Cori Stava

Cori and Craig Stava are Percheron breeders in Staplehurst, NE, serving southeast Nebraska near Lincoln. They have over a decade of experience and follow American Percheron Horse Association standards, including routine health testing, genetic screening, and registration. Their herd grazes on open pastures with access to barn shelter, and foals receive daily handling and socialization to develop gentle dispositions.

The Stavas balance farm chores with careful selection of bloodlines to produce horses suited for riding, driving, light draft work, or harness events. Regular farrier visits, nutritional consultations, and routine veterinary checks help young stock grow with sturdy frames and sound hooves. Their family-run farm emphasizes low-stress handling and traditional breeding methods.

They participate in regional horse shows where their horses demonstrate steady work ethic and adaptability, and trainers appreciate their consistent temperament. Prospective owners receive detailed pedigrees and health records for each horse.
