What a little love bug! Darla was only 19" tall and weighed in at 16 pounds. She is the tiniest donkey we have ever had born at Half Pint Hill and she is staying small.

Darla is the first baby born on our farm out of Half Pint Hill Future Star, 2006 Supreme World Champion Donkey and Grand Champion Jack at the World Miniature Donkey Show in Calgary, AB. She has her Daddy's rich color, beautiful white star, and loving personality.

Congratulations to Ginette, Victor, Michelle, & Scott Chambray of Nelson, B.C.


We did a double take when this guy was born...he did too when he first saw his older, little sister Darla! We have named this guy HPH Star's Legacy (aka Jr.) as he looks like his Dad. It is interesting to note that the mothers to Jr. and Darla are full sisters.





Half Pint Hill
Lone Star
aka "Boxy"

D.O.B. July 5, 2006
Color: Brown
Foal Height: 22"
Sex: Jack

Sire: Half Pint Hill Future Star
Dam: Shawmar's Capris

> view extended pedigree


Look at that star! With each baby born this year, the star has become larger. This guy made his grand entrance at around 9:30 PM. Our good neighbors, Gary & Carol, were looking after things while we made a quick trip to Tennessee to pick up KKR Hanky Panky. We had just arrived at the Celebration Show Grounds and got the call from two very excited people! All was well with Mom & baby and in all the excitement, we weren't sure if we had a jack or jennet. But who cares...baby is BEAUTIFUL and healthy!

The first time I saw him I commented on how "Boxy" he was...and so he got his nickname. This little fella has herd sire potential and we are keeping him to see how he develops.




Half Pint Hill
Star's Chico

D.O.B. August 10, 2006
Color: Spotted (blue eyes)
Foal Height: 20 1/2"
Sex: Jack

Sire: Half Pint Hill Future Star
Dam: Pearl of Half Pint Hill

> view extended pedigree


This little guy is Vic's baby! He delivered fast, never got the important nutrients through his umbilicol cord, and was very weak. I had to work night shift, so Vic and the vet spent the night giving him plasma i.v. and Mother's milk through a tube. Finally, after more than 36 hours, he was able to nurse on his own! He is filling out nicely and is always the first one to come running for attention.

Chico has very interesting markings. His cross is broken, we think he will be keeping blue eyes, and look at those dark ear tips! What a cutie!









2005 Foals

Half Pint Hill ACE

D.O.B. April 24, 2005
Color: Dark Brown
Sex: Jack

Sire: MGF Satchmo
Dam: Circle C Cinnamon

> view extended pedigree


Cinnamon has done it again...Ace is absolutely stunning!
Look at the pedigree on this guy. On his sire's side he goes back to Red Lightening, Little Motown, Valintino 50, and Luigi. On the dam's side he has Desperado of Circle C. Not only does he have great looks, he is built like a tank. We are very excited about this little guy!



Ace 9 days old

Ace 6 months old




Half Pint Hill
Willie's TALIA

D.O.B. July 24, 2005
Color: Brown
Sex: Jennet

Sire: Storybook's Willie Wonka
Dam: Shawmar's Tapestry


> view extended pedigree


Talia is the very last offspring from our original herd sire, Storybook's Willie Wonka. Willie is spending his golden years here at the farm as a gelding.
We could not be happier with this little girl! She is cute as a button and loves attention. Her pedigree goes back to original imports!
Talia is 2 days old in these pictures. It was her first day out of the barn.





2004 Foals

Half Pint Hill
Sunset

D.O.B. May 16, 2004
Color: Dark Chestnut
Sex: Jennet

Sire: MGF Bacchus
Dam: Shawmar's Tapestry

> view extended pedigree

This baby was born around 9 PM . There was a gorgeous red sunset in the sky that evening which is how she got her name. Sunset is Tapestry's first baby and we are very pleased with Sunset's conformation and very loving personality.

 

Half Pint Hill
Gino

D.O.B. July 8, 2004
Color: Black with a cross
Sex: Jack

Sire: Storybook's Willie Wonka
Dam: CoCo of Half Pint Hill

> view extended pedigree

I have been waiting 9 years for CoCo to give me another black baby with a dark muzzle and eye rings. Gino has a few white hairs on his forehead and around his nostrils which ads a bit of character to him. He gets his beautiful dished face from his dam and nice compact size from his sire.
