  We raise minis, but have acquired a small standard jack foal. He has great color (black), good conformation, and a nice personality. I think he would be an excellent pet for somebody as a gelding, or add dark color to a herd. For sale in Dallas for $350. See pictures on the website: www.thegourmetglass.com

• Interested in learning more about and breeding our little jennet. -- Judy Gibson, 06:01:55 06/26/05 Sun (cache-dtc-ad07.proxy.aol.com/205.188.116.201)
  We have a cute-as-pie little jennet who will be a year old next month. She is approximately 36" at the withers, is dark brown (shedding coffee w/ cream color baby winter coat now)and white on her muzzle and inside her ears. Having never had experience with breeding donkeys would appreciate any help that you might be able to give in learning,
  1)How do I know when she comes into estrus?
  
  2)How old does she have to be before she is bred?
  
  3)Would breeding her to a mini horse be preferable to a small pony? Would like to use a smaller stallion (less than 35") to facilitate an easier delivery and produce a very small offspring.
  
  4) Is there anyone in the Mid-Missouri area who has a suitable stallion who would be willing to give it a try?
  
  Thanks for your assistance.
  
  Judy

  I have read quite a bit of information of Standard size Donkeys being used as protection for sheep. I was wondering if anyone could tell me of any bad habbits they have. I have trees on my property and would like to know if they will eat the bark off and kill the trees. I have had horses in the past and they have done this along with goats. Thanks, Lori

• biting and bratty Jack burro..HELP! -- Dave Baker, 09:22:17 06/27/02 Thu (ckvl-cs07-t109.citlink.net/170.215.123.114)
  Hello,
  
  My wife and recently bought a 15 month old standard sized brown Western Jack burro. He is an uncut male and is somewhat agressive. I have tried to get a local vet to castrate him but he says he doesn't do it in hot weather. What can we do? Can anyone do it now safely,(June 27th)? I hate to wait till October to have this done. He is VERY territorial and has almost killed our chickens and cats that venture into his area. We also have a very large pet Nubian goat that is scared to death of him. This donkey bosses and rares up at me and my wife. It's hard to even get in there with him. I was hoping castration will squelch some of that desire to boss and defend territory.
  
  Another big problem we are having is the fact that the donkey will NOT stop biting and nipping at us when we get near him. He was hand fed by the previous owners and now all he does is lip, nip and bite everything that comes near him. I try to have a stick nearby and "pop" the side of his snout when he does it, but he doesn't take it too seriously,(even when I pop him fairly hard), He keeps coming back and nips some more. We are at our wits end. What can be done to make him stop this behavior? We like him and want to keep him, but I doubt we can if he stays like this from now on.
  
  Any suggestions,help or advice would be apreciated. Dave and Leslie Baker

  We have 4 miniature horses and 9 standard horses. We also have two pygmy Tennessee fainting goats. At night, we have heard sounds like that of a mountain lion. My question is, do donkeys really protect other animals? If so, how do they do it? Also, does this apply only to standard size donkeys or does this include miniature donkeys? Any suggestions?

  Belle the mighty mini mule is for sale. She was registerd but her papers have been misplaced and she has gone though two owners since they were lost, so it is not likely that they can be obtained. She is about 40 inches tall and is five years old and is a joy to have around. She loves to play games and we have had her saddled up and gotten on her in a stall. We don't know that anyone has ever ridden her, but she is willing. For sale for $450 We are located in Pittsville,Virginia 24139...434-656-8504

• Mule Wanted John preffered -- Paula Juergens, 20:05:15 10/30/05 Sun (0-2pool194-146.nas37.tukwila2.wa.us.da.qwest.net/67.5.194.146)
  Hi All!
  We're in the search of another mule to add to our family crew. We go to just about every equine related event we can find. Open shows, endurance rides, back country horseman rides, elk and deer hunting, team penning and sorting, you name it, We have a molly and an appy mare in one field and a yearling stud colt all by himself in the other so we'd like to find a John to go out in the feild with the kid. Color and good looks are preffered, but personality, reliability, and lack of serious vices is far more important. Needs to be big enough to pack a 6 ft tall, 200 lb rider withtack,rifle, packs and a nights feed. And sane enough to go out in public. Some thing around 14.3 and stocky upto 16 hands and lank. We're offering an excellent home with over 30 years of eqine experience. A warm barn in the winter, shade trees in the summer, automatic waterers in each field and stall, no boxes, our stalls allow each animal to touch and see the horse next to them.

  Chico - 15.3 Hand Palomino John Mule - Coming 4yrs old - I really want him to go to a show home. He is a Beautiful Mover with a slow flat lope and trot! You wont find another mule that can lope as slow and pretty as Chico can. He is VERY smooth at all of his gaits (walk, trot, lope). He would make a Awesome English, Western Pleasure, Reining, Dressage or Speed Event Mule! He is still learning and needs a rider that can take and finish his training in the even of there choice. He loves attention and loves to learn. Picks up all 4 feet and good for farrier. He is up to date on all his shots, feet trims and wormings. Gets along with grown horses. Loves people and very easy to catch and halter in pasture. He follows you everywhere. E-mail for more photos. Will go through water/creeks and has been ridden all over the hill country. $3500

  Can anyone recommend a website or a book that has good, sensible directions for bottle feeding a donkey foal?
  As you can imagine...Time is of the essence....
  Thanks
