James Keator

James Keator and Ivy Keator are Percheron horse breeders in East Meredith, NY, in the Catskills near Albany.

They maintain membership with the Percheron Horse Association of America and follow draft horse council guidelines for soundness evaluations. Their Percherons graze on open pastures edged by maple and oak woodlands, and foals begin daily handling at an early age to encourage gentle, trustworthy dispositions. Stable facilities include spacious stalls with straw bedding, and turnout paddocks allow horses to develop natural muscle tone and social bonds.

The farm traces its roots to generations of local homesteads, blending time-honored breeding practices with attentive health monitoring. Each horse benefits from scheduled veterinary checkups and farrier services throughout the year to ensure strong hooves and overall well-being. Foals are introduced to varied environments and family gatherings early on, fostering confident temperaments for farm chores or leisurely trail riding.
