We went out with a bang with our last foal of the 2005 season. A very loud colored spotted jennet. She is just a doll. Sassy was named by her new owners who have been waiting all year for a spotted jennet to be born! She is a little tank...very stout and stocky....perfect bite and straight legs. Primero, her sire, did well! We are so proud!!

Big is very, very dark...we are not sure if he is a black with a stripe or a black/brown....time will tell...either way he is a doll. He has a dark belly, dark eye rings, and just a smudge of white on his nose and inside of his ears.

Inga's first foal and he is a doll. He is very stocky and heavy boned with a perfect bite!! We were surprised at how tiny he was after such a dramatic birth. Inga insisted on having him standing up and it took three of us to assist in pulling him out. He entered this world sucking his tongue and he still does! Inga is being a great first time mom...she really loves her baby! A big 'thank you' to Julia Vaughn for assisting us in the birth. We are not sure we could have gotten him out without her!

White Noise has two dark spotted eyes with heavy eyeliner around each eye. He has a broken stripe down his back and several dark spots on each side. He has a perfect bite and his legs are very straight and correct. He is short coupled and heavy boned. He is going to be one heck of a little show donkey one day! His pedigree is filled with dark spotteds, sorrels, and blacks including his grand sire, Dodge City Miniatures Jack of Spades, who is a 31½" Black with a Star and Snip and No Light Points.

So sorry...but this jennet is not for sale. We have never kept one of Sheena's babies and we have always regretted it. Miz Moxie is going to stay right here at Half Ass Acres! Thank you to my great friend, Julia Vaughn, for naming her. I am so sorry but we just can't part with this little girl either!

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! Moxie is home and we are thrilled with the difference in her after 110 days in training. Click the link above to see her updated photos!

This is a very, very extra special little girl for more reasons than one! Hula 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...everything else is totally black...even the inside of her ears and her belly. She is only 6 hours old in these photos and so far she is so black that we do NOT see a cross! Sorry, but Hula is not for sale!

Messie's mom fooled us and she foaled in the maternity ward early in the morning on the day she was scheduled to be put under the barn cam. We had a beautiful brown girl waiting for us when we went to the barn to feed and clean early in the morning...so all is well that ends well!
