miniature donkeys
Our foals arrive year round. Check back often as we post new pictures on our Nursery page. Feel free to inquire about a foal. We may not place them on our "For Sale" page until they are weaned and clipped, but they may be available for purchase before then. In fact, most of them are sold before they are weaned, so don't wait to long to ask!
2008 Foals
Li'l Angels Roscoe
Brown-Grey, Jack
Sire: Randy Travis
Dam: Bethany
What a sweet little guy, and SOOOO cute! Photos do not do him justice! Very correct, and VERY small...only 20 1/2" at birth. We can already tell he is going to be really stocky and wide. We look for a very strong future out of this little guy.
Li'l Angels Red Dragon
Red, Jack
Sire: Red October
Dam: Solstice
You just couldn't ask for a more beautiful foal! Sorry the photo isn't great, my camera is having some problems...but his color is unmistakable in spite of the bad quality photo. This guy is just gorgeous, and his color is deep red all the way down to the skin. We think he is quite exotic, and perhaps he will breathe fire.
Not available at this time.
Li'l Angels Indiana Jones
Brown/White Spotted, Jack
Sire: 1/2 Tespoon
Dam: Toffee
This little guy is just a perfect little package....so perfect in fact, we plan to keep him. With his beautiful spot pattern, his small size, and perfect conformation, we just can't let him go. We had hoped for a spotted jack out of this pairing, and this one is right on the money.
Not available at this time.
Li'l Angels Katie Scarlett
Red, Jennet
Sire: Red October
Dam: Maggie
This is the second beautiful red jennet foal Maggie has given us, and she is practically a clone to Red Dragon. She isn't as red as he is, but they sure look alike. Don't get your hopes up, we plan to keep this one.
Not available at this time.
2007 Foals
Li'l Angels Cloud Nine
Mostly White, Jennet
Sire: Mr. Playbill
Dam: Sophia
Isn't she just precious? What a gorgeous little girl! Her mother previously gave us a jack foal, Casper, who looked just like her. Casper went to California to Lynn Podesta, and can be seen on our Awards page. They are practically clones! She is just as sweet as she is beautiful, and has wonderful confomation.
Li'l Angels Crystal Chandelier
Gray, Jennet
Sire: Parker
Dam: Sparkle
This girl is absolutely stunning! She is out of our Li'l Angels Sparkle, who is an exceptional jennet, and her daddy is Li'l Angels Parker, owned by Susan and John Baker. I can't decide which parent she looks most like, but she certainly has her own unmistakable beauty.
Li'l Angels Confetti
Dark Brown and White, Jennet
Sire: Mr. Playbill
Dam: Polka Dot
Will wonders never cease! This is our first foal out of Mr. Playbill, and isn't she a beauty? I just love those chocolate dipped legs! She is very square and balanced and already has a very nice chest and rear. She is only 2 days old in the photo. Look for Confetti at the Ozarks Classic Breeders Sale in June, 2008!
Li'l Angels Pandora
Brown, Jennet
Sire: 1/2 Teaspoon
Dam: FL Cheyenne
What a little doll! I just keep falling in love with this one every time I see her! She is absolutely adorable. She is very correct in conformation, and has a very ladylike manner about her.
Li'l Angels Criss Cross
Brown/Gray/White, Jennet
Sire: Mr. Playbill
Dam: Cleo
"Crissy" has a gorgeous spot pattern, and basically looks just like her mother. Her spots are almost perfectly symetrical on both sides. Even more exciting is her conformation...this girl really has a super wide chest and very nice legs. She was a little shy at first, but you wouldn't know it now! She just loves to cuddle!
Li'l Angels Skippy
Gray, Jack
Sire: 1/2 Teaspoon
Dam: Broadway
We have to watch very closely to make sure no one slips this one in their pocket and tries to leave with him.....he is the cutest little thing you ever saw, and only 18" at birth. I kept saying, "he's no bigger than a peanut", and ended up calling him Skippy.
Li'l Angels Cover Girl
Dark Brown, Jennet
Sire: Mr. Playbill
Dam: October Rose
This extraordinary little jennet is going to absolutely break my heart if she doesn't stop following me around with her little "baby bray". She definitely thinks I'm her second mom. We really couldn't ask for a prettier little girl, and she has fantastic conformation...but in addition she has such an outgoing personality! I have no doubt this one will be special in every way.
Not available for sale at this time.
Li'l Angels Hurricane
Brown, Jack
Sire: 1/2 Teaspoon
Dam: FL Elizabeth
He's powerful looking, just about like a "category 5"! Wow, this little guy is a tank, and he's just as sweet as he can be. He has exceptional bone, and shows great promise as a herdsie already. That adorable little face is irresistible.
Li'l Angels Shalimar
Dark Brown, Jennet
Sire: Red October
Dam: Ezzmarelda
This is the last foal of our spring foaling season, and what a way to finish! Shalimar is just an absolute doll, and so tiny! She is only 20", but she is so well proportioned. She sure does have that classic "Red October Look".
Not available at this time.
Li'l Angels
Chief Cloud
Brown, Gray and White Spotted, Jack
Sire: Randy Travis
Dam: JJ
JJ is a granddaughter of our Little Chief, our Champion performance gelding. She is a small jennet, and this little guy was only 19" at birth. He's not going to be big enough to drive and follow in his grandsire's footsteps, but what a cutie pie! He was born in a huge thunder storm, and I wanted to use the name Storm Cloud, but I just had to get "Chief" in there somewhere.
Li'l Angels
Fancy Me
Dark Red, with Black Trim, Jennet
Sire: Red October
Dam: Ellie Mae
Chocolate Dipped Cherries....that's what her color reminds me of. Fancy is the deepest red I've ever seen, with all black trim. Her photo does not do her justice, you can't imagine how pretty this color is! John Baker called it "burgandy" when he saw her. She also has the sweetest personality, and super straight legs! What a beauty! She's extra Fancy, that's for sure!
Li'l Angels
Lacey Doll
Black with star, Jennet
Sire: Playbill
Dam: Esther
"Lacey" is a real heartbreaker......just look at that face! I was very surprised by this little black beauty, with her tiny little star and her velvety black coat. She is practically a clone of Black Diamond, below, her 1/2 brother, and she is our third Playbill foal. Her legs are perfect, and she has a wonderful little profile. Who could ask for more?
Not available at this time.
Li'l Angels Fararri
Reddish Brown, Jack
Sire: Short Assets Starfire
Dam: Terah
Well, you tell me what color he is? He certainly is very red, but he also has blackish lower legs. Anyway, he is very pretty, and we are very taken with this little boy. His mother is a super nice jennet, and his sire is well known in the showring. Lot's of potential here!
Not available at this time
Li'l Angels
Spencer
Dark Gray, Jack
Sire: Mr. Playbill
Dam: Cara
This is one of the sweetest foals I've ever had. He just loves to cuddle, and he is so gentle with his little touch. Spencer has really nice balance, and a beautiful "tuxedo gray" haircoat with black trim, but mostly I just love his personality.
Li'l Angels
Black Diamond
Black with Star, Jack
Sire: Mr. Playbill
Dam: Candy Kisses
OH BOY, what a cutie pie! This is our second foal by Mr. Playbill, and he's just something else! I know we can't keep them all, but this one sure is holding on to my heartstrings! Only 20 1/2" at birth, and just as correct as they come. Only two days old in the photos, and he is already following me everywhere. Black Diamond is very black, but he also has a lot of red highlighting the tips of his hair. I've never seen a foal this color. Also, his mother is a dark chocolate roan, and he shows signs of roaning on his legs. It will be interesting to see his markings when he is clipped in the summer. One thing is for sure, you can't miss that headlight!
Li'l Angels Easter Frost
Red Jennet
Sire: Red October
Dam: Chanel
Yes, that's right, she was born during the Easter Frost! But I don't mind her timing at all, she is just perfect in every way. This one is going to be super nice, and very small. She is already very square and correct with a very wide chest...and what a face! This little girl is a real sweetheart!
Not available at this time.
Li'l Angels Symphony
Dark Brown with Bay Pattern, Jennet
Sire: Red October
Dam: Millie
I just can't get a bad photo of this little beauty! She is a full sister to Brave Heart, and just as perfect as he was when he was born. Symphony is wide and square, with super straight legs, and just look at that adorable face! She is one day old in the photos.
Not available at this time.
