This boy really is something else! Not only is he rare, he is handsome too, with such a lovely, kind and gentle personality.
He can be head collared with ease, loves to be brushed and is happy to be clipped, even in an open paddock. I can send videos of all of this. He is so lovely to work with he will learn easily.
His sire is 60 inches (15hh) and his dam is 57 inches (14.25hh). He weighed 250kg at 6 months old and is growing into a very strong, solid adult.
With his sire being the awesome Bramoth's Estiffanulga who has quite the reputation in America and Europe for being an excellent donkey to ride he has huge promise to be a wonderful pet with a view to being ridden and pulling carts when he is old enough.
There is no reason why he couldn't do everything his Sire does .... Western, as well as classical training principles, such as the ability to cross different terrain, open gates, rein back, stand quietly, pick things up and carry them, manoeuvre in tight spaces and much more.
Hercules has already been castrated to keep that lovely gentle nature and prevent any Jack behaviour from starting, is fully vaccinated, passported and registered with The American Donkey & Jackstock Registry.
He MUST go somewhere with other equines, preferably donkeys.
I am happy to talk to you about what it's like to ride a donkey if you haven't had the pleasure of doing so yet!
