Light/Medium Sorrel Jack w/Star
DOB 10/23/07
Birth Height: 22"

Sire:  Shorecrests Little Buddy, 32.5" Light Red (Sorrel)
      Grand Sire:  Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee, 29.5" Red (Sorrel)
      Grand Dam:  Springlake Rosebud, 33" Light Red (Sorrel
)

Dam:  Parkside Flame, 32" Red (Sorrel)
      Grand Sire:  Windcrest Coppertop, 31.5" Bright Sorrel
      Grand Dam:  Windcrest Maria, 32" Gray-Dun


Introducing "Toby"... we've had quite a few foals this year born with a red cast to their coat compliments of their sire, Buddy, but this little guy is full-out red, no question! The few sorrel foals I've had so far have been born light and matured darker. I'm guessing Toby will do the same. I would say his coat in person right now is a medium sorrel. It's difficult to capture his true color on camera, the sun plays tricks on the photos unfortunately. Regardless, he's a handsome little jack and should mature on the smaller side, around 32". He has a great build and even better pedigree behind him on both top and bottom, packed full with sorrels and small sizes. Toby will make a wonderful pet for your family!

Dark Red/Brown (Bay Pattern) Jennet
DOB 9/29/07
Birth Height: 21.25"

Sire:  Shorecrests Little Buddy, 32.5" Light Red
      Grand Sire:  Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee, 29.5" Red
      Grand Dam:  Springlake Rosebud, 33" Light Red


Dam:  Shorecrests Baby Kakes, 33" Dark Brown
      Grand Sire:  Heartland Acres Gus, 31" Black
      Grand Dam:  Windcrest Miss Betsy, 33" Gray/White Spot


Sophie is a very well balanced foal. She is one of the best proportioned foals we've ever had. She's got a nice short back, straight legs, and should mature into a fabulous brood jennet in the 33" height range. Color wise, Sophie sometimes looks dark brown with black legs, but other times she has a lot of red in her coat, and underneath the baby fuzz there is very dark brown/black. We've had a handful of foals this year that have had this same dark brown/red bay pattern at birth. One of them is shedding out black as we speak, so I have no idea what to say about Sophie's future color at this point! She has a good mix of blacks, spots and reds in her pedigree so it will be interesting to see what she can produce as a brood jennet.

This little girl is easily material for the show ring. If you want some new bloodlines to show now and later breed, this could be your girl! Sophie is a hard one for me to offer for sale, don't be surprised to see her come off my for sale page if not spoken for by weaning time!

Gray Jack
DOB: 5/22/06

Sire:  Windcrest Java, 31.25" Dark Brown
      Grand Sire:  Springlake Razmataz, 30.5" Light Red
      Grand Dam: Windcrest Miss Scarlet, 31" Dark Red


Dam:  D.W.E. Gemini Dream, 34.25" Gray-Dun
      Grand Sire:  Windcrest Skeeter, 29" Brown
      Grand Dam:  D.W.E. Miss Minnie, 33.25" Gray-Dun


Click here to see Jasper's complete pedigree!

Jasper came to us early in 2007 from a farm in northwestern Pennsylvania that had decided to sell out their donkey herd. We had originally planned to rehome Jasper, but the more time we spent with him, the more we realized what a fabulous little jack he truly is. Although not in our breeding program plans to add a "plain old grey jack" to our herd, Jasper's impeccable pedigree and perfect conformation could not be overlooked. Jasper is one of the stockiest, wide chested, thickest boned donkeys I've ever seen, and his back legs are a 10 out of 10, absolutely perfect. Although Jasper's dam is a bit taller than I'd like to see in a herdsire's pedigree, her ancestors have small sizes that we hope will compensate. Jasper's sire, Java, who happens to be an award winning show donkey, carries the likes of LCR Valentino 58 among various Windcrest bloodlines in his background. Jasper's sire, Java, is outstanding in every way and also boasts tiny sizes on his side of the mix, right down to his 28" red grandmother. Jasper is staying tiny and maturing perfectly at just a little over 1 year of age. We look forward to the possibilities he may bring to our breeding program in the near future.


Congratulations to
The Moseback Family
Harrison, Ohio!

Jasper is moving to Ohio to live with three of
our former ponies, Butterscotch, Mason, Rusty!

      Grand Dam:  Brumar's Guardian Angel, 33" Black, NLP, No Cross


This little character is Bee's first foal, and oh, what a personality! He is a very handsome little jack with flecks of red throughout his coat. Dev should mature out to around 33" or so, and has already been spoiled by my kids, so the work there is done! No doubt, Dev will make a fine addition to your family. He will be registered prior to his leaving our farm, delivery available.

Red/Brown (bay pattern) or Dark Red Jack
DOB 6/09/07
Birth Height: 21.75"

Sire:  Wit's End Tyger Heart, Dark Spotted
      Grand Sire:  Sunset Acres Speedway Racer, 31.5" Black/Brown w/NLP
      Grand Dam:  Windcrest Noelle, 32.5" Brown/White Spot


Dam:  Shorecrest Kandi Kisses, 33.5" Sorrel
      Grand Sire:  Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee, 29.5" Dark Sorrel
      Grand Dam:  Gladybrook Ms. Ditto, 33.5" Dark Brown/White Spot


Finally! Our long wait for a baby from Tyger is finally over! Kandi delivered a bouncing little red-headed bundle of joy for us who we've appropriately named "About Tyme!" Little Ty has the most unique coloring. He looks exactly like his mother did as a foal, having what I call "bay" markings with dark black legs and a body coat carrying some brown, black and mostly sorrel colors in it. I think Ty will look very similiar to his mother as he matures -- she sheds out dark sorrel in the summer and looks dark brown in her winter coat. He should mature somewhere between 32-33" and would make a wonderful gelding prospect for showing. Ty is maturing very nicely and we are offering him at this time as either a pet or future breeding jack. He's got a great personality and has both the pedigree and mindset combined with a superior build to go on as a herdsire.

Red Jennet
DOB 4/15/07

Sire:  Shorecrests Little Buddy, 32.5" Light Sorrel
      Grand Sire:  Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee, 29.5" Sorrel
      Grand Dam:  Springlake Rosebud, 33" Light Sorrel


Dam:  Windswept Farm Red Jetta, 33.5" Red
      Grand Sire:   LN Red Sonfire, 31.5" Dark Red
      Grand Dam:  LN Jetta Jo, 33.75" Dark Brown w/NLP



We've waited a long time for a red jennet foal to come along, and she's finally here! Cherry Blossom is a fabulous little foal, very straight, nice build and her foal coat I would call a medium sorrel (red), so she may possible turn into a darker red as she matures. Cherry's pedigree couldn't be better -- it is completely full top and bottom. Her sire's side includes grandsire Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee (29.5" Sorrel), LCR Valentino 50 (32" dark sorrel) and LN Redsonnehi (31" Dark Sorrel) among many others. Her dam's sire was LN Red Sonfire (31.5" dark red) and her background is also very impressive going back to the original Sardinian imports. Cherry will make a fabulous jennet for showing now and breeding later. I would expect her to mature out to around 33".

"Boone's Little Spotted Rosebud"
Boone's Litle Spotted Rosebud
(Click photo to enlarge)
33.5" Dark Brown and White Spotted Jennet
DOB: 9/06/90

Sire:  Boone's Spotted Dude, Spotted Jack
      Grand Sire:  Boone's Little Domino, 35.5" Spot
      Grand Dam:  Boone's Little Speckles, 32" Gray/White Spot


Dam:  Boone's Little Rosie, 33.5" Red Roan
      Grand Sire:  Untraced
      Grand Dam:  Boones' Little Rosealeta, 32.5" Sorrel

Of all my jennets, Rosebud has probably the best conformation of all. Her rear legs are perfect, and she throws foals that are exactly the same -- straight and correct. Rosebud is our oldest jennet, turning 17 this September. Rosebud has had occasional health issues for us the past few years, most notably her teeth need attention a few times a year. When she first came to us a few years back our vet was alarmed at the condition of her teeth, and worked diligently to get her back to normal. She tends to go down on weight in the winter time, which for us, having a large herd of 40+ donkeys, makes giving her the individual attention she needs, craves and deserves, a difficult task. We would love to see Rosebud go to a home with only a few donkeys, where she can be cared for on a more one-on-one basis. She's a very sweet natured jennet, and would pair up nicely with our other older jennet being offered at this time, Dorothy.

Rosebud has been pasture exposed to our newest young jack, Maplewoods 27 Jasper, out of Windcrest Java since the end of May. Although Rosebud normally breeds back easily for us, I do not feel confident that she has settled due to his young age, but just so you are aware there is an outside chance that she has. Rosebud is registered and is current on all of her vacciations until September 2007. She will go to an approved home only, where I feel she will be cared for as well as she is being cared for here. I prefer she go to a pet home with only a few donkeys so that she will be given proper attention. She has lots of years of love and companionship left in her for your family to enjoy.


Congratulations to

"Rolling Ridge Dorothy"

Rolling Ridge Dorothy
(Click photo to enlarge)

32.5" Light Gray Jennet
DOB: 10/02/92

Sire:  Rainbow's Blizzard, 32" Dark Spot
      Grand Sire:  Bumpus Farms Cunningham, 33" Spotted

Dam:  Hartman Donkey's Jean, 34.25" Gray

Dorothy is probably the sweetest miniature donkey you will ever come across. She is easy to work with, loves attention, adores children, and is currently looking for a nice new family to move in with. Dorothy had a difficult delivery for us in 2004 that resulted in an emergency C-Section, and she lost her foal. After letting her rest for a year, and after getting cleared from the vet to try to re-breed her, we have had no success so far in settling her, so we feel mother nature has decided enough is enough!

Dorothy has been pasture exposed to our jack, Buddy, for the past few months, but I've seen her come back in season and do not feel that she is bred (but just so you are aware there is that outside chance that she COULD be). We have decided that Dorothy will be much happier in a smaller herd situation as a pet for someone rather than lost in the crowd here with our herd of 40+ donkeys. She is registered and up to date on all of her vaccinations until September 2007. She has no health issues other than the breeding problems I've described. I will NOT sell her to a breeder as I do not feel that is the best situation for her, so please do not ask. Dorothy must go to a home with at least one other miniature donkey as a companion. She is a very sweet girl, and we will work hard to find the right home for her.

Grey Jennet
DOB 4/30/07

Sire:  Shorecrests Little Buddy, 32.5" Light Sorrel
      Grand Sire:  Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee, 29.5" Sorrel
      Grand Dam:  Springlake Rosebud, 33" Light Sorrel


Dam:  SNS Murphy Brown, 34" Dark Brown
      Grand Sire:  SNS Tiny Tim, Brown
      Grand Dam:  SNS Coco, Brown


Melody is a sweet little classy gray jennet who will make a wonderful addition to your family as either a pet or future brood jennet... or both! Melody carries lots of sorrel genes from her fathers side so she could become a sorrel producer for you. Melody's mother and sister (Diascia) are two of our brood jennets and both produce nice small foals with exceptional conformation. I expect Melody will do the same, and also expect her to mature around 33-34 inches tall.

Gray-Brown Jennet
DOB 4/16/07

Sire:  Shorecrests Little Buddy, 32.5" Light Sorrel
      Grand Sire:  Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee, 29.5" Sorrel
      Grand Dam:  Springlake Rosebud, 33" Light Sorrel


Dam:  KWA Faunas Peep, 32" Brown/Gray
      Grand Sire:  Bonnie's Woody, 33" Dark Gray
      Grand Dam:  KWA Faunas Bo, 33" Brown


Virginia was born on the same day the horrible Virginia Tech shootings occurred on 4/16/07. We decided to name her Virginia in memory of those lost and as a sign of a new beginning. This little girl is everything her name implies.... sweet, pure and very feminine. She is tiny, tiny, tiny, super straight and I can't fault her in any way. I am dying to keep her and add her to our herd, but so far can't convince "the boss" to let me as our herd has grown to 42 donkeys now.

Virginia will make a wonderful addition to anyone's herd or family. I doubt she will mature over 32" considering her small birth height and ancestry -- which includes 32" Charlie Bandito as her great grandsire on her dam's side and Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee (29.5" Sorrel) as her grandsire on her sire's side. Other notables in her pedigree include LCR Valentino 50 (32" dark sorrel) and LN Redsonnehi (31" Dark Sorrel).

Gray Jack
DOB: 1/04/07

Sire:  Maplewood's 27 Mojave, 33" Dark Brown w/Red Tones
      Grand Sire:  Windcrest Java, 31.25" Dark Brown
      Grand Dam: KiTerra's Little Lacy, 33" Gray-Dun


Dam:  Bumpus Farms Betty, 34.75" Gray & White Spotted
      Grand Sire:  M&M Jessie, 33.5" Gray & White Spotted
      Grand Dam:  M&M Julia, 35" Fully Frosted Spotted White


This little guy came along to our farm in a package deal with his dam, and he's been quite a happy little thing. He has a wonderful attitude and is extremely people friendly. Given the taller sizes of his ancestors on his dam's side, we think he will mature out to around 34", although he is still quite small at almost 2 months of age. He will make a fine gelding and could be trained to cart or even shown - he seems to have the attitude and conformation to do well that he probably inherited from his show-winning grandsire, Windcrest Java. Bandit can be weaned toward the beginning of June and will be given his first round of vaccinations prior to leaving our farm. His registration paperwork has been sent in and will be given to you upon delivery.

Red & White Spotted Jack
DOB 12/28/06
Birth Height: 20.5"

Sire:  Shorecrests Little Buddy, 32.5" Red
      Grand Sire:  Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee, 29.5" Red
      Grand Dam:  Springlake Rosebud, 33" Light Red


Dam:  Boone's Little Betty Jane, 31" Gray/White Spot
      Grand Sire:  DBF's Little Frosty, 35" Gray/White Spot
      Grand Dam:  KMA's Mona Lisa, 32.5" Gray w/Red highlights


Frosty was a long.. long wait for us! We thought his mother was due weeks earlier, but apparently we were a bit off. Frosty is a gorgeous little jack! His spots are definately red right now, I'm not certain if they will remain that way or not. His sire, Buddy, has thrown a few sorrel spots for us, and none have reached maturity yet so I'm not going to guess as to whether the red and white stays or goes! Frosty has a long pedigree behind him on his sire's side with a lot of LN breeding (LN Redsonnehi, LN Nighthawk, etc). His grandfather is Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee, a 29.5" red jack, with over 600 ancestors in his pedigree. On his mother's side, Frosty comes from a line of Boone's breeding.

Frosty is a very tiny foal, and stands very correct, with nice back legs and a nice square build and an absolutely beautiful head. We considered offering him as a future herdsire prospect because we can't find anything to fault him on at all -- but, there are a few taller ancestors in his pedigree, including a 35" grandsire, that have helped us make the decision to offer him as a very, very nice pet or show gelding for someone. I would guess Frosty will mature under 32" given his birth height and his parents sizes. We are offering Frosty by himself when weaned or you could take him home right now as a package with his mom, Betty Jane (information on Betty Jane below!)

Dam:  TST Dolly, 34" Grey *MSF (Masked Spotting Factor)
      Grand Sire:  to be posted
      Grand Dam:  to be posted


This little guy is just adorable. The beginning of his life was a bit tramatic -- his mom, Dolly, went into labor in the middle of the afternoon, and delivered out in the pasture a few days before we thought she was ready. A more experienced jennet of ours stole the baby from her, and wouldn't let Dolly near. Poor little thing didn't know who the heck his momma was! Luckily, we discovered the foal after what must not have been more than 20 minutes from his arrival and separated distraught mom, Dolly, and baby from the herd and gave them privacy inside the barn. Murphy, the kidnapper, haha... even tried to jump her way over a stall door to get into the barn after what she was convinced was her baby. It was quite an eventful birth for all of us! As an update, Murphy calmed down after a few hours of pacing and pawing to get into the barn, and was fine by the next day. Dolly and the baby bonded immediately and all are living happily ever after!

      Grand Sire:  Fisher's Great Gildersleeve, 32.25" Tri-Colored Spot
      Grand Dam:  Half Ass Acres Jody, 32.5" Light Brown/Gray/White Spot


Jeb holds a very special place here on our farm. At 2 days old, he became very depressed and weak and lost interest in eating. We had to milk his very patient mom, Shania, and bottle feed him for about 3 days. The vet ran various tests on both mom and Jeb, but came up with nothing other than an infection that Jeb somehow came down with. Little Jeb ran a high temp for about a week, but the medicine the vet put him on knocked whatever it was right out of him, and now, he's a healthy, happy little guy who loves to run and play with his best friend, Smokey. Oh, and spoiled, did I mention spoiled? Jeb's been getting so much attention from us, he's pretty sure he's the king of the farm. Uniquely colored as well, his spots are light gray and some appear light red plus he is perfectly patterned left side and right. He's got a nice even bite and a great build, and I'd expect him to mature around 33" or so. Looking to place Jeb in a life-long home with a very special family.

Smokey is a handsome little guy, very stocky, wide chested, great overall build. He has such an expressive face and just seems to know he's special by the way he carries himself. His coloring is a bit strange... he started out as a charcoal gray/black and now, seems to have black legs and face, and a deep chocolate body under his sun-bleached baby fur. We're not really certain what he'll turn out to be! We're looking for a special home for Smokey, we've grown quite attached!

Spotlite is a friendly little jack, who is currently busy being spoiled by my kids. He has a strong pedgiree behind him on both sides, containing lots of sorrel and small sizes. Spotlite is built like both of his parents, nice and stocky, has a great set of legs and should mature around 32". He is nice and square, and although he is quite young yet, so far has shown us he has potential to become a future breeding jack but we also think he'd make a fabulous pet for someone. For that reason, we're offering him as a pet or future breeding jack prospect.

Daisy is a very, very friendly foal. She's been a bit spoiled by my kids, as has her best friend, Maggie (see below). Daisy has a very nice build, she's square and has nice straight back legs, a good bite and solid front. She's got her dad's head and a bit of his sorrel coloring in the highlights on her grey coat. She has a spectacular pedigree behind her on her sire's side with a ton of sorrel, including her 29.5" grandsire Lawzyday Farms Cherokee, LCR Valintino 50 and LN Redsonnehi. Her mom's background adds Charlie Bandito to the package. She will make a fine show or brood jennet for anyone's herd. We have too many girls with similiar bloodlines or she would be staying on our farm.


Congratulations to a very excited new owner, John Marlette of Star Tannery, Virginia! Thank you for keeping these two sisters together and giving them a wonderful home!

Maggie is a favorite here on our farm. She is a very nicely built jennet, who is full sister to Laurel Highland, a 2004 jennet that we retained. We expect Maggie to mature just as nicely, if not even better, than her sister Laurel has done. Maggie comes with the sorrel genes from her father's family who include 29.5" grandsire Lawzyday Farm's Cherokee, LCR Valintino 50, and LN Redsonnehi just to name a few. Her grandmother and greatgrandmother on her mother's side send sorrel her way as well. She makes a fine candidate for the show ring and as a future brood jennet with her pretty color pattern and perfect rear legs. Maggie would be a sure pick to retain for our herd had we not already kept her full sister Laurel.

Charlie is a gorgeous little jack with a wonderful build. We considered offering him as a breeding jack prospect but I feel he may mature to about 33 inchs, which is a bit taller than most breeders prefer. He will make a super pet for someone though, is a bit on the shy side, but is friendly. Charlie can be weaned in mid-January, will have his first round of all vaccinations and will be registered.

Lucifer is a great little jack who has the happiest personality -- that is the best way I can describe him, he's just a happy little guy! He should mature to a light sorrel and around 32" or so. He is very petite right now and has the prettiest head. As you can see from the above photo, he is already kid-broke and loves attention from everyone. As with all the babies, he will be registered, have his first vaccinations, de-worming and hoof trim, if needed, prior to leaving our farm.

      Grand Dam:  Gladybrook Ms. Ditto, 33.5" Dark Brown/White Spot


Reese is an adorable foal. He is a smokey black with a visible cross, and he should grow to about 32"-33" or so. He is full brother to Kandace, who we have kept as a future brood jennet. Reese has been everyone's best friend since day one and will make a fabulous pet for someone. He will be registered, have his first vaccinations, de-worming and hoof trim, if needed, prior to leaving our farm.

Black Jack w/Star & NLP (no light points)
Birth Height:  20.75"
DOB 7/15/05

Sire:  Heartland Acres Gus, 31" Black
      Grand Sire:  SNS Tiny Tim, Brown (out of a 31" X 30" cross)
      Grand Dam:  SNS Fudgie, Brown (out of a 31" sire)


Dam:  Lynne Dean Farm Corydalis, 31" Dark, Dark Brown
      Grand Sire:  PMF Chico Bandito, 32" Medium Brown/Gray NLP
      Grand Dam:  LDF Lucinda Marie, 32" Gray


This little guy will make an excellent herdsire prospect. He is tiny and compact and very correct. We can't fault him anywhere. Twizzler has an overly sweet personality and is so very laid back. He has a nice wide set chest and a perfectly square build and an even bite. The summer sun has bleached Twizzler's baby hair a bit, but he is black with a barely visible cross and has the smallest star on his forehead, just like his mother. He has no light points other than the white on the inside of his ears. We would expect him to mature around 31" based on previous foals we've had out of Gus mixed with Cori's family history of small sizes. We are very proud to offer Twizzler as a very promising jack prospect!

Dam:  Brumar's Guardian Angel, 33" Black w/nlp & cross
      Grand Sire:  Dewey Meadows Armani, 34" Gray
      Grand Dam:  Coco, 34" Dark Brown


This little guy has herdsire potential written all over him. Underneath his summer sun bleached baby fur is a jet black coat. His mother has no cross, but Abe does have a slightly visible cross despite his jet black coloring. Abe has no light points, the inside of his ears are even black. This little guy should be able to throw blacks easily, and the NLP gene comes from both his sire and his dam, so we'd expect NLP babies out of him often. Mix all of this with a fabulous and playful personality, a nice even bite and square build, and you have a winning combination.

      Grand Sire:  Bonnie's Woody, 33" Dark Gray
      Grand Dam:  KWA Faunas Bo, 33" Brown


Crispie is a very feminine little jennet. We originally thought she was a dark brown but she appears at one month of age to be a rich, deep sorrel. She has a strong sorrel background on her sire's side and is a Charlie Bandito Great Granddaughter on her dam's side. That coupled with mostly small sizes (32" and under) sprinkled throughout her pedigree and a very personable attitude will make her a wonderful addition to anyone's herd.

DOB: 8/12/96

Sire:  Husky's Bo, 33.5" White Jack
     
Dam:  Casey, 34.5" Brown/White Spot

Cindy is a sweetheart and just loves attention. She is one of the most solidly build jennets I've ever seen. She's very correct, nice straight back, round rear and her back legs are wonderful. Cindy is a non-breedable jennet, so we are selling her as a pet/companion only. She has no health issues other than she's been pastured with a jack for the past three years and has never conceived. We would like to find her a loving pet home where she'll get lots of attention, and she must go to new home with at least one other donkey as a companion.

Gone to a new home!

Dam:  Parkside Flame, Red (Sorrel)
      Grand Sire:  Windcrest Coppertop, 31.5" Bright Sorrel
      Grand Dam:  Windcrest Maria, 32" Gray-Dun


This little guy was previously sold, but the new owners were unable to take him due to family issues. Sparky is already weaned and is ready to go to a new home. He should stay small at maturity, as both parents are about 32". His gorgeous sorrel color makes him stand out in the pasture. Sparky will be registered and also have his first round of vaccinations, deworming and a hoof trim prior to going to his new home. He has a few buddies here already, if you are looking for a pair of pets, ask us who we may be able to pair up with him for you.

Dixie is an adorable little jennet with a solid pedigree to back her up. She is very correct and square, and should become a fabulous breeding or show jennet as she matures. Judging from her birth height she shouldn't get very big either. Coming from a gray and white spotted mom with a heavy spotted background and a black sire with small dark colors in his pedigree, this classic little grey dun jenny should be able to surprise us all with her future foals. Dixie has personality on top of personality, give us a call and come meet her in person!
