We are proudly offering our only foal born in 2026. Ghosted or fondly known as Ghost or Teddy. Teddy has excellent conformation, color, stockiness and personality. He is a little shy of strangers because after he was born I was recuperating from several back procedures and did not spend a lot of time with him. After he gets to know you he could not be sweeter. The video below is our great friend, Savannah Ames of Southern Asspitality Miniature Donkeys, taking him through the obstacle course for the first time. He seemed to really enjoy it and when Savannah was finished Teddy jumped right up on one of the bridges all by himself. (see in the video below)
Teddy will be up to date on the following vaccinations before he leaves for his new home: Eastern/Western Encephalomyelitis, Tetanus, Rhino, Influenza, and West Nile using Prestige 5 vaccine. He will be given his initial vaccine and then three to four weeks later he will be given a booster. You will not need to vaccinate him again until the following year. We will vaccinate Teddy against Rabies as well with a separate vaccine. We expect Teddy to mature smaller than his sire and dam but he will more than likely grow no taller than his dam, Liza.
Teddy could make a fine additon to your breeding program and/or a very nice show donkey. If you prefer we will geld Teddy at our farm before he leaves at our expense. Geldings are the very best as they have their minds only on you and not the girls. You are welcome to make payments until Teddy is ready to leave for his new home in early September. He must go to a home that has another donkey for a friend. E-mail us for pricing and more information. Our e-mail address is minidonks@united.net or text us at 615-504-4536. If you call you will have to leave us a message and we will call you back as we receive so many spam calls that my phone will send you straight to voice mail if you are not already in our contacts.

Miniature Donkey Hoof Trimming Demonstration
March 13th, 2024
The following are videos of hoof trimming that we made in 2013 for our
customers only since Joe is not a professional hoof trimmer. We decided to post
them on our website after Rick Story of Storyland Miniature Donkeys in Fairbault, MN. did such a great demonstration
using the same tools while we were attending the American Heritage Miniature Donkey Sale held on 6/21/25.
If you see a donkey
you like be sure to send us a deposit to hold it so you won't miss out! We
cannot hold a donkey without a deposit. Sorry but too many broken promises
in the past. Discounts given when purchasing more than one donkey. Donkeys are much happier when paired up.
All of our miniature donkeys are microchipped to comply with the new Miniature Donkey Registry regulations. We do NOT let pet jacks go to their new homes without being castrated by our vets at our expense. Our vets will castrate our foals at five months of age and we keep them at no additonal charge until they are healed. Jacks are not pets and under no circumstances will we allow an uncastrated jack to leave for their new home and put our customers at risk. Castrating donkeys is a little different than castrating other equines and we would rather our very experienced vet handle that operation before they go to their new homes.
All of our donkeys are sold with a negative coggins test (whether sold out of state or not); health certificate (if sold out of state); pedigrees; one to two sets of registration papers (MDR - Miniature Donkey Registry and ACOSA - American Council of Spotted Asses...if spotted papers are applicable;) complete health records; a new halter and lead rope; a hard cover book to hold all records plus several 8 x 10 full color photographs; a left and right side photo ready to send in with their registration transfers if updated photos are needed; a personalized dvd with all unedited photos and all unedited videos ever taken of your donkey by us; a unique edited music video of your donkey only; an exclusive 'Half Ass Acres' t-shirt (not available anywhere else!); a current year or next year Donkey Calendar; and many, many more goodies; and, most importantly, a recipe for caring, training and loving them!!
All of our donkeys are vaccinated against the following:
Eastern/Western Encephalomyelitis, Tetanus, Rhino, Influenza, West Nile and Rabies. All of our adult donkeys are also vaccinated against Botulism. We do offer significant discounts on package deals or if you have previously
purchased a donkey from us. All of our donkeys comply with the new Miniature
Donkey Registry rules by being microchipped.
Contact us for more details or visit our 'Jennets Due to Foal' page. We have them lined up from top to bottom in the order we expect them to foal.
