All equids can be backed at three years but mules and donkeys, because they do not stop growing until they are five, should not be worked properly until then. That gives you about two years to school your mule under saddle (from the age of three to the age of five), whilst building up its stamina.

A jennet should be atleast 3-years old, breeding to a younger jennet is inadvisable. Her body won't fully mature until she is between 3- and 5-years old.

You should begin to breed your Jenny at about 2 to 3 years of age, at this point of time she will be at her mature size and able to carry a foal.
