The mule is a domestic equine hybrid between a donkey and a horse.It is the offspring of a male donkey (a jack) and a female horse (a mare). [1] [2] The horse and the donkey are different species, with different numbers of chromosomes; of the two possible first-generation hybrids between them, the mule is easier to obtain and more common than the hinny, which is the offspring of a male horse ...
A hinny is a domestic equine hybrid, the offspring of a male horse (a stallion) and a female donkey (a jenny). It is the reciprocal cross to the more common mule, which is the product of a male donkey (a jack) and a female horse (a mare).

Male mules (johns) are sterile, but fertile female mules (mollies) sometimes occur. [2] The different number and different structure in chromosomes makes it difficult for them to pair up properly. Donkeys have 62 chromosomes and horses have 64, so their hybrids (mules and hinnies) have 63. [2]
"In most fertile mule mares, the mare passes on a complete set of her maternal genes (i.e., from her horse/pony mother) to the foal; a female mule bred to a horse will therefore produce a 100% horse foal." With exactly two documented cases since the introduction of modern DNA testing the phrase "most fertile mule mares" is, at best, highly ...
