Vanner Mules

Vanner Mules Gypsy Vanners crossed with Donkeys don't seem to exist, so we decided to create a couple!

So we're contemplating creating 2 more Vanner Mules... Do you actually want one?

After consulting with the CSU repro center, the best way to handle it is as a breeding lease on our mares. If you want to create your own Vanner mule (or even if you just want to create your own full Gypsy Vanner foal), we are willing to allow use of our mares. So you would pay us for the use of the mare and you would cover all the expenses (stud fees, shipping, board at repro center, AI, preg checks, surrogate mare if you choose embryo transfer, foaling at the repro center). If you are interested in pursuing this, the mare lease would be 3K due in payments at AI, foaling and weaning/pick up. We would cover all transport to/from repro center, mare board at our farm, shots & worming for mare and eventual foal, foal handling until weaning. We use Colorado State University's Equine Reproduction Lab - their fee schedules are all on their website.

So, there have been some inquiries about future Gypsy Vanner mules. We would be willing to repeat the cross if the foals are pre-sold. A flat fee would get you a mule foal at weaning (with handling, etc. as we did with the first 2). Pre-payment of 50% to cover the stud fee and AI and mare care until foaling, then the remainder due at weaning/pick up. If you are interested in a 2025 mule foal, PM for price. We also have 2 other mares we could use for embryo transfer if we have enough interest.

Slight rant: Cluasa is being "flipped". She was rather dismayed about the whole auction experience and didn't show well. She is just a baby and there's really no way to prepare them for that. She went for 1/4 of what Judah weanling mules sell for. Less than 72 hours and she's already being offered for sale. So if you see "Judith" on Facebook being "rehomed" , yes, that was our baby that spent a year on Dreamhorse hoping for a private sale to a loving home. The auction was our last resort after no offers were made.

Is it odd to use their greeting pictures for their goodbye pictures? These 2 will be on the block at the Troyer Auction today. Starts at 9am MDT. They are lots #120 (Cluasa) and 141 (Auribus). We're hoping their new owners love them as much as we have.

Pictures from Sunday. We really believe in imprinting for creating curious, trusting equine companions. As you can see, Auribus is really behind his sister in the de-spooking process. They are bound for the October 7, 2023 Troyer Auction if no one snaps them up before then!

They're so shiny! Spending their days out grazing really helps them get fit and keep those growing bones and muscles moving. According to the yearling cannon bone estimates, Cluasa should finish at close to 15 hands, Auribus about 14.2. After all the early enquiries, surprised they're still here! Dreamhorse ads have been edited and renewed. They'd look great in your yard!

Both these cuties are still interested in relocating. 1 or both would look great in your pasture!
