My most honored senior jennet. I first purchased a daughter of Penny’s, (LaBahia Trail Miss Double Cross) a gorgeous grey, consistent “Model Jennet”. Then I had numerous opportunities to see other “Penny” daughters. Like a lot of the older miniature donkeys that are registered, but have little information to go on, Penny had to prove what she had to offer the future of the breed. Luckily, she was bred to several different, but good jacks and produced some of the nicest foals that you could hope for. I originally took Penny to offer her a good retirement home. The vet, that had known her longer than I had, asked to do an ultra-sound to determine if retirement was needed. The results were that she was in very good health and breeding condition. And I expect to get 2 or 3 foals before she is retired. I have great appreciation for the “Marek” bloodlines and have included them in several other breedings with excellent results. I consider them great foundation bloodlines. Based on Penny’s past, I have bred her to “Z MO BETTA”, a black son of Circle C Little Mo Town. SMOKEY-MO (dark grey with black legs and ears) arrived on September 27, 2009. Penny again has produced a well balanced, well boned, very promising foal.
