OUR STORY
The Thirsty Burro is a family owned and operated business in Calhan, Colorado. What started as a fun idea on our little piece of land has grown into something we love sharing with others. As lifelong animal lovers, we take pride in caring for our burros. They’re truly part of the family, spoiled with daily attention, and plenty of love.​
When we’re not at events, you’ll find us out on the farm making sure our donkeys are happy and healthy. Bringing them to your celebrations isn’t just a service, it’s our way of sharing their sweet personalities and creating heartfelt, memorable experiences for you and your guests.
Why Burros?
Donkeys are naturally social, gentle, and love being around people. At The Thirsty Burro, we always bring them in pairs to ensure their happiness and comfort. They’re not just adorable they’re conversation starters, photo opportunities, and instant mood lifters.
Our Mission
To provide a unique and engaging experience that makes your event stand out. Whether it’s a wedding, birthday, corporate gathering, or special celebration, our burros bring warmth, character, and a playful twist that your guests will never forget.
