~Herdsires~
Cannon is my great 33.5 inch driving donkey, born in 1989. He was 1996 NMDA
National Grand Champion Green Performance Donkey and sire of the 1995
NMDA National First Place Miniature Foal J-Bar Farms' Luna.
Cannon also took Reserve Hi-Point Jack at the 1997 Pacific Crest
all-miniature donkey show.
Cannon's excellent disposition and quiet manner make him a joy to
be around. He is a very dark brown bay and a color producer. Cannon is now retired
from breeding, but he will always get top billing! Color genetics:
BbAaCCdd(Ee)ggRnrn(oo)ttSS.
Cannon LOVES to pull! His favorite sport is snigging, or log pulling
as it's called down under. He also really enjoys parades and giving cart rides to
kids. Candi often donates the proceeds from cart rides to donkey welfare funds for care of
rescued donkeys in the Northwest. For lots more photos of Cannon, go to the
herdsire page.
Hickory Hill's JBF Red Sedona Sunset Click for pedigree
After a long search, the sorrel breeding program is coming back on track! Sedona is
a gorgeous dark sorrel, born 10/22/03 at only 19". Mature height 32-7/8". He
has such a soft personality and solid conformation! I didn't think I'd ever find a jack like Cannon in
disposition, but Sedona is really growing into a wonderful herdsire. His first foal crop has impressed me, with 3 of my
4 being RED foals, two from rose
dun dams. Three of the four are jennets.
Sedona's bloodlines (My World, Sunset Acres, Red Baron) should click well with the sorrel lines I
have in my jennets (Red Baron, Winchester, Lazy N) and wonderful red
babies will grace my pastures! Sedona is standing at stud at J-Bar Farms (fee $400).
For more photos of Sedona and his sire/grandsire, go to the
herdsire page.
J-Bar Farms' Kahu For Sale--Price Reduced!
Here's a fantastic little very, very dark red jack for your consideration. This little guy is a show quality son of J-Bar
Farms' Mahina Iki and Sedona and is linebred on Red Baron with My World Buster, The Fireman, Winchester sorrel genetics in the mix. His
conformation is compact and straight, with a floating trot at two days old.
Kahu's muzzle is now dark and he is a liver chestnut (photo shows more brown but he's really red!) measuring 29.5" March 2008. He is
available now to add some dazzle to your future sorrel breedings. He's a very thoughtful donkey, solid and calm in
disposition. Kahu means "guardian." Don't wait on this one! DOB 4/29/07

J-Bar Farms' Cannon's Kahuna
This amazingly sweet little gelding is full brother to J-Bar Farms' Blue Moon, J-Bar Farms' Naniloa, (see
Sold Donkeys page) and J-Bar Farms'
Momi. He is a
very dark brown bay like his sire RVB Cannon (HOF). Kahuna
will be retained at J-Bar Farms as companion for Sedona and Cannon. He has the wonderful Cannon disposition as well as his own deep
magic. Kahuna is draftier than his sire. Photo taken
July 2003, age two, height 30.5 inches.
J-Bar Farms' Maluhia For Sale--Price Reduced
Here's a great little red gelding to fall in love with. His fantastic sire, My World Vincent, stamps his babies
with that trademarked My World rear end, and Maluhia is no exception. Inquisitive, outgoing, and friendly are disposition
traits that I look for in a gelding. This boy meets those and adds straight, correct legs, attractive head, and compact
build to the mix. He's just a puppy, and follows me around the place whenever I'm out in his pasture with the horses
and other donkeys. Maluhia means "peace."
~Jennets~
Note on breeding status: I don't believe in making my jennets "baby factories."
They have one or two foals and then get a rest for a year or two. This practice extends their productive lives and protects
their general health and wellbeing. If a jennet is listed as "bred" it means she has been exposed to the jack. If
listed as "confirmed in foal" it means she was vet-checked at least 120 days from breeding and was in foal at that time.
Feather Ridge's Betsy Available with Alex, below, at special pricing
Pedigree
Betsy is a sweet, attractive jennet who carries the sorrel genetics of
her famous sire RED BARON. She is a 34" rose dun born in 1993.
She has the most correct conformation of all my foundation jennets and her daughters Mahina,
Kamalani, Kikiholo, and Hula are wonderful. Kamalani (with her sorrel daughter Makana) and Hula are available
for sale at this time.
Betsy is just a total sweetheart,
my "quinessential donkey."
Color genetics: bb(aa)CCDd(Ee)ww(rnrn)ttOO w/DnDn (dominant dun)
Betsy is resting this year and can be bred for a 2009 foal. I would consider letting her go in a package with Alex and/or Kamalani,
with a contract stating they would stay together.

straight and correct jennet and has developed into quite a sweetheart like her momma. This is
Betsy's first Cannon foal and I couldn't be
happier with Hula. I have four Betsy daughters however, so Hula is available to join
your breeding program! She's turning into quite a nice breeding jennet, and still very soft in disposition.

leggy at this point.

package with her dam Kamalani and sister Makana. Makani has been bred to Sedona for 2009 (50% chance of sorrel).
