Copper Star Farm Miniature & Standard Donkeys
Fairfield, Pennsylvania
There are people on Facebook Donkey Group Pages currently scamming people using my Farm name and Address. Please know this is NOT ME or my Donkeys,..
Here is HOW You can be safe and know you are getting the donkey that you want!
Always check and double check information.
----You will ALWAYS talk to a Woman... That is me.. Emily Hoponick. No one else!
----My email is and always has been emilyhoponick@hotmail.com or emily.d.hoponick@mcpsmd.net
----Any donkeys that are available will be somewhere on my website. Even then double check!
----I will NEVER pressure you into sending me money. I actually do the opposite and want you to think about your purchases AFTER VISTING THE FARM! If you can not visit ask me to Skype or Facetime! Pictures of ME are on this website.
----If you do decide to put down a deposit all of my accounts have my name and some even have a photo of ME! Zelle / Paypal / Venmo
----If anyone tries to scam you and you are UNSURE.. then CALL or Text me at 301-452-1251.
This is very upsetting to me that people are using animals to create scams. Please be careful and use your BRAIN not Impulse when making transactions. WE just want you to be safe!

Dude is a super friendly in your face kind of guy. He will make an exceptional horse companion, pack donkey, or cattle guard. He was born in the field with the sheep and currently guarding. My experience tells me that once he matures the sheep field will not be his place. Jack foals need other jobs. So, he will be looking for his new home with a JOB. He will be ACOSA registered and microchiped.
Price includes microchip, halter / lead rope, registration, worming & first trim.
He was vaccinated in utero with a 4 way vaccine.

Neo will make an exceptional horse companion. He was born in the field with the sheep and currently guarding. My experience tells me that once he matures the sheep field will not be his place.

Price includes microchip, halter / lead rope, registration, worming & first trim.
He was vaccinated in utero with a 4 way vaccine.
