All Creatures Small Farm

All Creatures Small Farm is a breeder of miniature donkeys in Stephenville, TX, serving Erath County and the Cross Timbers near Fort Worth. Jesse Patterson has been raising miniature donkeys for several years, following health screening guidelines from the American Donkey and Mule Society to support strong bloodlines.

The farm’s chores align with natural husbandry, with daily pasture turnout and careful diet management to encourage steady growth and sturdy hooves. A spacious barn with soft bedding and split-tree paddocks helps each donkey develop secure social bonds and a calm, curious nature. Regular farrier visits, vaccinations and dental checks follow local veterinary recommendations for long-term well-being.

Animals often join youth programs and community farms for supervised visits, and foals meet visitors early to foster confidence. Visitors note the gentle temperament of their animals and the farm’s quiet setting, reflecting a family’s genuine commitment to miniature livestock care.
