Rosie was not suppose to arrive at Half Ass Acres all the way from New York in December of 2018 along with five of her stablemates but her husband sent the wrong donkey in the dark. Her owner has been diagnosed and is being treated for a very serious illness and she decided it was time to place her donkeys in another home.  We are honored that she trusts us to give the best of care to her precious donkeys from her outstanding breeding program.

Update! Rosie foaled a dark red/brown jennet on 12/27/20 @ 11:22pm. The foal presented nose only with the two front legs folded back. Joe pushed the foal back in, straightened both legs and delivered her safely. Rosie was a trouper throughout the whole ordeal as she seemed to realize that we were helping her. Our hands were full so no birth video was taken close up but we were able to pull the footage off of our barn cams and post it on Penny's page.

Rosie has been hand bred to Southern Asspitality Miniature Donkey's outstanding dark red jack, Farmstead's Cotton Top Mounts, for a foal due first of April, 2025.


Rosie is the dam of two foals:

1) HHAA A Penny Saved, 12/27/20, Dark Brown Jennet

2) HHAA Glass Slipper, 07/16/23, Red/Brown & White Spotted Jennet, we are retaining her for our breeding program.

Sweet Pea, Punch's dam, was bred to Black n Blue, aka Bruise, our young herd sire and Punch was his first offspring. We are so excited about what he has produced for us. He and Sweet Pea have put their gene stamp on this gorgeous little girl in a very special way. We could not be any more pleased with her. Our friend in Florida, Donna, named this fantastic girl for us. Suits her since she is sweet as can be and her daddy is Bruise, the jack with the 'knock-out' punch! Thanks, Donna, we love her name!

Punch last foal was not in the correct position to be born. Our wonderful vet, Dr. Greg Harris, repositioned him (his head was folded back) and was able to deliver him. Unfortunately the baby was in the birth canal for too long of a period and he died several hours after his birth although our vet valianely attempted to save him. It was just not meant to be. Punch is doing fine and will be bred again next spring after she has had a long rest. We expect her next foal will be due in the spring of 2025....the good Lord willing.

Punch is now pastured with Goose for a foal due in 2025. Her last heat cycle was 5/24/24.

Punch is the dam of five foals:

1) HHAA Punch Drunk (Tipsy), 11/12/16, black jennet, (Sire: Zoo).

2) HHAA Infinity (Finn), 05/19/18, Very Dark Brown Jack (Gelded), (Sire: Zoo).

3) HHAA Excellente (Ex), 11/01/20, Dark Spotted Jack, (Sire: Kryptonite).

4) HHAA Punchline (Joker), 05/04/22, Masked Spotted Jack (Gelded), (Sire: Goosebumps.)

5) HHAA Fifty Seven Chevy, 09/14/23, Masked Spotted Jack, (Sire: Goosebumps) (this baby passed away shortly after birth due to being in the birth canal for too long..head was turned back)

Click MDR sign for Lady's pedigree.

Lady arrived at Half Ass Acres all the way from New York in December of 2018 along with five of her stablemates. Her owner has been diagnosed and is being treated for a very serious illness and she decided it was time to place her donkeys in another home. We are honored that she trusts us to give the best of care to her precious donkeys from her outstanding breeding program.

Here is a note from Lady's breeder: "Due to an unfortunate series of events, mainly my own less than perfect health, I decided I would no longer be breeding my donkeys. My plans were for them to retire and live out their days as pasture pets. But then it was decided I should not be spending a lot of time in the barn. I knew in all fairness to them that I needed to prepare myself to let most of them go to new homes, probably as pets. I interviewed a couple of homes, but it just didn't feel right. On days when they came in the front yard to visit me, I would see that my carefully planned breedings had produced some very nice donkeys. That combined with their depth of pedigree made me wish they could enter someone else's breeding program...but who maintained the same standards that were so important to me....who else waited until jennets were fully mature before breeding....who gave jennets a break between foalings.....who bred for conformation before color? I know there are other breeders out there, but the ones who I knew I could trust were Joe & Dayle Haworth. I had followed their breeding program for years and Dayle and I had so many of the same goals. After we talked, I knew I was making the right decision. I am so proud that she wanted to add my best to her herd, I could not ask for a better place for them to be. I will still be involved, Dayle and I will discuss breedings and my dream is to visit them when they foal. I am thrilled that these bloodlines will carry on. I no longer have to feel they are not getting the personal attention that I have been unable to provide. I still have my few older girls and they will have free run of the front yard, so I can once again spend lots of time just being with them.  Dayle & Joe....thank you from the bottom and top and middle of my heart for giving my dear donkeys a loving home and for giving me peace of mind."

              Braethorn Miniature Donkeys

We were seriously considering showing Lady but Covid put a stop to that. She is an amazing jennet and we feel she would do well on the show circuit.  We would love to do her breeder proud by showing off what an outstanding breeding program she had. But Lady has now been retired to our brood jennet band. So many donkeys...so little time!

Lady is now pastured with Goosebumps. Her last heat cycle was on 7/01/24.

Lady is the dam of the following foals:

1) Braethrone Lucky, 2014, Spotted Gelding (Sire: Mini J's Diamond & Rust);

2) HHAA Shivers, 8/29/20, Black/White Tyger Spotted Jennet (Sire: Goosebumps);

3) HHAA Indian Burn, 3/01/22, Dark Spotted Jack (Gelded) (Sire: Goosebumps);

4 (HHAA Shooting Star, 10/06/23, Black w/Small Star Jennet (Sire: Goosebumps).

Click MDR sign for Janell's pedigree! (Coming Soon)

New photos and videos will be taken of Janell when we can wash and body clip her this spring when the weather is warmer.  Janell's previous owner passed away and she came to us overweight. When we have her weight down to an acceptable size we will try to breed her later this year for a 2025 foal.  Her registered name is Janell but her last owners called her Prada so we do too.

Prada has been pastured with Feather Ridge's Red Barron since 6/19/24, for a foal due in 2025. Her last heat cyce was on 7/09/24. Red Baron is young so we don't think he has quite firgured out what to do so we may not have any Red Baron foals in 2025.

Dixie was part of a herd dispersal we helped sell for the family of a friend that suddenly passed away several years ago. Dixie has been a pet along with her best friend, Dolly, since they went to their new home. Her owner is having serious health problems and offered the girls to us. We were happy to give Dixie a home here at Half Ass Acres. We may try to breed Dixie later this year for a 2025 foal.

Luckily we were up and watching our barn cam in the bedroom and saw Dolly start her labor. We barely made it to the barn in time to move her to the foaling stall and assist with her birth. We did not take a birth video. Dolly is being the ideal first time mom and baby was up and nursing in record time. She has a fantastic spot pattern with two dark eyes with eyeliner all the way around both eyes and she has one dark ear and one white ear that resembles a bunny rabbit. Her ears are especially, extremely long. It took me forever to pick out my favorite photos and I am still not sure I picked out the best ones. Rosie has an adorable personality that makes her irresistable.

Updated photos and videos were taken on June 29th, 2023. Rosie's first foal, Tat, was castrated and weaned before he left for his new home in Arkansas.

Rosie was pastured with Andy from 7/08/24 thru 9/06/24, for her second foal due in July of 2025.


Rose is the dam of one foal:

1) HHAA Tatisfaction (Tat), 2023/01/16, Brown/Gray & White Spotted Gelding,

They don't come any cuter than this tiny toy tank! Shimmy has grown one half of an inch since we updated her papers with her height. We will update them again soon after we are sure she has stopped growing.

Photos and videos above were taken on October 7th, 2010, three days after foaling her first baby, Ten-Four (a.k.a. Roger That). Thank you to Dena Wilson for her assistance in taking Shimmy's photos.

Shimmy is so very tiny that we give her an extra long rest in between her foals. We aren't sure if this helps but we are not taking any chances.

Shimmy was ultrasounded to not be in foal for 2025. She is now recovering from the vet removing a sarcoid around her right eye.

Shimmy is the dam of the following foals:

1) HHAA Ten-Four (Roger That), 10/04/10, gray-dun gelding. (adored Half Ass Acres mascot!), (Sire: Peppercorn Jack);

2) HHAA Hypnotic (Trance), 3/31/14, brown/white spotted jack. (now residing in Colombia, South America!) (Sire: Brick);

3) HHAA ShAmy, 5/01/18, dark gray/white spotted jack, now our junior herdsire, (Sire: Kryptonite);

4) HHAA Chill Bumps (Chilly), 7/23/20, dark gray/white spotted jennet, (Sire: Goosebumps);

5) HHAA Miss Gummi Bear, 2/14/22, dark brown/gray jennet with no light points. (Sire: Goosebumps).
