Jennet Foal (Micro) (Ivory Carrier)
Birth Height: 17" unofficial "hay" measurement
Color: Traditional Grey
Sire: Cabinwood Farm Michelangelo (Hitman), Ivory 30.5"
Dam: Copper Star Farm's Venus Queen Latifah, Black wlp
DOB: 6/10/19

Copper Star Nicholas Romanoff (Intact Jack Prospect)
Color: Spotted White Woolly (some intermittent spots)
Sire: Copper Star Farm MGFeltrinelli Editore, Woolly Spotted
Dam: Copper Star Farm Driving Mrs. Daisy, Spotted White
DOB: 2017 Spring
Price: $SOLD WENT TO WV
Roman is easy to work with. He is not aggressive. He has not had his "dude parts" drop yet but they should here in the next 6 months. If you are looking for an inexpensive semi-woolly based jack here is your chance. His mother is of a first generation pedigree (She is registered with IMDR) but his father's is extensive (ADMS) pedigree. His dam (Daisy) is known to throw bold dark spots & tyger spots.
He could be triple registered if you are willing to do the work. He could be registered ADMS - B Registry, IMDR & ACOSA. He has good conformation, good teeth and his demeanor right now is very laid back. Get him before breeding season starts April 1.

Keystone was born late in the summer 2024 / August. I have let him chill with his dam, Lucy through the winter. Copper Star is becoming known for its breeding jacks. I have many farms in the USA and Canada using our versatile jacks with extensive MDR bloodlines. Every season I pick one jack foal to keep back to see how they mature for future breeding. I could see the potential with Keystone from day 1.
Keystone is a chunk. He is staying compact with a nice head and strong bone structure. He has had several inquiries from international breeders as he matures. Keystone has a lot of red bloodlines in his pedigree. Woolly MGF lines, Texas show lines, Ass-pirin Acres, Donkette Korral, Bar 3S, spots, reds, tri-color spots, red & white spotted... Sounds like he could be your new jack!
I am very proud of all of my boys. They are my heart. I am excited to give someone this opportunity!
Keystone is available NOW! He is almost a year old and ready to go.

ChaCha came to me through a herd dispersal due to her owner's illness. The only reason she is for sale is that I have more donkeys out of this same line. She is easy to work with and can be an asset to any herd. Friendly and kind ChaCha is just perfect for the new donkey owner. Her pedigree is interesting and has some deep roots in the history of donkeys.
ChaCha's sister/progeny and her foals will continue her legacy here at Copper Star Farm.
ChaCha is in foal to Ace (34" Black & white spotted woolly) for a June foal!

Here he is! Woooeee. Cute, cute, cute. If you are looking for an extreme woolly donkey to keep as a pet here is your guy. Sweet and just being a momma's boy right now. Gosh he loves her! It is adorable.
Fiddler has a really strong bone structure. Thick! Good enough to be a jack but happier to be a future gelding. His hair is going to be ridiculous and will need lots of grooming so if that is not your thing.. move on! He will be the wooliest donkey foal that I have born this year.
I have more photos and video / pedigree upon request.
Foals are being posted as they arrive. Scroll. There is no waiting list. Foals will only be held with a secure deposit.
NEW DONKEYS ADDED 3/14! Two retired jennets available & a proven young jack.
