Hinny

The hinny is the hybride product of a horse stallion (father) and donkey mare. A hinny is not a mule. As a hybrid hinnies are not capable of reproduction. Breeding of hinnies is far more difficult than breeding mules and are only rarely likes due to their only little advantages over the donkey, however, still they are used as pulling and/or carrying animals.
A hinny is not a mule, because it is carried out by a donkey mare, it looks only a little different from a house donkey, its voice only sounds a little different. Hinnies have a good-natured character but far not so easy like mules. Their character is more donkey like, but they are less shy than a donkey.
