Shipped Cooled Semen - call for availability.

There is an additional $200 charge added to the Stud Fee for the collection and shipping charges of Cooled Semen. This $200 usually covers 2 shipments to your veterinarian or farm. But with rising fuel costs FedEx has had to raise it’s shipping charges. So depending on where you are located the shipping charges may be slightly higher. Therefore, additional shipments may require additional shipping fees. Mare or jennet owners are responsible for the shipping charges on the return of the Equitainer to Tucalota Longears Company. A Breeding Contract is available for printing from this website. Be sure to read it thoroughly and to check the correct box for the jack of your choice before submitting it together with your booking fee.
All stud fees, cooled semen collection and shipping charges must be paid prior to any semen shipments.

When choosing the proper jack to breed to your mare or jennet in pursuit of that “perfect” performance mule or donkey, there are many things to take into consideration. Conformation, temperament, beauty, brains, and trainability are of primary importance. The chosen jack should complement your mare or jennet. Providing the jack is a large standard, of good or better quality, the mule offspring should be refined, very athletic and of good size for riding. Don't be fooled into thinking you need the size of a mammoth jack, at the sacrifice of refinement and athletic ability. Mules are unique creatures of design. So by carefully choosing the right jack you have an opportunity to create a custom made mule to suit your specific needs. So what you want to do with your mule 5 years or 10 years from now has every thing to do with what jack you choose today. If you are unsure of which jack would best suit your needs, just give us a call or drop us a line and we’ll be glad to help you pick which jack would be best for your custom made mule.

Gate Farm’s Black Tie Affair or “Ace” as he is known to family and friends, is a 7 year old black jack. Ace has been VERY busy showing in Halter Classes against horses, mules and donkeys. Since starting his show career Ace has been to 45 shows. In that time he has racked up an impressive show record. He has brought home 4 Year End High Point Silver Belt Buckles, numerous trophies, 100 ribbons, engraved halters and monetary awards. Ace and his brother Ewok were the first jacks to compete against horses on their turf, play by their rules and win! They were also the first Year End High Point Grand Champion and Reserve Champion Halter Stallions to have long ears and bray!

In the interest of saving time, Gate Farm’s Black Tie Affair’s 45 show results as of June 2005 have been condensed. He accomplished all of this showing against horses, mules and donkeys. Keep in mind that Ace is only 7 years old, and will not turn 8 until later this summer. Because of the Mountain Fire and the re-building of our Temecula Facility we have not shown any of the jacks. They have been furthering their education at home driving for fun and practicing for CDE’s (Combined Driving Events). See additional photos of Ace below.
