We had so much fun walking four of our Miniature Donkeys (dressed up in their patriotic outfit) in the Marshall County, TN 4th of July Parade. After all of us (people and donkeys) walked in excess of 2 miles, we were pretty exhausted!!!!
Below is Macy Lee in her outfit. She even had a candidate running for Congress (Democrat) seek us out to take a photo!

I thought this photo was really funny! Our new Miniature Donkey baby, Legendary’s Buster Brown loves to grab a hold of my baggy sweat pants and go for a walk.

Our newest little baby is called Legendary Buster Brown. He is a feisty little fellow and was running circles around his mother after just a few hours! When this video was taken at about 10 days he was picking up everything he could find and trying to eat it. This was his first time with donkeys other than his mother and it was his first time in the big pasture. It was quite a day for the little guy.
As with all of the Cobra line his personality is the best. He loves to be held and played with and has the best confirmation you could ask for.

We are extremely excited and pleased with some of the babies expected for 2010. Below is information:
Light Sorrel – 301/2″ Red/Brown – 31-1/2″
This is an exciting breeding! Springlake Razmataz, son of the well-known Zeus is an excellent producer of champions. Cobra’s Natalie Cole is one of the few remaining daughters of Cobra’s Arthur and has produced outstanding, small, drafty foals. With the small size of both parents coupled with small genetics, this offspring should have beautiful confirmation and be small. Natalie has one red foal under 32″ and one gray dun at 30″.
Dark Red 30-1/2″ Red – 32-1/2″
This is a very pretty match-up. Quarter Moon Ticker Tape is a well-known Halter Champion with bloodlines going back to the Circle C, Sunset Acres and Lazy N stock. Cedar Creek Aneda Rose, is heavy on Lazy N stock with some of the Fisher line. Aneda Rose is very stocky with a pretty head, good legs and nicely balanced.
Light Sorrel – 30-1/2″ Dark Brown – 31-1/2″
Razmataz is a small, stocky jack with really nice confirmation. Being a son of Zeus, his bloodline is very limited and desirable. Cobra’s Flo Jo is a small, drafty jennet with excellent legs. She has produced very well in the past and throws her outstanding qualities.
Light Sorrel - 30-1/2″ Red/Brown – 32″
This breeding combines fine US and Canadian bloodlines. The Zeus bloodlines from Razmataz and the Canadian Perfection’s stock. Jetta is a daughter of Perfections’ Jett (A son of Future Link) and has The Fireman on her mother’s side. She has produced excellent babies, one red and one black.
Light Sorrel – 30-1/2″ Medium Sorrel – 32-3/4″
This combination should really be nice. Razmataz is small, red and stocky. “Sweetie” (the above photo does not do her justice) is a beautiful stocky, red jennet with lovely confirmation. Sweetie is a daughter of Cobra’s Red Man and goes back to LN Roseato Luigi, Valentino 50th and Jennie Sam of Bell E Acres on her mother’s side. This is a wonderful pedigree.

We don’t really have a “Way-Back Machine” that lets us travel back in time. However, one cold winter night we did come across some old photos that put a smile on our faces. We thought you might get a kick out of them also. We will only do a couple at a time to keep from boring you to death.
First of all we need to look at where we are today.
We had a lot of fun participating in a local Christmas Parade. This was the first for our Miniature Donkeys and they acted as if they had been in parades on a regular basis.
How fun is this photo!!!!!! This was back in the Seventies and I was a teenager. The dog is my Greyhound, Cyrus, as a puppy, at his first dog show. This Greyhound was from the last litter from the famous Seamair Kennels, Santa Barbara, CA. Seamair was very well-known in the 60s. This is a show win in which the judge was Joan Frailey. Cyrus easily attained his American and Canadian Championships and helped me to wins in Junior Showmanship. Every weekend was spent at a dog show with my mother and siblings.
This photo (although quite old and worn) is also from the Seventies and is my Palomino Quarter Horse, Lipton. The first time I ever saw Lipton and rode him and he bucked me off. Despite objections from my parents, that was the horse I wanted to purchase. I like spirit and a challenge. He was a challenge at first but we became best friends and spent countless hours on long trail rides. The next time you see my, ask me why the horse was named Lipton!
I also showed him a few times in Western Pleasure, but in those days, I was concentrating on showing my dogs. Our family also had a sorrel Quarter Horse, two Shetland Ponies, a Welsh Pony and a 1/2 Arab/1/2 Welsh foal.

This past weekend we had a Big Winter storm. Unlike the Midwest and Northeast, folks in Tennessee are not accustomed to these conditions. There were at least 100 auto wrecks and 1,000s without power for a period of time. But it sure was a beautiful!!!!
Dolly, our farm dog loved running in the snow.
As you can tell from the lack of hoof prints on the snow, the Miniature Donkeys were not as keen on the weather. They preferred their snuggly barn with plenty of hay.
Well not for long!!!!! The Donkey train decided snow was not for them and ventured back to the barn.
