About Us

The Barley High Miniature Donkey Stud is set in the beautiful Suffolk countryside. We have been breeding Miniature Mediterranean Donkeys for over 10 years. Our herd sire was bred in the UK.

We specialise in the original Grey & Brown Dun Sardinian Miniature Donkeys, all breeding stock are from North American imports and all our foals are registered with the Miniature Donkey Registry of the UK, and will be eligible to apply for stud book status at the age of 3 years.

Bred for temperament and conformation.

Our foals are special and we ensure they are imprinted from birth. This means every foal is bonded to humans from a day old. We love and cuddle them, play and work with them. Training also begins early, so that our donkeys are quite happy for their feet to be lifted and inspected, together with ears or teeth.
