Our Miniature Donkey Jennets at K and K Ranch in Brownsboro, Texas

Welcome to K and K Ranch Miniature Donkeys and Bucking Bulls!

Our Jennets

We have spent a good deal of time selecting our jennets. Most of these jennets were raised on our ranch as yearlings and possess the qualities we are looking for. We look for characteristics that will cross well with our jacks. Our goal is to produce donkey's with excellent conformation and movement, good bone, straight legs, and an over all balanced frame. We place importance on a good, sound disposition, and feel this is important to the breed.

The minute StarLite was born I knew she was special. Her dam has done well in the show ring, and StarLite has the conformation and build that I am breeding donkeys for. Plus she loves people. StarLite has a beautiful head like her sire, the most perfect set of legs I could ask for, and is built like a little tank. She will be shown until she is old enough to join our brood jennets.

News Flash!! Her first time shown StarLite wins her age division halter class and then stands ACOSA Grand National Jennet at The Great Celebration Mule & Donkey Show July, 2005!

Blossom, aka Marymabel, was the start of my venture. My husband asked what I wanted for Christmas one year, and guess what I told him, yep, a miniature donkey. Well, you know the story now! Marymabel is as sweet as they come. She loves everyone. You can do anything with her. Marymabel is a small and compact jennet, with very conformed and even dark gray spots on both sides, and lots of leg garters. Her foals have been very nice, and we are anxious to see her foal in 2007.

In 2003 she foaled a brown/gray and white spotted jack, KKR Cajun, now residing at Short & Sweet Donkey Ranch. Cajun has numerous wins in halter and obstacle classes, and was the National Reserve Champion ACOSA Jack in Shelbyville 2006.

Her 2004 foal, SpotCheck, sired by Sunset Acres Rowdy Yates is absolutely gorgeous. Heavy boned and very correct.

Stolen Lottie, as our webmaster calls her since I bought her before she could, is as sweet a jennet as I've ever seen. Her nickname is "Rooty" because she will root under your arm until you stop and pet her. Lottie is a nice drafty little jennet, with a beautiful head, great markings, a nice round rear end, wide chest, and straight legs. She is one of my favorite jennets, not just because of her personality, but because of her conformation and what she has produced for me.

Cinderbelle is by far one of our favorites. Although she was spoiled when I got her, she is spoiled here too. I can't take all the credit. She would rather be with people than with other donkeys. Cinderbelle is just gorgeous. She has a beautiful head, exceptionally straight legs, tracking perfectly, and she shows lots of width in her chest. Thanks Windcrest Acres in Batavia, Ohio, for this great little donkey!

A very straight girl who is a full sister to a black jack, KKR Good As Gold, that I showed at The 2004 Tennessee State Fair and who won Grand Champion Jack against all ages when he was only 6 months old! I knew she was going to be a nice donkey the day she was born. She just had that 'look' about her. She has a really pretty head, beautiful, straight legs, with perfect tracking, and is really upheaded and showy. Izzy is beautiful to watch in the pasture and the show ring.

Fancy is one of my favorite babies. She is just like her mom in personality, and very sweet. She never meets a stranger. I took her to the Texas Shoot Out for her first show and she won the class out of 30 something entries. I have started her in obstacles and she is really doing well. Fancy is a well built little girl and I expect her to be a lot like her dam. She is wide bodied, with good bone and a pretty head. She is actually black when I keep her out of the sun. I'm looking forward to showing her over the next couple years before I add her to my herd.
