The Longears at Décors

    The Longears at Décors, most being donkeys in all three categorys, miniature, standard and (american) mammuth.

    You can find the wild longeared breeds under the WILD category.

    There are also some mules, most common are 'saddle mules' ie mules bred with warmbloods to produce riding mules.

    For obvious reasons the mules here cant breed - for one our john mules are castrated and for the other even if its possible its a rare thing that a molly mule give birth.
