Hi, ADMS has a cut off point at 36" for miniature donkeys. If over that they are considered small standard. Your friend might want to have a blood test done to check for pregnancy. I my self, have never bred a jennet that was two years old. But, I know plenty of breeders that do it. I think you...

Thanks for all of the wonderful compliments! I haven't had any foals born since November of 03, so I have really been enjoying them both.

I would be interested. You might also want to post this info on http://www.gotdonkeys.com or even the yahoo donkey group. There are several people that are members in that group who show. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DONKEY-MULE-PHOTOS/

I have never heard of that before either and when he called and asked I thought it was someone being silly. Janice, from the Yahoo Donkey group, sent me this link to a donkey dairy in France. This site that she sent me is pretty interesting. They sell the donkey's milk in a powdered form, as...

A man from Az. called me a while ago asking if I or if I knew anyone that sells donkey milk.... he said that his wife has colon cancer and a jennys milk has been proven to help fight cancer. Anyway, I told him that I would ask around and see if I could find someone that maybe sells it. I have...

I use the daily wormer on the donkeys that I have in stalls. I have never had any problems what so ever. I have been using it for 4-5 years now. The donkeys in the pasture get tube wormer once month.

I have had some immature jennets come into heat as early as 7 months old. The immature jennets are the worst about going to the fence and teasing the jack across the fence(mouthing, squating, winking the whole bit), more so then mature jennys. Immature jennets and jacks are like teenagers...very...

Hi...if your jennet is registered with ADMS(American Donkey & Mule Society), there cut off point for miniatures is 36". If they are taller then 36" they will be registered as small standards with ADMS. IMDR(International Miniature Donkey Registry) classifies miniatures 38" and under, IMDR...

How cute!!!! He is beautiful! ~ Jody Elliott

I like when it is time to clip that long hair off my donkeys.... it is like unwrapping a present! I have clipped 6 of my donkeys so far and have 3 more that I want to do... maybe this weekend! ~ Jody Elliott

I clip my miniature donkeys and I roach their manes. I have seen some breeders that leave like an inch of the mane and then clip a bridal path. I have also seen them leave a ball of hair on the tips of the donkey's ear. I personally like the mane roached and ears w/o the ball of hair. ~ Jody...

Thanks! I will pass this info to the friend of mine! ~ Jody Elliott

Thanks Minimule... I was on your site yesterday and you have some beautiful minature mules! Those babies make me want to get a mare of my own! But, I want to see if my jack would even breed a mare! ~ Jody Elliott

Thanks Sam ~ That is awful that you traded your Charley and then the mare didn't work out. I do hope you find another Charley to love!! ~ Jody Elliott

Hi Ginny! It is great to hear from you and nice to hear that Texas is doing great... well except for his up coming surgery! How is he looking? Has he filled out? Esther, his breeder, had called me yesterday and had asked if I have heard how he was doing. You'll have to send me some pictures of...

Thank you Corinne... I am glad to be on the list! Do you breed for miniature mules too? I have a friend that raises miniature horses and she wants to breed on of her mares to my jack, No Le' Asse'. He has NEVER bred a mare... so I am wondering how accepting he will be to breeding a mare. I guess...
