Talk:Jennet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Defining the term

This has been checked and confirmed to be from 1911 EB. --DanielCD 20:48, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

I revised this article today, though retaining DanielCD's work and identifying it as part of the 1911 EB, because the 1911 EB was / is not as accurate as it needs to be for someone to understand what the difference between a jennet and a mule is, and to add the alternate spellings.

[edit] British use of Jack/Jenny for male/female donkeys

The terms jack and jenny are in current british usage. There is at least one British pub called The Jack and Jenny with 2 donkeys on the pub sign and has had this name for at least 25 years (Jack and Jenny, Witham, Essex)

[edit] Cat:Donkeys

The categories for this article were edited a few days ago by an anonymous user to remove cat:donkeys but leaving cat:horses & cat:hybrid equids. Since jennets can be 100% donkey (in the U.S.) or 50% donkey (in the U.K.), cat:donkey should remain. --Lisasmall 01:32, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
