mules are so fun with their so big ears :) the most brave, hard-worker, nice, trustful equine family member I know :)))

[LankMcCrashnburn]

Ok Moron...the person that said that mules are work animals....You have got to be the most ignorant person to ever make a statement about mules. You need to educate yourself and in the meantime...shut up. Look at the Bishop Mule days website, Mules can do everything a horse can do...only better! You should be embarassed for your ignorance

[ClaireCaipirosco]

@LankMcCrashnburn Better? I beg to differ...

[KayScarpettaful]

Aw so cute -coughs- well that is a uhealthy enviroment. For the cute tiny mule!

[OMFGL0LWTF]

So what's a micro-mule good for anyway ? Besides being cute.

[dudefromlondon]

how can a horse be mixed with a donkey? is this the outcome?

whats the purpose of mule, can one ride it?

[Haviris]

Yes they can mix, and yes this is the result, and yes you can ride a mule. This one's a mini, so not sure what they will do w/ it (maybe train it to pull a cart).

Mules are bred for different things, pulling is common, we ride ours.

[justwatchthedamvideo]

@dudefromlondon you cant breed mules tho, they have an odd number of chromosomes or something like that

[sumawuscha123]

donkeys are very strong and tough. but as you know, they are much more difficult to deal with than the horses are.

so if you mix them (especially if the mother is the horse and the donkey the father) you get a very tough and strong, but gentle partner. :)

..or something like that anyway..

[isolatedmynde]

@dudefromlondon mules are work animals usually ... pulling carts and so forth... they are not usually ridden but can be ... i rode one as a dare in a riding class once... he was pretty good but didn't like ot jump much lmao but loved the trail riding.

horses and donkeys are basically the same... a miniature horse and donkey make this outcome a normal horse and donkey make a horse with really big ears and a thin tail.

[HorsesAreMyPassion05]

a mini mule is a cross beetween a mini horse and a mini donkey not a Small Standard donkey and a mini horse.

[akualtekefan]

adorable!

[killerswedishfish]

tehe cute

[artgoat]

Interesting! She's already got a very different gait from a horse foal.

[suitepee2008]

male donkey + female horse = Mule

female donkey + male horse = Henny

[TT90965]

they bred a mule and a horse??

[akyramoto]

they bred a miniature mare to a miniature jack ( male donkey) to get a mini mule.

mule are almost always sterile

[Stormy770]

a mule cant have babys

[TVwatchesyou]

no, they bred a male mini donkey and a female mini horse.

[Breyerlover01]

i think that mare was having a flashback from being bred, ewh. but the foal is adorable !!!

[wowzer400]

Aw! The place I work has two miniature horses that are going to have miniature mules. We are all very excited and we hope that they turn out as cute as your little one.

[CaliforniaBlonde000]
