A & B Mini Ranch

A & B Mini Ranch, miniature Mediterranean donkey, Estill Springs, Tennessee, is a small family operation in Franklin County and Middle Tennessee near Chattanooga. The ranch participates in recognized registry programs and ensures each animal receives regular health screenings, with clear documentation for foal pedigrees. Amanda and Brenda began breeding donkeys over ten years ago, fostering strong bloodlines through careful selection.

Donkeys live in spacious pasture paddocks that allow natural grazing and social interaction. Every foal is handled daily, encouraging a calm disposition and early training that suits therapy work or small-acre owners. The ranch’s rural setting blends historic farm practices with a personal approach to animal husbandry. Animals have access to an indoor shelter during cooler months and receive a balanced diet of quality hay supplemented with mineral blends. Their hands-on policy has earned consistent praise from local breeders and visitors who note the gentle nature of the herd.
