This was such a fun day and lovely to meet Adam and show off Ben the Percheron. Everyone was so lovely and I really like seeing all the positivity here!
@@dawnmaclellan7831 I can remember various Suffolk work horses in my area ( Surry) as a kid. They weren’t nearly as heavy looking as the show horses we see today. The lighter ones looked more like Irish Draft, and I know that it was common to put a Thoroughbred stallion, to Suffolk mares, to produce a top class heavyweight hunter. I suspect that this and the mass sell off of working horses in the sixty’s, as tractors became the norm, all added to the demise of this wonderful breed.
There are far more colts born than fillies in this breed. Therefore most of them are gelded and set to work or show. It is one of the reasons the breed is endangered.
It’s sad to hear that the French are raising these horses simply to consume them. The mention of the Amish using Percherons was puzzling because here in the USA they almost entirely use Belgians and they end up in the slaughter pipeline all used up and broken down. I have absolutely no respect for the Amish.
I have 3 prior Amish horses and they are happy and healthy. My youngest mare came to me as a weanling. The Amish I know love their horses. Yes, there are those who don't care for the horses like they need to be cared for. Non Amish are also capable of horse abuse. There are good and bad within the Amish world and in the English world as well. We currently have a rescue mare who was starved and beaten for years by a man who IS NOT Amish. She is coming along physically but her mental health is another thing. I work with her every day to earn her trust. I have no respect for anyone who abuses horses or any other animal no matter who they are. What about the Big Lick, dressage, horse racing etc...I can bring receipts on the cruelty that these horses endure. Nothing the French do surprises me. Let them eat cake.
I've seen so many stories about horses used up by the Amish and sold to slaughter houses. Its so sad such big beautiful horses with cuts and whip marks all over them.
There is a horse owner I follow who has 2 horses from Amish breeders. They are both wonderful horses who were treated properly by their Amish owners. There are good and bad horse owners in ALL walks of life.
The Amish use their horses like machines and they’re not the greatest horsemen by a long shot. They’ve got horses because they have no choice, their religion dictates that they cannot use modern methods of transportation, they must use horses. That is not how you find good horse people. And abuse is going to result on a daily basis. Horses are slammed on hard pavement for their entire lives, and being made to run on pavement will result in joint damage from their hooves up to knees, shoulders (shoulder shot) hips and beyond. Then they’re sent to slaughter. That’s the difference. They use dogs in the same machine like way - puppy mills. I’ve seen Amish display absolute cluelessness with horses, while the horse has to use its own intelligence to try to understand. So spare us the excuses. Using horses the way they do is unkind, unconnected, and tragic.
I'm a lifelong horse lover, but I don't see much difference between sending horses to slaughter and sending cows, sheep and pigs. They all face the horror there in fear and pain. Lots of people call themselves animal lovers, then get pet dogs and cats. Where do they think tinned dog and cat food comes from?
Never heard of the Boulonnais,they are beautiful horses. You may think I'm crazy but eating horses is just short of cannibalism all they do for humans, they carried men into wars etc.
I felt the same in 1965 as a 19 year old newly married and saw horse meat in the Tiddles (Midwest) grocery store chain meat section. I could only think of my 5 beautiful horses at home. I left the store right quick before I vomited or passed out. 🥺
I cannot understand nor will accept anyone wanting to raise horses for food.They are beautiful animals which have been a life line in the past before cars and could become a life line in the future again
2:04 That would be a splendid sight! If anyone wants to see a young foal being handled, or has a problem with a horse. Steve Young Horsemanship covers all kinds of horses on his channel.
Beautiful horses they are my favourite breed.. Why can't the British let go of the horses head as it is pressure. That's why the horse is chucking it's head during the interveiw with the man.
He said he had 3 full brothers. That's the same genetics. So keep one a stud and geld the rest. You need mares more then you need 3 stallions with the exact same genetics.
Stallions are very hard to handle in a normal size horse so I’d assume probably not possible with a big muscular boy anytime you see a male horse In public 90% they are fixed most full males have one job and that’s reproduction
Such magnificent animals, even our Great God and Saviour, Yeshua HaMashiach will be riding a white horse at HIS Second Coming as KING of kings and LORD of lords to end the Great tribulation ...
@JulianaBlewett one day we will both know the truth of either your opinion or mine! The problem is, if I'm wrong, I've lost absolutely nothing, but have lived a good life, following godly principles in doing good and loving my neighbor as myself! If you're wrong, then you've lost everything and will spend an eternity in hell for rejecting the free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ! Probably should choose wisely, eternity is a long time to spend in hell!

@@lcsty1017 Everyone to their own I do not eat meat I knew this point would be raised fair enough. I think of the way horses have servred man before cars and I will never except them bred for food
@@susanmarston5475 I can see your point, but my point is that cattle has been bred for human sake and helped at least as much as horses have. But you never hear anyone being sentimental the same way about cows, do you. A cow can be used to plow a field for 10 years, but no one ever says "we shouldnt eat him, he was a good friend" . Why are horses so special, why should we consider them different But I eat all of them with the same sauce anyways, so I should probably just shut up, lol. I could never eat a dog or a cat, me.
I agree. No other animal has helped humanity as much as the horse. Not cows, sheep, pigs. There's just no comparison, in my eyes.. For dog food or big cats, yes, I get that.. but not for Human consumption. I would rather starve.Most of us don't eat dogs and cats any longer. And a horse's physiology is so much different than say a cow or a pig. A horse stresses out more, tosses and thrashes and often they don't d!e as quickly as other animals. There are some grueling videos, it's awful. That's how I feel about it and I'm sticking to it.

Absolutely wonderful what you are doing to showcase and preserve these beautiful animals.
That was absolutely brilliant. The fish run thats new to me. Fabulous horses, thank you
This is just so quintessential English..good proper people doing proper things.. well done
Exquisite horses! I loved the Boulonnais and Percheron buddies especially. And Mayflower. And Wally. And…. Thank you for this beautiful video!!!
Such a BEAUTY ❤❤❤❤
Beautiful horses! What's my favorite breed? ALL OF THEM! ❤
Beauties. ❤ . As you know Adam, Cumbria Heavy Horses work solely with heavies, and had 2 Suffolk fillies this year.
The Suffolk used to be very popular. It’s amazing to me how such a beautiful, versatile horse breed is almost disappeared

Majestic animals!
Absolutely magnificent creature 🐴🐎🐴🐎🐴🐎🐴
Thanks
Look at that neck! And he seems quite nice and gentle.😘
The PONY express for fish...that's kind of incredible.
Wonderful horses
Percherons were used to breed Missouri mules
The Suffolks shown here look heavier than those we see here in the USA.
Wonderful
I came to CFP last year in the hope of seeing lexy and her new foal. She was away at stud getting covered again.
Beautiful horses. Was wondering why they gelded the young Suffolk boy? I know they can be a nuisance around mares if they’re entire.
There are far more colts born than fillies in this breed. Therefore most of them are gelded and set to work or show. It is one of the reasons the breed is endangered.
@@susanbooth6793 thank you for the info, I'm intrigued how that's possible? isn't it always going to be 50/50
Ratio is 50/50.
He said he had 3 full brothers. That's the same genetics. No need to keep all of them studs.
While all mares are valuable for breeding, only the best colts are kept whole for future breeding. 90% of colts will be geldered.
Lovely! I wonder what tree you have to have for a Suffolk Punch saddle!

Cant say Ive ever managed to carry any horse, all bloody heavy :)

I have zero respect for horse eaters. It’s beyond evil. Horses are not good. Man would have nothing without them.

I imagine those big powerful horses pulling those two wheeled carts must feel like a small backpack to them.

That sure is a horse
Why is that lady holding that damn dog like it's a freaking baby?!?
The first lady

You’re talking about the stallion whilst filming the gelding
Stupid question??? Why the geldings if there are so few of this breed??
Maybe not good enough to breed from. Need quality as well as quantity.
It’s a lot of work to keep stallions.
He said he had 3 full brothers. That's the same genetics. So keep one a stud and geld the rest. You need mares more then you need 3 stallions with the exact same genetics.
Mares are the ones who produce the foals. One stallion will do to father a lot of young. Reason there’s only one breeding stallion in a wild herd
Stallions are very hard to handle in a normal size horse so I’d assume probably not possible with a big muscular boy anytime you see a male horse In public 90% they are fixed most full males have one job and that’s reproduction
👍🏻🇨🇦
A champion gelding. That’s a bit of an oxymoron
Sort of like a prize steer
Geldings have their place as well. Farmers and ordinary folk don't use stallions, so a gelding is a good ambassador for his breed.
@@juliaforsyth8332 do they have prize steers too?
@@ValC-vn5vl You bet!! And yes they do end up at the butchers. But the competition is fearse.
Why? They’re just as capable in work as a stallion is, in any breed.
Eating the horses is barbaric.
People are evil, and those remain evil until the second coming of Christ
Stop showing the people show the horse !
Most Boulonnaise in France are bred for meat and are just giant mountains of flesh. More like a Charolais bull than a horse.
Throatlatch too tight
STOP GRABBING THE HORSES FACES!
clickbait as ever which is why so few 'likes' compared to views
oh it's the poor poor underpaid farmer always bemoaning his poverty. Cant stand him
Such magnificent animals, even our Great God and Saviour, Yeshua HaMashiach will be riding a white horse at HIS Second Coming as KING of kings and LORD of lords to end the Great tribulation ...
Amen, I'm so happy to know these magnificent animals are in heaven and will be a part of our eternity❤
