she is almost four years old to bred her for the first time. Photos and videos taken on November 7th, 2009. Thank you to my new friend, Dena, for helping me take these wonderful photos of tiny Tina! We received a comment from someone asking if Tina had an overbite because of the way she is holding her mouth in some of her photos. Tina has a dead on perfectly even bite. She was in season the day we took these photos and videos and she was just holding her mouth funny part of the time. She was not in the mood to have her photos taken and only wanted the treats we were holding. Again let me state that her bite is perfectly even as all of our breeding jennets are!!! If any of our donkeys have an unexceptable bite they are always sold as pets and never used for breeding.

Tina is now with our junior herd sire, Black 'n' Blue (aka Bruise. We last observed her in season on 4/25/10.

Sired by our own red herd sire, Firefly, and out of a spotted grand daughter of Gladybrooke Skp, this nice little lady is related to several of our favorite jennets already in our herd that are known superior producers. We purchased Fire Jumper at the same time we purchased Cotton Candy because they were already best friends and we didn't want them to be alone for the long and stressful trip from New Hampshire. We were delighted to have her! Firejumper is now bff with Goochie Goo. Like most little girls...sometimes they change best friends.

Willow will turn three years of age on February 1st in just a few weeks. We don't think she is going to grow any taller. She will be ready to be bred for her first time as soon as the weather is warm again unless you are from a warm climate and then she could be bred now.

Every donkey in her first three generations is under 32 inches tall. She is up to date on vaccinations including Eastern/Western Encephalitis, Tetanus, Rhino, Influenza and West Nile.

We acquired Joy from one of our friends that owns her sire. She could not retain Joy as she only has one herd sire. We swapped another one of our donkeys for her. Joy has been handled since birth and is super friendly. She has been started on trail obstacles as you can see by the video of her performing on YouTube with her handler, Katie! She is up to date on hoof trims, de-worming and vaccinations including East/West Enceph, Tetanus, Rhino, and Influenza. She has been microchipped to comply with the new Miniature Donkey Registry rules for 2010. She is also double registered in the Miniature Donkey Registry and The American Council of Spotted Asses Registry as well. Joy is just as sweet and friendly as she can be.

Hailey is registered as 33 nches tall but we measure her to be 33¾ inches. She was vet tested by exterior ultra sound to be open but she has not come in 'season' since we have had her so we think we had her ultrasounded too soon and that she is really in foal for a summer 2010 baby. Her previous owner had her with her jack up until 6/16/09. Her pedigree is filled with reds including LN Redsonnehi, Winchester, and Jennie Sam of Bell E Acres. She is built like a tank with a nice round rear, heavy boned and very correct legs. She is very sweet, easy to catch and easy to handle. She is up to date on hoof trimming, vaccinations including West Nile, and worming. She has a negative coggins report dated 6/18/09. The photos and videos above were taken on August 4th, 2009, straight out of the pasture. She has not been body clipped. Only her mane and bridle path were trimmed. I can only imagine how beautiful this jennet would be if she were body clipped. We may offer her for sale again after we determine if she is already in foal or not.

Update!! Hailey was vet checked on 10/20/09 by exterior ultrasound to be approxiamately 5 months in foal!

Sissy is the dam of the following three foals:

2) Wit's End Shoeshine Boy8/25/07, black jack.
3) Geisha Girl, 4/20/09, very dark brown jennet.

We loved Meggie Mae so well that we also purchased her half sister, Sissy. The only reason we are now offering Sissy for sale is because we have her duplicate bloodlines already in our herd. They don't come any sweeter or laid-back than Sissy. She is up to date on all vaccinations including West Nile. She has a negative coggoins report dated 9/01/09. Sissy is microchipped to comply with the new Miniature Donkey Registry rules. She has been hand bred to Windcrest Firefly for a foal due on September 6th, 2010. She is still with Firefly now and we have not observed her back in season so we feel sure she is in foal. Since Sissy's dam is red so we feel that Sissy has a very good chance of producing a red foal from this pairing.

We let the breeder's use their farm name as a prefix because we didn't think Half Ass Acres Have Faith would sound very nice!

She is up to date on hoof trims, worming and vaccinations. She has a gorgeous stocky black jack by her side born on July 2nd, 2009. He has a black belly and is even black inside his ears. He has a white smudge on his nose. Whoopsie will be sold with her jack on her side now but will be sold separately when the foal is weaned. Photos and videos were taken on July 14th, 2009.

Champ is one special little black jack!! He is super heavy boned and black as night except for a smudge on the top of his nose. The inside of his ears and his belly is totally black. The photos and videos above do not do him justice. I failed to get a photo of his super wide chest showing his very correct straight legs. His papers have not been sent in so I would be glad to register him with your farm name as a prefix. You should come and see this little guy in person. You will be impressed and might think as much of him as Champ does himself! Champ has a negative coggins report dated 9/01/09.

Charm was bred and raised here at Half Ass Acres and sold when she was a youngster. Her previous owners have gotten out of the donkey business so Charm and her stablemates came back here to live. Charm measures slightly less than 34" tall. She has a dark brown jack foal on her side that was born on May 24th of this year and will be ready to wean soon. You can purchase Charm and her foal together or just Charm and we will keep her until her foal is weaned at no charge. Free delivery within 50 miles. Charm has had two foals in her lifetime.

We LOVE this little gray, brown, rose-dun, or whatever color you may think Gussy is to you. All we know is it is very different color and she is as cute as it gets! She is truly a people pleaser and everyone falls in love with her as soon as they lay eyes on her.

The minute she sees us coming she is running over to greet us. She appears to be all “gussied up” in her grayish, brownish, rose-dun, coat of many hues, and saying “come on let’s go.” She is eager to play, run, follow, and just have her nose in to everything going on in her little donkey world. “Miss Happy” should be her middle name as she enjoys everything and everyone. Big smiles appear on faces when they meet Gussy Up…..even Gussy seems to smile.

We purchased Gussy’s mother, Emerald Ridge Piper, sight unseen, about a year ago. When we went to pick Piper up we could not believe our eyes. We were already in love with this little gray donkey that was going back to our farm. She was everything we had wanted in a little gray 'no light points' jennet. She sure gave us the cutest little “grayish, rose-dun” jennet in the world. We could not be more pleased with Piper and her little girl, Gussy.

Feel free to drop by for a visit with Gussy and take a souvenir smile home with you. Sorry, but for now, Gussy is not for sale. We have fallen in love! Gussy is bff with Rocket.

In keeping with the Patriotic week of 9/11 we wanted to name this beautiful little jennet in remembrance of that day in history. May we never forget what happened the day that has forever changed our country and may "God continue to bless America."

Can you believe we missed Rocket's birth? Yes, we left for only a few minutes to run get dinner just two miles down the road and our phone started ringing the minute we sat down to eat. The Mare Stare family was doing their usual outstanding job of notifying us that we had a jennet in labor. I rushed out of the restaurant, leaving Joe behind, and was home in 3 minutes. This outstanding little red jennet, Rocket, was on the stall floor greeting me and letting me know she was just fine and perfect in every way.

After quickly cleaning the stall I ran back to the restaurant to pick up Joe and we both came back to enjoy the beauty of Rocket, our newly born little girl.

Bridget has always been a jennet we loved and we even owned her at one time when she, herself, was a tiny little girl. When we recently had the opportunity to purchase her again we did and are so happy to have her back with us at our farm. Rocket is the same beautiful color as Bridget and is the "spitting image" of her mother. You see she, too, is perfect in every way. She is stocky, perfect bite, straight legs, fantastic head, and that friendly personality that we all like to experience in our donkeys.

Rocket lights up our eyes as we admire her beauty, lights up our hearts with her endearing personality, and lights up our farm as she mingles with the other donkeys that are quickly becoming her friends. Our patriotic little girl will wave true in our hearts and at our farm forever!! (that's right, she is 'Not For Sale' at this time!). Rocket is bff with Gussy Up.

A nice drafty black jennet that commands your attention. She is a great granddaughter of Rainbow's Blizzard. Co-Co is eager to please and loves to be right with you in the pasture. She is very social with the other jennets and has many pasture buddies. We trimmed Co-Co's hooves and carefully measured her on concrete and she measured 33¾" tall. She has a gorgeous head, perfect bite, and very correct legs. Photos & video of Co-Co above taken on August 25th, 2007, after Co-Co was bathed and body clipped.

Co-Co is the dam of the following four foals:

1) Wit's End Hotty Chocolate, 10/17/04, black jennet;
2) Wit's End Behind the 8-Ball, 4/17/06, black jack;
3) Wit's End Shadow Boxer 9/03/07, true black jack.
4) HHAA Pascoe, gray-roan w/star gelding prospect born on Easter Sunday 4/12/09.

Exciting News!! Moxie has been sent to Kathy Loudamy at K&K Ranch in Texas for conditioning, training, and showing! We have confidence in Kathy's ability to make Moxie a fine little show donkey! Update...Moxie is home from training and we were so pleased with the results that we sent another one of our babies home with Kathy. Our little Moxie is a perfect lady now..trained to trot practically in place beside you and well started in trail obstacles. We are just thrilled with her. We highly recommend Kathy Loudamy for training your next little champion!!

Photos above were taken on November 1st, 2008, straight out of the pasture for her three year old registration update. She measured 31" tall and we think she is finished growing!

Moxie is the dam of one foal:

We just purchased this little girl at the Great American Donkey Sale in August of 2009. She will turn three years old at the end of this month but we will wait for the weather to cool off before we bred her. We are trying to decide whether to cross her with Pepper or Firefly. This will be Nerissa's first foal. Thank you to Double B Farm for offering this tiny girl at the sale and giving us an opportunity to purchase her and thank you to Ed and Angela Preston for pointing her out to us and telling us we needed her or she would have slipped through our fingers.

Eight Belles was named after the gray filly that ran to her death in the Kentucky Derby. She had lots of heart and so does this little girl. Belles is square and straight and has beautiful legs on her with lots of width and bone. Her dam has produced multiple champions.

We had no intentions of selling this adorable girl but when my great friend, Sandy Dorris, decided to have donkeys again we let her have Eight Belles since she is sired by Wit's End's herd sire that they owned for years and years When Sandy owns a donkey I feel like it is still my donkey so it doesn't feel like I have sold her at all.

Calamity is very tiny but also very correct! She is one of our sweetest jennets.

Calamity is the dam of the following foals:

1) Windcrest Calliope, 5/13/01, dark brown jennet;
2) HHAA Sweet As MO-lasses, 5/04/03, brown gelding;
3) HHAA How Big a Boy 'R Ya', 9/18/05, brown gelding.

Calamity was tested negative for pregnancy by an exterior ultrasound machine vet test on 11/18/08. Calamity is with our dark red herd sire, Firefly, now but we do not think she is in foal since she has not settled in foal since 2005. The last time we observed her in season was 3/20/09. Therefore we are selling her as a barren jennet. They don't come any sweeter and easier to handle than this jennet. She is up to date on all vaccinations (including West Nile), hoof trims and de-worming.

Shazam has an extremely wide chest and rear, has a gorgeous head, and a beautiful set of legs. This great little donkey was trained and shown by Kathy Loudamy at K&K Ranch. Shazam hated to be body clipped so her show careeer ended early. The two times she was shown by Kathy she placed third in NMDA Foals at Halter class at the 2005 Dallas State Fair out of a class of fourteen and was again 3rd in a huge foal class at the 2006 Houston Livestock Show. Shazam was bred and raised by Frank and Mary Williams. She has been bred to our dark spotted herd sire, Napoleon. Her first foal should be due July 19th, 2009. The photos above were taken of Shazam straight out of the pasture on October 29th, 2008.

The delicate color of champagne and the sweetness of homemade jam all wrapped up in this precious sorrel spotted jennet. She is simply beautiful displaying her blanket of soft pink as she makes herself so available to us as we enter her paddock. She runs to greet us every time she see us and rubs against us showing how much she enjoys being with people. We have to be very careful when we leave her paddock as she would walk right on out with us. Jammy is truly a people/lap donkey.

Here we are with every kind of technology in our home and barn to help us watch for our jennets when they go in to labor. But this little one picked a very unusual time to be born….6:00 p.m. and we were not on watch at that time. We had just finished having a 2 day donkey clinic at our farm and were worn out! Imagine our surprise when we went to check the foaling monitor and found this beautiful spotted jennet still wet and just barely up on her feet for the first time. A real “toast” is due to Windcrest Tangerine Twist and Ass-pirin Acres Spectacular for a job well done with their little girl. There is not a sweeter jennet in the world than her dam, Tangerine, and Jammy has certainly inherited tons of sweetness from her mom….and wants to share it all! Jammie has a perfect bite and dark eyeliner completely around both eyes.A special 'thank you' to Jeffrey Roberts for thinking of the perfect name for this little girl! Jammy is up to date on all vaccinations, hoof trimming, and de-worming. She has a negative coggins dated 2/9/09.

Facny's breeders had first refusal rights so she is going back home!

Daphne was checked NOT in foal by an exterior ultrasound at UT vet school in Knoxville on 11/19/07. We have owned her for over six months and her previous owner had her for two years. Since she has never had a foal according to her breeder we are now offering Daphne as a barren jennet. You could not ask for a sweeter jennet. Easy to catch and work with and up to date on all vaccinations. She would make a fantastic driving donkey, companion or just a wonderful pet. She will have a current negative coggins and a health certificate if sold out of state.

Surprise, surprise...after Daphne was sold as a barren jennet she foaled on

This is a very, very extra special little girl for more reasons than one! Hula is a true black who tried so hard to be a no light points jennet and she almost made it except for one tiny smudge on the bridge of her nose and tiny little eye rings...everything else is totally black...even the inside of her ears and her belly. Hula Hoop was sent for training to Kathy Loudamy's K&K Ranch in Texas!

Update! First time and only time shown....Hula Hoop shown by Kathy Loudamy places 5th out of 14 entries in Miniature Donkey Yearlings at Halter class at the Texas A&M Horseman's Association Donkey & Mule Show November 18th, 2006. We are very proud! Thank you, Kathy!!

If you want Black, great conformation and all tied up in a sweet, easy to handle disposition, here she is. X-Phile has a pedigree that is tops going all the way back to original imports with only two untraceable ancestors, and she’s such a joy to be around. She’s a half sister to MJB Jack of Spades, Merlin, a 30½" black jack. X-Phile sold for $5,000 in the 2004 Great American Miniature Donkey Sale in Ohio. Her babies are gorgeous - whoever gets X-Phile will be getting a winner!!! X-Phile has a negative coggins report dated July 23rd, 2007.

Red Ray is named after the most remarkable woman that has ever entered my life...my Mother! Her name was Imagene Ray but all her friends called her Red Ray. This very special jennet is named "Ima Red Ray" in honor of my red-headed Mother! Don't worry...my Mother would be very flattered! I can hear her laughing now...when she laughed it sounded like little bells ringing. Red Ray was bred to our new spotted herd sire, Napoleon, expecting a July 2007 foal. This will be her first foal.

We purchased this little beauty from Big Woods Farm. She was shown for the first time by Leana Lefrapper (for Big Woods Farm) at the 2004 ADMS Nationals Cheers For Ears Show and won! She was shown three other times that year and was 2nd in miniature halter jennets at the NMDA Bedford County Fair, 2nd in miniature halter jennets at the Virginia State Fair Mule & Donkey Show, and 2nd in miniature halter jennets at the Dixie Classic Mule & Donkey Show. Image is bred to Big Woods Burr Foxx, a gorgeous dark red sorrel that is already wining big in the show ring! Update! Image was tested for pregnancy through an estrone sulfate blood test and she was positive!

Update! 12/12/06..we woke up to quite a surprise...Image had her foal in the maternity ward early this morning. A tiny very dark brown jennet with a gorgeous tiny head. She is perfect in every way!

The secret is out....National Champion Circle C Motown's Secret has been gelded and this is his last foal!! His legacy will live on with this nice heavy-boned little girl! Outie is just as sweet and friendly as she can be. She is registered as black with a cross but I believe she is really a very dark brown or black/brown although her coat is very sun-burned. She is up to date on vaccinations, hoof trims and de-worming. She has a negative coggins report dated June 8th, 2007. We forgot to measure her the day we took these photos but I will measure her again the next time I have her at the barn. I expect her to mature somewhere between 33" to 34" tall. She has a perfect bite and she travels very straight with correct legs. It was too dang hot to ask my husband to stay out any longer in the hot sun to take vidoes today. All the above photos were taken on June 26th, '07. I can promise you that you will be very pleased with the quality of Secret's Out.

Talk about making temperatures RISE! This little girl can certainly do that to you. She definitely has that "look at me attitude" as she carries her head high and clips around the Spring grass smelling all the trees and blooming flowers. (Well, not anymore as we are in a drought!) What a refreshing little one and just as sweet as they come.

Spring wears her "genes" very well and it is easy to see those great bloodlines from The Fireman and 'My World'. No doubt she will be a fantastic addition to some lucky family as a show girl, brood jennet or just to love on all day long. She is all about melting your heart with those big eyes, her upright head, straight legs, and a personality that makes YOU feel like the special one. We purchased this little girl in a package deal from Wit's End Farm while on her mother's side. This little girl is definitely a show prospect with outstanding conformation. She has a perfect bite, round rear, straight legs, very heavy boned and a wide, wide chest. Enjoy her in the showring until she is old enough to retire to your brood jennet pasture. Photos above were taken on August 26th, 2007. Thank you to Sandy Dorris for setting up Spring for her photo shoot! Great job, Sandy!

Spring has a negative coggins report dated June 8th, 2007, and she has been vaccinated with her first set of vaccinations plus her boosters of Eastern/Western/Tetanus/Rhino/Influenza.

Jetta foaled a tiny dark red jack at 1:51pm...she went into labor while we were at the barn and I did not have time to post a note on our website...sorry to all that missed the birth. The baby measured 20¼" tall with ears almost as tall as he is! Thank you for all the calls we received from people watching our jennet. We appreciate you all!

Fizz basically spit herself out with this sweet girl only she is even better! She is stocky as can be, straight legs, perfect bite. Her beautiful pink color is outstanding and shows the marking of the cross nicely across and down her back. Cimmaron, the sire, has left his mark on Belle with his fantastic bloodline. These girls are so beautiful in their pink attire and will add so much color to your herd of donkeys. If they are not sold by the time Belle is weaned they will be priced separately.

She has the best set of legs you could ever hope for...very straight..wide in-between...and heavy boned. Her spot pattern is striking and just flawless! A big thank you goes out to Butch & Sarah Nowlin at Moe Moe Acres for allowing Heaven's mom to come and live at Half Ass Acres.

She is also a full sister to Half Ass Acres Splish Splash and a half sister to Half Ass Acres Hula Hoop.

Here is a photo of Flo Jo taken on 3-13-06. Do you think we can safely say she is in foal!! Might be twins in there! Check out the width between her front legs ~ what a chest - we should have named her Mae West!

Update! Flo has cloudy milk as of 3/29/06 @ 9am. She is now under the barn cam. As of 4:30pm 3/29/06 Flo has white milk! Baby should be arriving within 24 hours!

Exciting News!! Dory has been sent to Kathy Loudamy at K&K Ranch in Texas for conditioning, training, and showing! We were so pleased with the first two foals we sent to Kathy for 110 days of training that we decided to send another baby home with her. We have confidence in Kathy's ability to make Dory a fine little show donkey too!

This little girl would have never been offered for sale if we were not building an expensive arena and we just simply needed the money! She is one of our very finest! She has been well started in green trail with three months of training by Kathy Loudamy.

Buffy has been pasture exposed to Ass-Pirin Acres Spectacular for an October 28th, 2007 foal. She will be sold as exposed but not guaranteed. If she is not in foal we will refund $500 to the buyer. She is up to date on vaccinations, dewormings, and hoof trims. She will have a current negative coggins report and a health certificate if sold out of state. This jennet is easy to catch and handle and gets along with other donkeys and animals. She is an excellent mom and has had no foaling problems since we have owned her or to our knowledge. She would not be offered for sale if we were not building an expensive arena! Our need is your gain. Buffy produced the prettiest spotted jennet you have ever seen in March 2006!

Tinkie is so beautiful that it is a shame she is barren but she has been invaluable as a baby-sitter, show-donkey, and concubine jennet. She has been green-broke to  drive. Tinkie is sometimes a pasture buddy for one of our herd sires or she is a super baby sitter when we wean the foals. She is up to date on vaccinations, dewormings, and hoof trims. She will have a current negative coggins report when sold and a health certificate if sold out of state. We have kept so many or our foals these past two years that we just simply need the room.

Passion is the best looking weanling jennet I have ever laid my eyes upon, bar none! I just can't find anything about her that I don't like. Not surprising when you check out her very impressive pedigree. She is stocky, very heavy-boned, with correct conformation. She travels straight and true and you can drive a mack truck through her front end. She has a beautiful huge round rear end. Her bite is perfect and to top it all off she is as sweet and friendly as she can be. Passion has a negative coggins report dated 1/17/06.

I let a very smart lady talk me out of this
fantastic jennet...she's the best I have ever seen!

Chiquita is very beautiful and she knows it!  She was added to our brood jennet band in 2003 when Chiquita turned three and a half years of age.   She is a half sister to one of our other favorite brood jennets from the past, Windcrest Tulip, so we are expecting Chiquita to follow in her sister's hoofprints. We measured Chiquita on concrete on 10/12/04..and she is a solid 34" tall.

Chiquita was bred to Short Spots Luigi for a September 2004 foal. Chiquita delivered her first foal, a healthy baby girl, Teenie Bopper, on 10/13/04 @ 10:40am.

Chiquita has been bred to our new black and white spotted herd sire, MGF Primero, look for her second baby due March 15th, 2006. Chiquita has a negative coggins report dated 1/17/06.

Gracie is very tiny and correct.... a rare combination. She has been bred to our 29½" brown herd sire, PGF Peppercorn Jack, for an April/May, 2003 foal. This will be her first foal.

Update...Gracie went into early labor during a horrible hail storm...click here for another view of the hail...click here for one more view. The baby was not in the correct position and had to be pulled. We lost the baby ... a tiny, precious, dark brown jennet ... but Gracie is doing fine.

We have rebred Gracie to PGF Peppercorn Jack for an October 2004 foal. This will be Gracie's second foal and first live birth.

Update! 9/10/04....Gracie had clear milk at 1:30am and white milk later at 9:30am and delivered a gorgeous girl at 2:15pm! Click here to see photos of Sis Boom Bah, aka Sister!! Thank you to all who prayed and helped us through this delivery!!

Gracie has been bred to PGF Peppercorn Jack for a March 2006 foal. This will be her third foal. Gracie has a negative coggins report dated 1/17/06.

Madison has no light points and has been bred to our spotted herd sire, Indy, for a Summer 2002 foal.  Madison has a gorgeous round rear end and those long banana ears!

Madison foaled a tiny spotted jack on 6/27/2002, Cloud Nine! This was her first foal.

Madison was allowed to rest through last year and has been bred to Short Spots Luigi for a late September 2004 foal. This will be her second foal.

Update! Madison started her bag the 1st week of August. She will be the next one to foal. Madison was put in a stall under the barn cam on August 28th. Her due date is September 25th but she has had a real nice 'bag' now for nearly a month. We expect her to foal a few weeks early this year.

Update! Madison foaled a 20½" brown jack with a big wide blaze on 8/31/04 @ 4:47am. Mad Hatter was born 25 days early and one day after the full moon. Visit our 'newborn' page for updated photos!

Clover has a very impressive show record. She was the Grand National Spotted Jennet for two years in a row and won numerous other awards during her show career. She was shown by Kirk and Terri McDonald of KiTerra Farm in Jeffersonville, Ohio. We have been unable to get Clover to settle in foal for over a year now so we are offering her for sale as a barren jennet. She would make an absolutely gorgeous driving donkey and with her past very impressive show record she would make someone a wonderful show donkey. She would also be a good baby sitter for young foals or a great companion donkey for a jack or any other donkey that needs a buddy.

Headed to New Mexico!

Shanay (American Indian for "beautiful eyes") was purchased for a future cross with our new and upcoming junior herd sire, Spec. I just could not resist Shanay as soon as I saw her. We have known her sire, Sampson, for several years and always admired his unique 'tyger' spot pattern and outstanding conformation. Sampson is an ACOSA Grand National Champion. Shanay is a full sister of Wee Ones Farm Geronomo. This little girl is about as sweet and laid-back as they come. She did not move a muscle for her haircut or photo session!

Bianca was shown at The 2003 Great Celebration Mule & Donkey Show in July against very tough competition. She placed 2nd in the NMDA Jennets to Halter 3 & Over class and placed 3rd at the ACOSA Nationals in Jennets to Halter 3 & Over Class the next day. This is the only time she has been shown. We have been unable to get Bianca to settle in foal. She does not appear to have any major problems and she has been flushed out by our vet but she still does not settle. For this reason we are offering her as a barren jennet. She would make an outstanding cart donkey. She is easy to handle and easy to catch in a small pasture. If she is in a big pasture and she sees you have a halter she sometimes is a little harder to catch. She is up to date on all vaccinations, worming, and hoof trimmings. She would also make a great companion for a horse or another donkey. She gets along with other donkeys and dogs. She would be a wonderful spotted show donkey!

Angel is the dam of Homer!!!!  She has not had a foal since she had Homer several years ago. Angel is a super friendly jennet..she just didn't want to have a thing to do with that baby...she wants to be the baby herself. We had to bottle feed Homer and we have not been able to get her in foal since then. She is in perfect health. We just want to find her a good pet home. She gets along with all animals and she is a very easy keeper. She is up to date on all vaccinations and has her negative coggins report.

Hoopla is one incredible jennet...her bite is perfect, her legs are perfect, her personality is perfect. She has a nice, round rear...she is also the sweetest most agreeable thing. She would make an outstanding show jennet. I am about to talk myself out of selling her! These are winter coat photos taken today (3/30/03). The difference in her coat color in these photos was due to the sun going in and out....her shiny dark coat takes your breath away in the summertime. Here is her headshot taken last summer...check out those long ears!!!!

She is sired by Sunset Acres Hoops, a small, stocky true black jack with no visible stripe, and she is a granddaughter of Circle C Black Russian! Her pedigree is very long and impressive.

"Issie" is an absolutely precious jennet with a big white star on her forehead. She measured 28½" on 6/08/2002 and she is going to stay tiny!  She is named in honor of Jim Enstein's thoroughbred race mare he owned long ago.  It's a good thing she isn't living up to her name as she is spoiled rotten and would be an ugly little thing!! Okay, I admit it..I am responsible...but how can you help not spoil a face like that???
