Our
breeding jennets range in age from 5-13
years and in size from 30-1/4 to 34-1/4
inches.
While
awaiting the birth of a new foal, it has
always been exciting for us to anticipate
what features, size, color, and personality
the newborn will possess. We hope you enjoy
reading the stories and seeing the pictures
of our brood jennets and discovering the
endless possibilities in their offspring.

BB
is our sweetheart. We fell in love the minute
we laid eyes on her. She came into our family
with a disfigured face and visually impaired.
Her unfortunate story is that she was attacked
by a jack when she was a newborn. Having the
most wonderful disposition, she patiently
waits her turn when treats are handed out.
BB is the most compact jennet we have with
the kinkiest, curliest coat!

Buttons came to us along with her best friend,
Bows, who towers over her with a 36"

subdued babies - excellent for homes with
small children. She presents a straight topline

and is very rounded.

and tapered on the right and fading on the
left.

We
brought Heidi to our farm along with her daughter
BeeBee, our little disfigured face gal. They
will always be together as long as we have
anything to say about it! Heidi has been an
excellent mom blessing us with very sweet
and calm-natured foals. We always know when
Heidi’s coming - she gets as big as
a barn when she’s pregnant! Heidi has
been very consistent in her production of
quality foals. She is a rounded and stocky
beautiful spot.

B. stole our hearts when we first saw her.
Measuring just 20-1/2” at birth, she
is the smallest miniature born here at CLK

has always been. She is going to mature very
small like her Mom and we’re looking
forward to adding her to our line of brood

Georgia's Best JP 34"
Due
to foal October 2008 |
The
Lady loves treats! She manages to force her
way through the donkey crowd and be right
at the front when it's treat time! There's
no stopping her when the treats are all gone
either. She'll keep following you just to
make sure. Lady quickly established herself
as the matriarch of our donkey family when
we brought her home. Lady has a straight topline
with an unusually bold and wide shoulder stripe
and intermittent back stripe. Not to be outdone
by Silver's distinctive hoof markings, Lady
sports one black hoof and "ankle sock."
Lady's markings are striking. She is a full
blaze with a speckled muzzle. She has a dark
neck and dorsal spots, as well as dark markings
on her legs. |
