We believe that the quality of the jennet to which a jack is bred is just as important, if not more so, than the quality of the jack. The maternal gene is very intense. Therefore, we breed the best jack to the best jennet in order to produce the best quality. Remember, THE PROOF IS IN THE PROGENY. Please take a good look below. Your gal just may be here!

2008 JENNETS

QM 24 KARAT GOLD

DOB: 5-7-08
STATUS: SOLD

This jennet is absolutely one of the most correct foals to be found. There is nothing to fault on this little gal. Her sire Quarter Moon Blockbuster is the 2006 ADMS Reserve National Champion, the 2008 Houston Livestock Grand Champion, and the 2008 Texas Shootout Grand Champion. Blockbuster is becoming known for the beautiful heads he is stamping on his foals. Gold's dam is Quarter Moon Gold Nugget, NMDA Champion Halter Jennet and multiple Grand Champion. Gold inherited the good width in her chest and hindquarter from both her dam and sire. She's a very well put together jennet who should do very well in the show ring as well as the breeding pasture.

LAUGHLIN'S NILA

DOB: 5-11-02
STATUS: $800 Barren Jennet

We had high hopes for Nila when we bought her as a yearling, but have been unable to get her bred since she's come of breeding age. She will make a wonderful companion animal as well as an excellent driving donkey. Her dark color would make her flashy in harness. You might even want to put her with your jack and see if nature will eventually settle her. Nila is independent but loving. You will enjoy having her around the ranch.

QM KEEPSAKE

DOB: 1-17-08
STATUS: SOLD

We are extremely proud of this little sorrel jennet. Her conformation is flawless at this young age. When she was born, the first thing I noticed was her huge dark eyes. Keepsake has the most beautiful eyes. She tracks beautifully and has great width in her chest and hindquarter. She is the daughter of Quarter Moon Ticker Tape and Sunset Acres Bette Midler. Her sire Ticker Tape is a 3-time NMDA Champion Halter Jack and Best of Breed. Her dam Bette is the mother of Quarter Moon Code Red owned by Mike and Loydene Brown of North Gate Farm. We have retained one of Bette's foals Quarter Moon Lots of Pizazz for our breeding program. Keepsake comes from a proven sire and dam as well as siblings. We love the bone on this girl. There is nothing to fault on her. She should do well in the show ring and produce quality progeny.

QM DIXIELAND BLUES

DOB: 1-10-08
STATUS: SOLD

Tiny! Tiny! Tiny! If you are looking for breeding jennets that are small...here's your gal. More importantly, Dixieland Blues has superior conformation to be this tiny. The width in her chest and between her hindlegs is what you would see in foals much taller than Blue. Her drafty build comes from her sire Quarter Moon Blockbuster. Her dam Quarter Moon Dixie is one of our finest brood jennets. We have retained two of her offspring in our breeding herd. One is Quarter Moon Elsie, NMDA Champion Halter Jennet and dam of the 2007 NMDA National Champion Jack and Best of Breed Quarter Moon Top Dollar. The other one of Dixie's foals we have retained is Quarter Moon Dixieland Band. We came desperately close to keeping this little girl too. You will notice that we don't a have problem introducing gray-dun jennets into our breeding program. We have observed through the years that many people will pass up a very fine gray-dun to purchase color with lesser conformation. We won't. A well-conformed gray-dun (especially with color in her background) is very likely to throw well-conformed color and we have proof of that within our own herd. Quarter Moon Ranch has produced 2 NMDA National Champion Jacks and Best of Breed... Quarter Moon Fistful of Dollars (2003) and Quarter Moon Top Dollar (2007). Both of those boys are out of gray-dun jennets...Quarter Moon Elsie and Cact-Ass Muffin and both boys are very dark brown. Additionally, Blue is a sweet, active and happy little girl. Don't overlook this fine gray-dun gal especially if you are looking for a smaller brood jennet. This gal is nice.

QM CARMELLA

DOB: 1-9-08

Carmella has a very friendly and affectionate temperament and should mature into a fine brood jennet.

QUARTER MOON SWEET SEPTEMBER

DOB: 9-7-03
STATUS: $1000

Sweet September's sire and dam are two very popular and proven donkeys. Her sire is Circle C Red Tape who is an NMDA National Champion Sire. Her dam Quarter Moon Elsie is herself an NMDA Champion Halter Jennet and the dam of the 2007 NMDA National Champion Jack and Best of Breed. Sweet September definitely has some good genetics behind her which also includes S.S. Red Lightening and Quarter Moon Deacon. We were surprised to see her mature height with nothing but smaller donkeys in her pedigree. We wouldn't worry too much about that. We feel that she will make a good brood jennet when bred to your smaller jack. We have not tried to breed her yet. Sweetie would also make a great driving donkey as well.

What a little darling! Small and affectionate. Her sire is Quarter Moon Deacon, NMDA Champion Halter Jack and multiple halter champion.

Her mom Quarter Moon Dixie is one of our top producers and is the dam of Quarter Moon Elsie, NMDA Champion Halter Jennet. Last year, Deacon and Dixie produced an identical foal to Bandy named Quarter Moon Dixieland Jazz. She just placed 5th at only 14 months at the Fort Worth Stock Show in a class of 22 mature jennets. Although most of Dixie's donkeys are gray-duns, we appreciate how well conformed all of them are no matter to which jack she's bred. Dixie is going on 13 years old so we would like to keep a few more of her jennets. Bandy is the definition of fine conformation and is exactly what we look for in brood and show jennets.

This is a special little girl to me. When she first stood up, she came to me rather than her mom and has never left.

Cheyenne was a lucky little gal to find her way to the home of the McCleneys. She's been shown three times in 2004 and has won ribbons in all three shows...the State Fair of Texas, TAMU Donkey & Mule Show, and the Pasadena Donkey & Mule Show. Tammy's mom Victoria has joined the fun and shown Cheyenne as well. Cheyenne got her name because according to young Jacob McCleney, she has 3 swirls on her head showing that she was kissed by angels three times. We think so too, Jacob!
