About Hinnies
On this page are photographs of hinnies (stallion horse x donkey jennet).  These are from registration records and other photos in the ADMS archives. 

While it is said in older literature that hinnies are weaker than mules, in today's animals we do not find this to be true.  In the past, the jennets bred to stallions were often small and of lesser quality.  This would result in an inferior foal, many having large bodies and weak legs, along with other conformation faults.  Today's hinnies usually have better-bred dams, with many having Mammoth jennet dams.  The majority of hinnies are miniatures, however. 


À cette page sont les photographies des bardeaux (jennet d'âne X de cheval d'étalon). Ceux-ci sont des disques d'enregistrement et d'autres photos dans les archives d'ADMS. Tandis qu'on lui dit en littérature plus ancienne que les bardeaux sont plus faibles que des mules, dans today' ; des animaux de s nous ne trouvons pas ceci pour être vrais. Dans le passé, les jennets multipliés aux étalons étaient souvent petits et de peu de qualité. Ceci aurait comme conséquence un poulain inférieur, beaucoup avoir de grands corps et jambes faibles, avec d'autres défauts de conformation. Today' ; les bardeaux de s habituellement meilleur-ont multiplié des barrages, avec des beaucoup avoir les barrages gigantesques de jennet. La majorité de bardeaux sont des miniatures, cependant.
