When choosing a sex for your model, please note that 99% of male mules/hinnies are gelded due to hormone linked behavioral problems. As with horses, geldings are easier to handle and less prone to violence against humans and other animals. It has happened on rare occasions that mules have been able to reproduce, but fertile mules and hinnies are strongly discouraged in ELES and stud mules OVER the age of 1 year are not permitted either. A male donkey is called a “Jack” if ungelded A male mule is called a “Stud mule” if ungelded A gelded male donkey is called a “John “ in ELES A gelded mule/hinny is called a “John” in ELES (or “Horse Mule” in the ADMS) A female donkey is called a “Jenny” or “Jennet” A female mule/hinny is called a “Molly” in ELES (or “Mare Mule” in the ADMS) A male zebra or prezwalski is called a “Stallion” if ungeldedA female zebra or prezwalski is called a “Mare” A gelded zebra or prezwalski is called a “Gelding” All Zonkeys use donkey terms (jack, john, jennet) with males considered the same as mules and gelded accordingly. All Zorses use mule terms (molly, john) with males considered the same as mules and gelded accordingly. All foals are called “Fillies” and “Colts”.
