DONKEYS SOLD

Cedar Creek Gypsy Rose (DOB 7/26/10, 21” at birth). This striking red jennet has the best of pedigrees, being by Foxbow, and of our top producing jennet, Polly. Rose’s maternal sister, April, is our top show jennet, having earned the VHOF award, the Supreme Driving award (the first miniature jennet to do so), she been ADMS National Champion and was NMDA High Point jennet two years in a row (she has numerous halter wins as well). Rose’s other maternal sister, Nicolana, is just starting her show career, but she has been NMDA Grand Champion Halter donkey and this year she was High Point Reserve (green) at the Great Celebration (see both of these jennets on the “Awards” page). We expect little Gypsy Rose to be every bit as good as her older sisters and she has the added bonus of being sorrel! She has a beautiful head, straight legs front and back and a great top line. She is very inquisitive and friendly and she can’t get to you fast enough when you enter her pasture. She should make an outstanding show/breeding jennet. She would not be for sale except that we have kept two sorrel jennets from the last 2 foal crops and we want to keep our herd small. See her also on “Our Foal " page.

Cedar Creek Shady Lady (dob 10/5/09, 21” at birth). If you like dark and elegant this little girl may be just what you are looking for. She is by our Jr. herd sire, Foxbow, and out of our lovely Valentino 50^th daughter, Muffy, so her bloodlines are absolutely outstanding. Both sire and dam are small so Shady should stay small. Her color looks to be a smoky black but she could shed off as a very dark brown. She carries the sorrel gene so she should produce either dark or sorrel. She is only 3 days old in the photos but her quality is already evident. Even at this young age she is really friendly and runs up to greet anyone coming into the pasture. This little jennet should make an outstanding show or breeding jennet. (also see Shady on “Our Foals” page)

Cedar Creek Champagne Lady (DOB 4/29/09) is a gorgeous and correct dark brown jennet who has the looks and attitude to do well in the show ring. She has a beautiful little head and great topline, perfect bite and straight legs. She is sired by our Jr. herdsire, LN Foxbow, and out of one of our retired show jennets, Tiny Bubbles. She has plenty of animation and a beautiful extended trot. The picture was taken recently when she turned 3 months old. We forgot to measure her at birth but her full siblings have finished at around 32” and we expect her to mature to about the same size as her siblings. She is a little shaggy as she is starting to shed her baby coat, but her dark brown color can be seen coming in on her head. (see her also on the Foal page)

We recently clipped some of the baby hair from little Lady and as you can see by the pictures above (taken 09/08/09), she is absolutely gorgeous! She has a very elegant head and neck, and while she has lots of substance to her body and legs, she is still very feminine. Her head and neck (clipped closer than her body which still has lots of long baby hair) shows the dark chocolate color that she will be when she sheds out. As you can see from the pictures, she has a beautiful topline and a smooth rounded croup. She is a jennet of outstanding quality and to top it all off, she has a people loving personality.

Cedar Creek Mini Cooper (5/13/09 DOB) is by our Jr. head sire, Foxbow, and out of our top show jennet, April. Cooper was purchased when he was just 3 weeks old by Jamie Apple. (Sorry to those who have been asking about the availability of April’s first foal) He was named after one of Jamie’s favorite teachers. We hope to see Cooper and Jamie in the show ring! (see Cooper also on the "foals" page.)

Cedar Creek Little Black Bantam, 21.5" at birth (DOB 2/21/09) is by our junior herd sire, LN Foxbow, and out of our champion producing, Merit of Breeding jennet, Polyahana. Bantam has a top pedigree and he should make an outstanding show donkey. He has a pretty little head, straight legs and a short body. His maternal half sister, April, was ADMS National Champion Miniature Donkey (2004) and End of Year NMDA High point miniature donkey two years in a row. We expect this little guy will be as good. He has an outstanding temperament and is one of the first to great you when you enter his pasture. (see Bantam also on the "foals" page.)

Cedar Creek Special Sondae (8/9/08 dob, 21.5") is a gorgeous red jack with an absolutely outstanding pedigree. Sondae's sire, our senior herd sire, Sonne, is a top performance and halter winner and has produced many halter and performance winners, including the 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007 NMDA year end High Point jennets. Sondae's dam, Julie, is also a producer of champions and she is the dam of some top herdsires, including Sunset Acres Blaze and Sunset Acres Red Sunset owned by Cyder Bay Farm in Wisconsin. (See both sire and dam on "Our Herd" pages). Sondae is an outstanding foal in every way from his exquisite head to his beautiful straight legs. He has a very outgoing and friendly personality and he follows us around like a puppy. Sondae has the makings of a top show and herdsire. He is priced at $1500. If someone wants a top show gelding/pet, we will sell this beautiful little boy for $750. (see Sondae also on the "foals" page.)

Cedar Creek Nickelsby, a 3 year old 32.75" gelding by the great Nicodemus (Merit of Breeding, VHOF, Supreme driving award) and out of our Merit of Breeding jennet, Pollyhana, is for sale! This is only the second time we have ever offered a trained show gelding for sale. This young gelding was just awarded the ADMS Versatility Hall of Fame Award (see article in July/Aug 2008 Brayer). In addition, with very limited showing, Nick has earned 3 show High Point awards, the most recent being High Point Green donkey at the prestigious Great Celebration Mule and Donkey show, Shelbyville TN (July 2008). Nick is very versatile, winning in both in hand and driving performance classes. Nick consistently wins in hand trail and lead line races, as well as his first in hand jumping class at the Great Celebration. In driving classes Nick has won first places in pleasure driving, reinsmanship, obstacle driving, pole bending and stake races. Nick also has Champion and Reserve Champion halter gelding wins to his credit. The only reason we are offering Nick for sale is because we have his full sister who will soon be started in driving and we don't have time for both. If you are looking for a young show donkey who will take you to the top in both halter and performance, look no further! Nick is offered at $3500 (price may increase as Nick's show career progresses).

The first of our 2008 foals has arrived (4/20/08) and he is a standout. With his dark color (black?) and his large white star, he is hard to miss. With his bloodlines (by our Jr. herdsire, Foxbow. and out of our show winner and Merit of Breeding jennet, Glory) and conformation, he won't be overlooked in the show ring. More pictures of this little guy on our   "Our foal"   page.

Cedar Creek Scarlet Starlet (dob 7/10/07, 22.5" at birth). This little red jennet is stunning! She is by our grand champion halter and performance winning jack, Redsonne (see him on "Our sire"  page). Starlet's dam is the gorgeous red jennet, Julie (see her on "Our jennet"  page). Julie has some of the best foundation bloodlines in the breed and is one of only a couple of Jennie Sam daughters still producing foals. Starlet has a short coupled body, wide chest and perfect legs, both front and back. She has a beautiful neck well set on her shoulders and a gorgeous head accented with a flashy white star. She has an endearing personality and follows everyone around like a shadow. She is sure to make a top show and breeding jennet. (see her also on "Our foal"  page)

Cedar Creek Justin Tyme (DOB 3/06/07, 21.5” at birth). This little guy looks like me night be a "spitten image' of his dad, Foxbow! He is out of one of our top producing former show jennets, Tiny Buddles (see both sire and dam on "Our Herd" page). This little guy has outstanding conformation, a great topline, legs and head. He has an extended pedigree of small donkeys (with blacks and sorrels in his background) and we expect him to stay small. He look like he has the potential as a classy, correct herd sire. However, if someone wants a top show gelding (halter or performance) this little boy may be what you are looking for and we will price him at half the advertised price. ( See more photos of Justin on "Our Foals" page.

This picture of Keepsake was taken when she was 5 months old. Her outstanding quality is obvious in this photo. The picture was taken in the shade and as it was so dark we had to lighten the image to see Keepsake. The light splotches on her coat are beams of sunlight coming through the trees. When her adult coat comes in she should be a rich dark brown. We think she is one of Glory's nicest foals! To top it all off she loves people and is the first to greet you when someone comes into the pasture.  Newborn photos below.

Cedar Creek Keepsake (DOB 2/09/07, 22.5” at birth). This beautiful little jennet is by the black, Multi-Grand Champion jack Itsy Bitsy Burro Co Majestic and out of one of our former show jennets, Glory (see more about her on the 'brood jennet' page.) She looks like she will be an outstanding show and breeding prospect. Keepsake has great legs, and they don't get much more stocky and short coupled than this little girl. She has a small typey head and an excellent topline. Keepsake has two maternal sisters (Fancy and Fanfare) that are both winning at halter and performance. Her maternal sister, Fancy, has been NMDA End of Year High Point Champion for two years in a row. In addition, Fancy was 2006 NMDA National Champion High Point jennet (Green) at The Great Celebration in Shelbyville, Tennessee (see and read more about Fancy on the "Awards" page). Given her background, this little girl is destined to be a winner. To top it off, she loves people and she is one of the first to run to the gate to be petted.

Cedar Creek Ruby Valentino

Cedar Creek Ruby Valentino (DOB 4/22/06). This beautiful little red jennet is a full sister to Beamer (see more photos below) who is now in Texas and is a potential herdsire. The pedigree on this little girl is outstanding as she is by our Sr. herdsire LN Redsonne, and out of our Valentino 50th daughter, Sunset Acres Sweet Muffy. (More photos of her sire and dam can be seen on Our herd page). Ruby has a beautiful head and as can be seen in the photo from behind, she looks like she will have the same excellent hindquarters and legs as does her mom Muffy. (Muffy is still in her shaggy winter coat.) If you are in search of a show/breeding jennet you cannot go wrong with this little girl. Visit out "Foal"  page for more photos!

The pictures of Ruby above with her head and neck shaved were taken right after she was clipped, mid Aug.,2006. Therefore the red color of the clipped area has not yet returned. She is maturing into a gorgeous little girl with a beautiful head and well set slender neck. Her top-line and croup look like they will be outstanding. With her great legs, she is sure to get noticed in the show ring.

Cedar Creek Lady in Red

Cedar Creek Lady in Red (DOB 6/26/06, 22.5” at birth ) is a beautiful little red jennet with both an outstanding pedigree and conformation. Her yearling maternal half sister (Cedar Creek Julie Sam) placed well in a very large (29 entries) halter class at our NMDA National Show in Shelbyville TN (7/06) shown by a youth (Tyler Carlson)!! Her paternal half sister, Cedar Creek Farm’s Fancy That, was National Champion High Point (green) at the same show. Another paternal half sister, Cedar Creek Farm’s April Love has been NMDA High Point Jennet of the Year for two years in a row. This little girl should be an outstanding show (halter and performance)/breeding jennet with a lot of style and class. (photos at 4 days of age). Visit out "Foal"  page for more photos!

Cedar Creek Rodeo Red

Cedar Creek Rodeo Red (DOB 5/13/06, 23” at birth). If you are looking for a show gelding prospect that won’t get overlooked in the show ring, this little guy might be what you are looking for! He has a striking red color, a great body and legs and an “ up headed” head carriage. He has the type of outgoing temperament that makes a good performance donkey. Visit out "Foal"  page for more photos of Rusty!

Cedar Creek Wishing Star

More recent photos of Wishing Star (with halter below) were taken when she was 6 weeks old and show her more true to life, darker brown color and her beautiful ground covering trot.

Cedar Creek Wishing Star (DOB 3/15/06) This elegant little jennet has an outstanding pedigree being sired by our Jr. herd sire, Foxbow, and out of Tiny Bubbles, one of our former show jennets who always produces her long level croup, great legs and beautiful head. Wishing Star should stay fairly small as she was just 21.75" at birth and she comes from a long line of small donkeys. She has an outgoing, friendly temperament and she has been socialized since birth. If you are looking for a jennet with potential to be both a top show jennet and later an outstanding brood jennet, this little girl may be just what you are looking for. Visit out "Foal"  page for more photos!

This beautiful girl has been sold. The recent picture below shows her at 4 mo of age, about a month after clipping.

Cedar Creek Sonbeam

Cedar Creek Sonbeam ~ DOB 3/23/05 ~ 22" tall at birth. This little boy is NICE and he can trot!! He has the straightest of legs, front and back. His drafty build was obvious at birth, even before he was dry. He has a wide chest, short cannon bones and a compact body. You can see where he gets his pretty little head by looking at his sire and dam. His bloodlines are some of the best in the industry being sired by our red multi-champion, Merit of Breeding winner, Sonne, and out of our gorgeous red dam, Muffy, also boasts outstanding bloodlines, she being the daughter of the legendary Valintino 50th and out of a My World Buster daughter. (More photos of his sire and dam and be seen on "Our Herd" page). "Beamer" is friendly and inquisitive and has the boldness and presence about him that will command attention in the show ring. If you are looking for a show donkey and potential future herd sire with both the phenotype and the genotype to win and produce top babies, "Beamer" may be the boy you are looking for. Visit out "Foal" page for more photos!

Cedar Creek Annything Goes (DOB 3/12/05) ~ This pretty brown jennet (22" at birth) is a full sister to CCF Shamrock who has started her show career in Texas with a bang. This little girl looks to be one of the nicest jennets we have bred so far! Anny just exudes style and class. Her conformation looks to be outstanding, with short cannon bones, straight legs, both front and rear and a great topline. Her mom has one of the nicest heads we have seen and little Anny looks like she will have that stylish little head. Anny looks like she could give her two sisters (both now in Texas) a run for their money!! She has been well socialized since birth and she is friendly and outgoing.
