Merrijane Hayes

Merrijane Hayes and Chad Hayes breed Percheron horses in Richfield, Idaho, serving Lincoln County and the central Idaho region near Pocatello. They have been raising these draft horses for many years and adhere to breed registry guidelines as well as standard health testing protocols. Their farm provides spacious pastures, regular handling, and early socialization to ensure well-adjusted horses.

The Hayes family emphasizes gentle training methods suited to draft and driving disciplines. Mares and foals share pasture time with daily oversight, and horses experience seasonal turnout and varied footing. Routine veterinary checks and farrier care support each horse’s soundness, and breeding stock undergoes conformation evaluations before selection. They occasionally participate in many local fairs and exhibitions to highlight the Percheron’s versatility and temperament.
