chrisprickett Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 This small herd shows up, in the wash behind my house, from time to time. I'm told that they're wild, but can't tell for sure. I do occasionally find what's left of a carcass (courtesy of the local coyotes) so I assume that they are either wild, or not watched very well by their owner. It's always nice to see them visit!

Mules are always sterile and the percentage of non-sterile hinneys is so small that it's insignificant. Donkeys, on the other hand, aren't shooting blanks and have no problems breeding. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozofprev Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 But a mule is the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse. A hinny results from a male horse and female donkey. Either way, ya have a hore horse involved. I think[:-alien] WAIT - you're right, I should have said male MULES are almost always sterile! THANKS!

Eric B Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Whoa! Is that a dirt road? We use to have those. Farms too. They've all been wiped away by highways, stop lights, McMansions, mega malls and way too many people. The few jobs that I get way out in the collar counties are a real treat to drive to. Fortunately I still have some memories of the rural life that was here when I grew up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
