After many years of being “horse people” we discovered how much fun mules can be. Then in 2003 we attended our first Miniature Donkey Show and immediately fell in love with them.  Now, we are the proud owners of a select group of “KICK-ASS” miniature donkeys and are specializing in the sorrel color. We searched for quality breeding stock and are very happy with our little herd. We plan on staying small in order to produce a few quality miniature donkeys each year. (4/10)

Herdsire:
We do not keep a jack on the premises and therefore can choose from a variety of top quality herd sires (it's also alot quieter). For 2009 we are looking forward to foals by Lil Angels October Rising Son, a proven champion, owned and shown by Lynn Podesta of L Bar L Ranch and Rancho Rhea Rusty, a 30-1/2" red dun jack we co-own with Luv Me Tender Farm.

Directions:
We are located on the Central Coast of California, 8 miles north of Salinas, off Highway 101. Home of one of the greatest rodeos and parades in the country, the California Rodeo Salinas. We are 30 minutes from Monterey and enjoy the beautiful climate here. Please come by for a visit and see for yourself what we have discovered about these wonderful gentle creatures.

Currently for sale:
Foals are due in July and September of 2009.
