We are pleased to consign this fancy sorrel jennet with her mother, Godiva, to NASS, Des Moines, Iowa on June 21, 2003.

Look at me! Mon Cherie is a treat for the eyes. Fiftyfire gives a gorgeous head and balance to his foals, along with wonderful color. Godiva's foals have quality conformation. This foal from Godiva and Fiftyfire has everything we were expecting and such beautiful color. She may well also end up a dark sorrel as her color deepens daily.

Meet Scarlett O'Eara, a drop dead gorgeous, square dark sorrel jennet foal with curly foal hair. All we can say is WOW! She is a carbon copy of her full sister, Synnamon's Star, one of our top foals in 2001, and a full brother to our 30" herd sire, The Elms Eric the Red. Scarlett's sire and both grandsires are among the brightest sorrel jacks anywhere: Di Di, Red Beau (1995 National Color Champion), and Winchester (Valintino 49). Both grand-dams are also outstanding - the stunning sorrel jennet, Philamena 79, and the 1990 National Color Champion, Blossom. Scarlett's full pedigree is peppered with sorrel genetic. She is one of our top 2002 sorrel foals.

Rimfire is an exciting herd sire prospect who has everything going for him - conformation, drafty build, small size, great pedigree, eye appeal, friendly disposition, and beautiful Dark Sorrel color! Rimfire has an elegant trot and is very alert and active. His full sister, Fifty's Fancy, developed into a strikingly beautiful miniature donkey and we expect no less of Rimfire. The bay pattern on his legs sets off his beautiful dark sorrel color, adding to his visual appeal. Not only does the pedigree have classics like Valintino 50 and the Fireman, but also a deep sorreloutcross pedigree on the dam's side. Fiftyfire's foals have stayed small and we expect Rimfire will too. Rimfire is one of our best jack sorrel foals we're offering this year.

The dorsal stripe is wide and runs all the way from the base of the ears to the tail. Her ears are red with dark brown tips. Some of her legs have appaloosa dots on them. The rest of the spots are bold, as you can see. With a fantastic build and a wonderful set of legs, she is a very special jennet.

Sable Princess is an elegant little jennet with a striking, shining sable coat and black legs. She is the result of crossing some very straight, drafty, well conformed donkeys with interesting, black and sorrel genetics. Her sire is a compact, drafty, small dark sorrel and her dam is jet black. Her grand dam, Venus Grace, is a real dark sorrel beauty who sold at auction for US $12,000 in July, 2002. Her grand sire, Black Beans, also a very high selling donkey at auction, carries concentrated black genetics and has produced a number of jet black foals. It will be very interesting to see what Sable Princess produces when she attains breeding age.

We just had to name this friendly sorrel foal Red Strider for the way he moves with a smooth, confident action around the paddock. He has balance, great conformation, and Di Di's nice back end. Strider has a beautiful head and loves people. This sorrel fellow is backed up genetically with all the red genes you could want. Consider Red Strider for his conformation, beautiful action, and endearing personality.

Strider is heading South to Florida to a
great home. We'll envy him next winter !

Angel is a classy chocolate jennet foal who roams the field with lots of energy. There is quality built into her from both her well known sire, Fiftyfire, and her small dam, Godiva. Angel is very friendly, square and just everything you would want in a refined donkey. She has great show potential. Her half sister, Athena, was the reserve champion jennet at the 2002 Cheers For Ears show.

She is a "half sorrel" due to her Fiftyfire and Fireman sorrel genetics. Bred to a sorrel jack, when mature, you have a good chance of having a sorrel foal. Fiftyfire daughters are rarely available, so take a good look at how Angel might fit into your breeding program.

Angel is for sale!
