Evaluation of breeding soundness is performed similarly to the stallion. Testicular size, semen volume and total sperm per ejaculate in the jack are significantly higher than in stallions (Tibary ''et al'', 2005). Testicular ultrasonography is characterized by a large central vein and more prominent ''caput'' and ''cauda epididymis''. Ultrasonographic evaluation of the accessory sex glands is similar to that of the stallion.

Semen can be collected relatively easily using an artificial vagina (Kadir, 1980; Glatzel ''et al'', 1981). Ex-copula semen collection using imipramine/xylazine has been attempted with very limited success rate (Sghiri ''et al'', 2006).

'''Semen volume''' collected by an artificial vagina ranges from '''25 to 50ml''' in '''miniature donkeys''' (Purdy, 2005b), from '''12.5 to 40 ml in small breeds''' such as the north African donkey and from '''25 to 250 ml in large breeds'''. In some breeds (Catalonian, Poitou) the gel fraction may be very copious. Very high volumes (115 ml) have also been reported in miniature donkeys
(Purdy, 2005b).

'''Spermatogenic efficiency''' increases until six years of age, then plateaus (Nipken and Wrobel, 1997; Tibary ''et al'', 2005). The total number of spermatozoa in the ejaculate ranges from 5 to 18 billion. Total progressive motility and normal morphology are generally above 70% in normal healthy males. As in the horse, abaxial attachment of the tail is normal. Sperm abnormalities are similar to those described in horses (Miro ''et al'', 2005; Purdy, 2005b; Tibary ''et al'', 2005). Objective evaluation of donkey sperm motion parameters using computer-assisted motility analysis has been described (Miro ''et al'', 2005; Tibary ''et al'', 2005).

The effect of season (photoperiod and ambient temperature) on semen production, semen quality and libido has been investigated. '''Semen production and quality are higher during the peak of the breeding season''' but in most studies seasonal effects on these parameters are not very marked (Glatzel ''et al'', 1981; Roy ''et al'', 2003, 2004; Tibary ''et al'', 2005).
