Best Answer

You can make mules by breeding a male donkey with a female horse. but mules themselves can not reproduce. They are sterile. (99.9% of the time)

note: a hinny is the baby of a male horse and a female donkey. (also sterile)

If you want to get a good mule, you can breed different horses with horses with quality's you like, and breed donkeys with donkeys together with quality's you like. Then you can take the donkeys and horses foals and breed them together and make a "good" mule.

I don't think so. As a mule is a cross between two different species, then it is most likely to be sterile. So I guess you could breed them, but no foal would be born.

Hope this helps! :)

stallions can breed with jennies, jacks can breed with mares. mules cannot interbreed. the first pairing produces a hinny, which is a worthless animal. The jack to mare horse produces a mule.
