Riley Mickelsen

Riley Mickelsen, Percheron horses, Roberts, Idaho, Jefferson County and the Snake River Plain near Idaho Falls. Mickelsen has more than a decade of experience and works with the Percheron Horse Association to follow health testing protocols and sound breeding guidelines.

The horses are raised on a family farm with daily turnout, balanced nutrition, and consistent early handling to encourage calm temperaments. Stalls are cleaned daily and paddocks rotate through lush grass when weather permits. Emphasis on gentle groundwork and trailer training helps prepare each foal for riding, driving, or farm work.

A recent buyer noted that their foal displayed a steady temperament and willingness to learn, reflecting Mickelsen’s attentive care. Mickelsen selects breeding stock based on conformation, soundness, and gentle dispositions that suit family or farm life. Observations of weekly training sessions by appointment give a clear view of horse handling and environment.
