That Little Texas Outfit

We raise ONLY miniature donkeys, although we do have a standard jenny (above) to protect our jennet herd of "littles". We don't tell her she's not a mini, though; it would hurt her feelings.

Welcome to our miniature donkey farm, located in LaGrange, Texas - just off Hwy 159, in the foothills of the Texas Hill Country. LaGrange is conveniently located in the triangle between Austin, Houston and San Antonio, and is only 10 miles from Round Top, where the world famous Antique Festival is held twice yearly in spring and fall.

Our much loved donkeys cavort on 32 acres of beautiful rolling hills, grazing on bermuda and native grasses among sweeping pastures, massive, ancient live oaks and towering white oaks. Our home is a comfortable Texas home - metal roof and tons of big windows with a wide covered porch running down it's length, complete with big pine rocking chairs and a wide swing - nothing fancy, just comfortable! Adjoining our porch is a huge deck with more easy chairs where we enjoy donkey gazing, BBQ grilling and a nice glass of wine. We can look out from almost any place in our home and enjoy wonderful donkey views - our little piece of heaven on earth. We have rocks of all sizes, from gravel to big boulders. The rocks present a challenge with fencing, but are great for building rock walls and they make excellent donkey hugging benches. Come join us sometime to engage in donkey conversation and relaxation in the peace and quiet of the beautiful LaGrange countryside.

Nothing cuter and sweeter than a miniature donkey foal.

My other half of the farm!

We breed and hand-raise happy, healthy, very loving little donkeys that are a pleasure to own and care for. Our herd is kept small so that we can give lots of attention to the donkeys and make sure the few breedings we do each year result in very nice quality donkeys that we can find wonderful homes for. We strive for conformation, wonderful personality and small size that will do well in the show ring and as quality breeding stock. These little guys will also be delightful pets you can be proud to own and will look fabulous in your pasture.

Donkeys make the perfect pet - intelligent, loving, healthy, easy to care for. You don't need lots of acreage, but you do need enough room for them to run and play. Donkeys are easily trained for show, to pull a cart, jumping, obstacle courses, etc. They love to have something fun to do and thrive on attention. Best of all, they're snuggly, loving, nice smelling sweeties. If you have to ask what you do with miniature donkeys, all I can say, is - you've never met one in person! Once you've had the pleasure of interacting with these personable, loveable, little creatures, you'll know! Give them the respect and love they deserve and you'll have a friend and companion for life!!

Our donkeys receive regular vaccinations, hoof care, worming, and another important thing - lots of love & attention. These sweeties expect and demand their daily hugs and kisses. All are health-guaranteed, receive a negative coggins and a new halter and lead when they go to their new home, along with 'operating instructions'.

WE DO NOT SELL GUARD DONKEYS. Minis are not large enough to protect themselves easily against predators, so please, if you're looking for a guard, search for at least a standard size donkey that has been raised as a guard. We have a standard jennet to protect our 'littles'. We do not sell 'only child' donkeys either. In order to be happy, a donkey should have at least one buddy - preferably another donkey, although they will bond to horses and other livestock. We will not sell a donkey to a "weekend only" home. We feel any animal should have supervision and daily love and care.

Miniature Donkey Transportation
We can suggest several reputable shippers to transport your miniature donkey, including a wonderful international transport company that is a short distance from our farm.
