Michael Strodtman

Michael Strodtman, Percheron horse breeder in Bucklin, KS, serves Ford County and the Wichita area. He has been raising Percheron horses for over a decade with membership in national draft horse associations and consistent health screening for joints and respiratory function. The horses live in open pasture and receive daily handling to nurture calm temperaments before moving to sheltered paddocks.

Pastures are rotated seasonally to maintain healthy grazing, and mineral-rich alfalfa and hay supplements support steady growth throughout the year. Several of his Percheron horses have earned ribbons at county agricultural fairs for poise under draft challenges. All horses receive regular farrier care and biannual veterinary checks to ensure sound hooves and overall fitness.

Visitors may observe routines by appointment, reflecting the farm’s open approach to care. Michael draws on a family tradition of horse breeding, emphasizing sound structure and reliable disposition.
