Ezra Schmucker

Ezra Schmucker is a Percheron horse breeder in Edgewood, Iowa, Delaware County and the Maquoketa Valley near Dubuque. He has more than ten years of experience with Percheron horses, holds membership in the American Percheron Horse Association, and conducts routine health screenings to maintain sound breeding stock.

Foals are raised on open pastures with daily turnout and gentle handling, and breeding mares receive pasture-based feeding and regular veterinary care. His farm has produced several foals recognized at regional agricultural fairs for their balanced conformation and calm dispositions.

Clients often note his attention to individual matchings between horse and handler, reflecting a belief in thoughtful placement and long-term care. Stallions and mares share open-sided barns with deep bedding, which supports respiratory health and natural movement. Each foal’s pedigree is documented and maintained according to association guidelines, ensuring clarity for future owners.
