Jesse E. Marchant

Jesse E. Marchant is a Percheron breeder in Billings, MT, Yellowstone County and the Rocky Mountain region near Bozeman. Marchant has been working with Percheron horses for several years, follows breed registry standards and ensures regular health testing for soundness. The operation maintains open pasture turnout and daily handling so foals learn to be calm around people from a young age.

The farm’s Percherons are suited for driving and light draft work, known for solid-minded temperaments and steady gaits. Their breeding stock is selected for conformation and gentle disposition, with mares and stallions evaluated for drive and bone structure. Visitors report friendly, well-socialized horses and a respectful, hands-on approach from birth through training.

Horses receive a balanced diet of forage and supplemented grains tailored by weight and workload. Breeding plans focus on matching temperament and performance traits to meet the needs of small farms and driving enthusiasts alike.
