Over the past few weeks we have had several requests for intact breeding jacks. Because of all these requests we have located these three intact jacks for your consideration These three jacks will remain on our Facebook and website for approximately two weeks. All of the information about these jacks has been given to us by the seller and ages from their local veterinarian.
Please send your phone number when e-mailing us with serious inquiries. If you are looking for a well bred jack for your breeding herd, please contact us. Tell us what your needs are. We are sure we will have just the right jack to add to your breeding program. We strive for quality!
SCOOBY
Scooby -
Is a 18 month old sorrel jack that is 51 1/2 inches tall. Scooby is young and growing. As you can see his conformation is outstanding with a full body and round hip. He has bred 2 mares total and no jenny's. He handles well and leads and loads like he should. He has a unique baseball size spot on his left shoulder. Scooby is a promising young jack that will be ready to go to work this spring.
BARNEY
Barney - Is a 18 month old dark gray jack that is 52 1/2 inches tall and growing. The seller assured me that Barney has had no breeding experience so far but has been raised with young filly's and he definitely has a lot of interest in them. It sure looks to us like he will make a really nice herd sire and should be ready to go when spring breeding season rolls around.
DADDIO
Daddio -
Is a two year old black jack that is 49 inches tall and growing. To be this young he already has an excellent body conformation. He has bred a few mares only and zero jenny's at this time. He has so far done this in the pasture.
THE MARE JACK PHENOMENA
Having been in the jack and jenny business for a half century, I find one common fact that we have dealt with for each and every one of these 50 years. The fact is funny in a way and very understandable in another way. Here it is! 99% of people don't want a jack on the place until 15 minutes before their mare comes in heat.
Every year in mid to late summer we purchase some very nice jacks that will breed mares. People have their mares bred and are ready to sell these jacks with no regard for the fact that next spring they once again will not have a jack to breed them to!
On the other end of this situation we purchase the jacks and offer
these jacks for sale to our customers at reduced prices until January and February of the next year. After that time we will sell them for full price. In the spring of 2017 we received 22 calls between February 15th and April 15th looking for a jack that breeds mares. (Some were almost desperate)
Point: The time to buy a mare jack is when you find one that suits you, and NOT at the last minute. Once again this process has started! From time to time we offer nice jacks at summer sale prices that will solve your mule baby problems this coming spring.
It will be interesting to see if history repeats itself once again or people finally learn their lessons. Either way we are prepared. What about you?
