TJ and Tessa are not for sale. Please return often to follow their progress towards becoming a grown up mules.

Five Hills Tornado Joe, aka TJ, is out of Gunner's Fancy Yankee and by our first jack, Five Hills Tank. He was Tank's last foal before he died and very special to us. TJ is not for sale and will be Chester's mule.

Foaled 3/13/06, TJ was so much like Fancy's first mule foal, Maggie. She is a lovely molly living in Virginia with her owners. TJ will be about 16 hands based on his measurements at birth and on previous foals from this same cross.

Five Hills Champagne Tessa is an Amber Champagne molly. See Callie's page for a little more history and photo's. Tessa's sire was also Tank. She will mature about 14.1 hands. She's a substantially built smaller mule and just right for me on the trails.

Tessa was foaled in 2005 and will begin light training in 2008 to ride.

She is registered ADMS and ICHR. She has been color tested by several labs and is only the second "Champagne" colored mule to be registered anywhere and has been the focus of several labs. Her base color was identified as bay making her an Amber Champagne color.

See Callie's page for Tessa's foal photo's

We don't consider our mules, horses and ponies a business, it's all pleasure.
