Roxanne has a beautiful tiny head and a nice round rear all in a small package. Very hard to find in a spot. She is our only gray and white spotted jennet.

Roxanne was declared safe in foal with her first baby by an exterior ultrasound performed by the University of Tennessee Vet School on November 19th, 2007. Roxanne aborted the foal on January 27th, 2007, for an unknown reason. Necropsy performed on the fetus and placenta showed no abnormalites or virus. The foal was a beautiful spotted jennet that someone in Heaven apparently had their eye on. Roxanne was allowed to recover and has been bred again to PGF Peppercorn Jack for a May 4th, 2009, foal.
