How do I begin, where do I start, how can I explain? The people, who know me well, know that Junebug has always held a very special place in my heart. I have always loved her so much, even before I ever owned her. Then one day, Junebug was ours and all was right with the world. Sshe foaled, Black & Blue a.k.a. Bruise, in 2008, who we have retained in our herd and who, by the way, we consider to be the finest jack on our farm. We chose to breed her to Napoleon this time knowing that the elegance from both parents would only produce a masterpiece. We were not wrong!!

As we watched this little guy being born all we saw was white, and more white, and very few spots. As he dried it was evident that his few tyger spots had been delicately placed to perfection. He has dark spots around his eyes with dark eyeliner (guyliner!) all the way around both eyes, three tear drop tyger spots on his left shoulder, on his mid section, back of legs, and ears.  All of his spots have deep halos around each one which means his spots will never change. When he was completely dry his coat resembled lofty clouds floating in the clear blue sky. He stood there with a presence of beauty rarely seen in a new born jack….and he weighed 31 lbs. standing 22.25”…. built like a tank!!! If he had arm muscles I’m sure he would have flexed them to all the other donkeys as if to say, “JEALOUS MUCH?” He is a one of a kind boy with lots of herd sire potential. We are keeping this boy as our new junior herd sire.

Update! Jealous Much was placed with three brood jennets after the 2011 show season ended. They are all three in season and hopefully he has successfully settled them in foal.

Update!! Jealous Much is the official "High Point Halter Jack of Tennessee" after his first and only year of showing!  He tied with his stablemate, HHAA Heza Brick House, for this award!

Thank you to Dena Wilson who handled Jealous Much during his photo session and made these fantastic photos possible!

Boy is Brickman ever tiny! Dark eyeliner all the way around both eyes too. We love the character of the little boy, Brick, in the situation comedy 'The Middle' and we wanted to name a donkey after  him. ***hanging my head and repeating in a whisper....... 'after him'*** Thank you to Dena Wilson for handling Brickman during his photo shoot.

Brick attended his very first show in April of 2011, and placed 1st in a very large foal class (8 entries) at the Mule Day Mini Mania Show in Columbia, Tennessee!

Brick attended his second show August of 2011, and placed 1st in an even larger weanling/yearling jacks to halter class (9 entries) against very stiff competion in Lebanan, Tennessee! Brick has defeated his stablemate, Jealous Much, every time he has shown against him. But don't tell Much!! We are so very proud of Brick!

It is impossible to keep them all and we have come to the decsion to sell our little Brickman. We just have too many jacks and we only need one spotted jack. We need to sell Brick far, far away as he defeats his stable mate, Jealous Much, every time he shows against him!

We will gladly accept payments. Brick has been microchipped to comply with the new Miniature Donkey Registry rules plus DNA typed. He is up to date on all vaccinations including West Nile, hoof trimmings and de-wormings.

Update!! Brick is the official "High Point Halter Jack of Tennessee" after his first and only year of showing!  He tied with his stablemate, HHAA Jealous Much, for this award!

Brick's new owner has graciously allowed him to stay here
until Spring so that we can possibly breed several jennets to him.

Click MDR sticker to see Ray's complete pedigree!

We just purchased Ray back from Itsy Bitsy Burro Co. They have owned him since he was a few months old but they are reducing their herd due to the draught and hay situation in Texas and they offered him back to us. We jumped at the chance to have our red jack with our farm name. His dam is one of our very favorite red brood jennets and Ray has all of the best qualities of both his sire and dam. We will be body clipping Ray and taking new photos very soon after he has rested from his long trip from Texas.

Pepper is our pride and joy! He is perfect in every way...small, stocky, square, correct and he produces all those qualities in his offspring. You can spot a 'Pepper' baby in our pastures a mile away. He is also so laid back that a child could handle him.

Pepper has been retired and gelded so that he can live out the rest of his life in happiness. Pepper has meant to much to us over the years not to take care of him in his old age. We have several of his daughters and grand daughters in our herd so his legacy will live on!

These photos were taken in September of 2010, at sixteen years of age!
