RVB Cannon (HOF) (reference sire) Click for pedigree

RVB Cannon photo 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

Sedona May 2004 photo Sedona 3 wk. photo 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 foal crops are impressive, with improvements made over their dams in smaller size and better conformation. Sedona's bloodlines (My World, Sunset Acres, Red Baron) are clicking well with the sorrel lines I have in my jennets (Red Baron, Winchester, Lazy N) and wonderful red babies 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' Cannon's Kahuna

Kahuna photo 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.

~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.

S&L's Salome Click for pedigree

Salome/Mahina Lokenani 6/10/07 photo Salome is a nice 33-5/8" sorrel jennet born 2/7/01 by 758's Tanah Merah (34" sorrel) out of 758's Joy Luck (33" brown). Salome is doing well in her Oregon home and we're enjoying her lovely disposition. She is a very sweet and soft soul (Salome means "tranquil") and a wonderful addition to the herd. Salome has been bred to Sedona for a 2010 foal.

J-Bar Farms' Mahina Iki (Little Moon) Click for pedigree

Mahina Sept. 2006 photo Here she is, the first daughter of LN JBF Red Moon born in 2000. Mahina was 22 inches tall at birth, a dark rose dun of 32.25" mature height.

She's very vigorous and healthy, with that winning Red Moon personality and carrying the sorrel gene! Kamalani has matured into a solid jennet and a cross with Sedona has produced something special See Makana's info, as this sorrel girl is also available! Circumstances dictate that Kamalani be offered for sale. Don't wait, as she is a prime young brood jennet with years of lovely foals ahead of her.

J-Bar Farms' Hula Click for pedigree
For Sale--Price Reduced!

J-Bar Farms' Hula with jennet foal 7/08 photo WoW! Gorgeous dark rose-dun Hula was born 5/3/04 out of Feather Ridge's Betsy by RVB Cannon (HOF). She is a nicely 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 a lot of Betsy’s genetics 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. Hula foaled a very dark brown bay jennet to Sedona (sorrel) on July 2, 2008. Hula is a dark rose dun in color and mature height is 33.25". She is open at this time and can be bred to Sedona for a reduced fee. Photo 9/1/06.

J-Bar Farms' Ilihia

J-Bar Farms' Ilihia 1.5 years old photo

"Ilihia" means stricken with awe or thrilled, as with beauty. I've been breeding little donkeys for 17 years, and I've never been so taken with a foal! This stunning 22" rose dun was born 5/26/05 out of Alex by My World Vincent.

(Ilihia) has such balance and strength throughout, it's difficult to pick just one great thing to say about her. This little girl has the best pelvic structure I've seen, great legs and strong clean joints.

Photo 9/1/06, 1.5 years old. This little girl is a keeper for sure! Mature height 30 inches.

J-Bar Farms' Makana
For Sale--Price Reduced

Makana 4/24/07 photo Kamalani has gifted me with Sedona's first foal on 4/23/07, and my first sorrel jennet foal! Makana means "gift, and she's a beauty, and the culmination of my sorrel dreams. I've waited 10 years for a sorrel jennet, and here she is. Available now!

J-Bar Farms' Mahina Lokenani (Beautiful Rose Moon)

Salome/Mahina Nani 6/10/07 photo I'm so pleased to present another LN JBF Red Moon daughter to the world! Born 6/8/07 (photo at two days old), Lokenani is indeed a beautiful rose in my herd. I took a chance in 2006 and hauled Salome up to eastern Washington for breeding to Red Moon on an overnight trip when her foal Maluhia was a month old. One breeding produced this graceful little girl. She will be retained in the J-Bar Farms breeding herd.
