A "Jack" is the name given to a male donkey/ass. A "Jack" is fertile.
A "Jenny" or "Jennet" is the name given to a female donkey/ass. A "Jenny" is fertile.
A "hinny" is the name given when a female donkey (Jenny) is bred to a male horse (stallion). A hinny is classified as a mule and pertains to both male and female sexes of the species (male hinnies and female hinnies).
There are some terms that were used at the turn of the century that have fallen from use.
Mule-jacks were used to produce mules (ie, they are jack donkeys bred to mares). A jennet-jack was used on jennets to produce more donkeys.
a hinnie is the offspring of a male horse and a female donkey whilst on the other hand a mule is the offspring of a female horse and a male donkey so in theory a hinnie is the same as a mule but the opposite! :) hope this helps!
