THE ELMS FARM is pleased to offer quality, registered miniature Mediterranean donkeys for breeding, show, pets, companions, driving or just for enjoyment.  Let us show you how a mini donkey can improve your life.  We hope you will consider us as your source for miniature donkeys.

Our breeding goal is to produce quality miniature donkeys with excellent conformation, and great dispositions, with an emphasis on sorrel, black, and dark brown miniature donkeys.  Our breed stock is carefully selected after studying each donkey's conformation, pedigree, size, color, and disposition.  This allows us to select genetically desirable donkeys, representing strong, unrelated, diverse pedigrees. Each mating is carefully planned to strengthen the genetics contributed by the parents.  Using this approach, we strive to continually improve the miniature donkey breed, especially in the sorrel, black, and dark colorations.

We have selected a very genetically diverse herd to work with. This diversity in bloodlines allows us to select the jennet and jack to improve conformation and produce the most desirable colors. Our vision is to breed donkeys with straight legs, square and balanced builds, well muscled, with perfect teeth. Temperament is important, and our donkeys are gentle and friendly. We are working towards this goal primarily with rich colors of brown, sorrel and black.
