Chris Graber

Chris Graber raises Percheron horses in Marshfield, MO, on a family farm in Webster County and the Ozarks near Springfield. With over a decade in Percheron breeding, Chris Graber is committed to recommended health screenings and regular farrier care to support strong bloodlines. Each horse undergoes annual veterinary evaluations to ensure soundness and temperament.

Horses live in spacious paddocks with daily access to turnout and seasoned pasture, and foals are introduced early to halter training through gentle handling. The farm’s open barn design encourages close human interaction, helping young horses adapt to varied equine roles. Local 4-H members often visit to learn about draft horse care and handling, reflecting the farm’s educational focus.

They host periodic open days for community members to observe harness demonstrations and learn about sustainable farm practices. Prospective owners find each horse personable and well-grounded thanks to consistent socialization from weaning onward.
