Miniature Donkeys
This is a day old little one with a 9 year old. Very affectionate. Mini Donkeys will meet you at the gate to be petted. They love attention and will follow you around the pasture. They are easy to care for as they don't kick or bite over feed like horses do, but share easily one feeder. They are very gentle and often used for therapy with children and disabled persons. Our herd is 30-34" tall and includes spots, sorrels, and chocolates. newborn foals are 19-22" tall and weigh 12-18 lbs. You can pick them up easily.
You just gotta love the babies!!
Miniature Zebu Cattle
Loveable & Small. Full grown cows are 34-40" tall at their hips and weigh 350-400 lbs. Newborn calves weigh about 12-15 lbs and are about 19-22" tall. A bull may weigh up to 600 lbs. They are available in a variety of colors. Miniature Zebu cattle originate in India and are native this size. They love the Texas heat and can often be seen laying out on the hottest day on top of a hill. They are naturally disease and insect resistant as are their cousins the Brahman Cattle. They do not have the grazing requirements of American beef cattle and would be considered browsers much like goats or llamas. They will run across the pasture to get a leaf that falls from a tree or stand on their rear legs like a circus elephant to grab a tree leaf for a treat. They are very herd oriented and do not like to be alone.
