Kathleen,

I don't have anything on hand here, but you may want to contact Dr.
Craig London, DVM at the Bishop Veterinary Hospital.  I'm not sure if
he's there now or at the Rock Creek Pack Station since it is still pack
season, but he has done some published research on mules and horses.  He
may have some values to compare to, or perhaps your vet can contact him
instead.

BTW, Bishop is on the east side of the Sierra in California (Pacific
Time).  Don't be suprised if he is real busy... the pack season may
still be going strong (at least, it was for us south of Rock Creek). 
Hope the info. helps!
