Sunset Acres Red Sunset

Gender: Jack     Date of Birth: 07-06-1996    Height:  32.5”   Color: Dark Red

 
Sunset, one of the last remaining direct LCR Valintino 50th sons still producing today. Sunny has produced some outstanding offspring for us and his daughters are superb breeding stock additions; all offspring we have shown have placed high in the ribbons or earned Champion Status.

His foals have an abundance of great qualities, good leg structure, body width, wonderfully balanced up-headed conformation, great personalities and are very trainable and showy!
As a herd sire, Sunny will easily hand or pasture breed and is mannerly with the jennets & foals. 

Sunset is very trainable, actually he just does what ever you would like without much of any formal training. He has a real “sporting” personality a great donkey to be around and to work with.
His all around versatility really shines at the shows, parades, horse fairs, live
nativity, nursing homes, and even Santa’s little helper, and he does it all very willingly!
We are breeding him limitedly, therefore Sunny offspring is limited.
Sunny is now retired.

Hedrick’s JJ  A-5846

Gender: Jack     Date of Birth: 00-00-1987          Height:  32”    Color: Lt Red

 

 We leased JJ for breeding at the rip old age of 20 years, and he sired 5 foals for CBF, which were born in 2008.
JJ went back to his owner and pass over the winter of 2009/2010.
CBF retained a daughter ~ Cyder’s Star Dust
and a son ~ Cyder’s Palomino Star
We are hoping to keep JJ’s genetic attributes alive with in the breed for future generations.
 

Cyder’s Palomino Star

Gender: Jack     Date of Birth: 04-09-2008    Height: 33”    Color: Lt Red w/star

Palomino Star, is a very unique striking well built jack, with gorgeous looks and presence.
Personality is curious, sweet, and willing, and he is light and responsive.
We think he could be very interesting to show or drive as well as kind of a “do all” type donkey.
New ~ pictures (above) are showing him as a 3 year old jack.

Genetically, Palomino is very rare being the last known direct Hedrick’s JJ son available breeding and not to mention out of our treasured Bellana who is a Fireman daughter. The Hedrick’s JJ line has been a great influence to the breed and it is nice to see that there is still some access to those genetics available through our Palomino.
Many high caliber donkeys have contained Hedrick’s JJ in the lineage and we fine the JJ line to be a contributor to nice balanced body length, nice neck attachment and a showy look.
So far to date Palomino foals are all very nicely conformed with abundant personality.

Our first Palomino foal can be seen on our 2011 foals page a nice 20” black jennet.
His first foal was born..See her on our 2011 Foals (Cyder’s Black Jane)

See his..2012 foal born Justin Morgan Palomino’s second foal.

See his 2013 foals born Here.

We are sorry to report that we gelded palomino May 1, 2015 due to space limitations on the farm, but on a happy note he found a home with a great family.
