Travis Voelker

Travis Voelker specializes in Percheron horses in Edgewood, IL, at the heart of central Illinois near Peoria. He follows standard health and soundness evaluations along with routine veterinary checkups recommended for Percheron breeders.

Horses are raised on rolling pastures with daily turnout, barn shelter and regular farrier care, while indoor stalls with deep-bedded straw and shaded loafing areas provide comfort in every season. Foals are handled from birth, introduced to varied terrain and basic groundwork before moving into light harness training under supervision. Travis offers guided handling sessions to prospective owners, sharing insights on nutrition, housing and early training principles. Each young horse is evaluated for temperament by equine behavior professionals to support smooth transitions to new handlers. The farm maintains soft sand tracks that support conditioning and introductory driving practice for well-mannered Percherons suited to driving and light farm work.
