Grey Dun Jennet with sorrel highlights
Height: 33"
D.O.B.: July 29, 2000


Brayers Are Us LN Riata is a 33" Grey Dun jennet with sorrel highlights and ears. Her father is LN Red Sonfire, a 31.5" sorrel jack, and her grandfather was LN Redsonnehi, a 31.5" red jack. Her mother was LN Kota's Emmy Too, a 33.5" grey dun jennet, and her pedigree goes back to the Bushnell's herd. She has had three babies for us: a black jennet (Raven) with Quarter Moon Barney that was selected to the Ass-Pirin Acres Select Sale, and was sent to Canada, a black/brown jack (Phoenix) with Hill Country Miniatures Liberty that is now a herdsire in Texas, and a grey jennet named Magnolia with Jimmy Dean, that has placed sixth out of 15 foals at the June 9, 2007 NMDA Texas State Championship Miniature donkey show. They all have been nice, but this last little girl, Steel Magnolia, is a brick house and is definitely show quality. Riata is a very quiet, well mannered jennet, who handles well, and is easy to lead and trim. She has retained her shape, with a great set of legs and teeth, and a straight back. She is an easy breeder, easy foaler and a great mother.

She is confirmed bred by external ultrasound to Country Music's Jimmy Dean for a spring 2008 foal.

Old West Gracious Me is a 32 1/4" brown jennet, and was sired by Country Music's Faron Young.

Gracie's mother was Perfection's Essence, a 31 3/8" gray dun jennet.

Gracious Me came to us Bred to Hooves, Etc Rascal... She had a gorgeous steel gray jack, that did well in the showring. He was first at the Hotter than Hell NMDA show. He went on to become a herdsire. She also had a Black/brown jack named Fandango that is a herdsire in Fort Worth, and a black/brown jack that could have been a herdsire, but he went to a farm in Fredericksburg as a pet. Gracious me has a beautiful short head, is a great mother and is easy to get pregnant and easy to foal.

She is Bred to Hill Country Miniatures Poquito, and she is confirmed in foal by estrone sulfate to Poquito for a spring 2008 foal.
