I first fell in love with miniature donkeys when visiting a miniature farm some years ago. A tiny hand reared Miniature Mediterranean Donkey ran out of the shed and jumped into the arms of her owner. After meeting her and all her other donkey counterparts on the farm I knew I not only wanted to own one of these rare and unique creatures but I also wanted to breed them so others could also experience the pleasure and delight they give to all who meet or own them. At this time I also discovered the lovable miniature pony and thus our stud has developed.
All foals at Ecclestone Valley are handled from birth ensuring exceptional natures and friendly manageable pets – spending time with these babies is not a chore but is an irresistible past time. For those unaware, donkeys are an absolute delight. They are charming, endearing and docile and revel in human company giving unconditional returns of affection to their own.
We at Ecclestone Valley believe these donkeys make the perfect paddock pet and have found them to be truly life enriching.
Ecclestone Valley is situated in the picturesque Tamar Valley, just 10 minutes from the city centre of Launceston, Tasmania, Australia. We aim to keep a small stud where all stock can be given the care and attention they so rightly deserve. |
