Ah....thanks for the education Jinglebob and Soapweed! It is always important to learn something every day Wink So can I interpret your answer Soapweed to be "a mule is an expensive toy" ?Exclamation


You can do about anything with a mule that you can a horse, but it is just not as easy. Sometimes we all need the mental exhuberance of a challenge. Wink Smile


I wonder if a mule could teach stubborn 4-H calves to lead like donkeys can??

I think the young cowboy on this place has the stubbornest 4-H calf in the country we could pair your mule and his calf Tarzan together and see who wins Smile. I've been helping work on the calf and so far he can lead a small boy, a mother, and a grandma........my money is on the calf. Very Happy

You just have to prove to the mule that you are smarter than he.I find that is sometimes quite humiliating. Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

mules aint really stubborn,just too smart to let some fool human cause them to hurt themselves.first thing i learned from the fella who taught me was as juan said,you have to be just a little smarter than the mule.like some people a mule will do most anything once you convince him it was his idea.
