    I am from England over the pond and this is so wonderful, the Suffork Punch bread is very rare. In years gone by these horses fed the nation until the tractor came along. So grateful to you Jim. The gentle giants working on the land once again. The breeding society here are making efforts to save the breed here in England.

      I've replied to a few of their videos and similar Suffolk Punch vids on UA-cam telling them about Jim and Baron. Particularly that he has frozen semen available, should they need some genetic diversity.

    Skippy always amazes me. He runs and runs. He never stops running!! I would love to know how many miles he covers in a day. You should put some kind of tracker on him and then tell us. it’s a good thing that he is on a farm. I can’t even imagine what an active dog like him would be like if he didn’t get to run like he does. He’s become as much of a part of your channel for me as the horses are.

    The threesom looks great working together so well behaved and gentle. Resting the team teaches the young Colts how to stand which is so important. It's hard when you have a list of chores to do to just stop to rest the team but you have the experience to know when they need to stop. God bless and keep safe

You see him darting about in the field. At the beginning. He’s a streak of lighting. But, the slow’s down as he tuckers out. It’s nice to see how he interacts with the horse. ❤❤❤

    The Suffolk has been a favorite of mine since I was a little girl in the midwest. I was tickled to spend a long time with a team at Kentucky Horse Park and then again at draft horse exhibitions once I moved to the pacific northwest. There is something about a three horse hitch that I love. Thank for putting us right behind them to feel as if we have the reins. These young boys are doing great. ✨

    I was amazed to see the horses kicking up some dust. Here in Western France the soil (what Brenda calls 'dirt') is somewhat clay. We had a few dry days a week ago when I was able to put the cultivator on the field, but then more rain. The Meteo is good for the week end and for next week. I may be able to catch up with you then.
    When I lived in England, in Suffolk, there was a prison nearby that used Suffolk Punches to cultivate the prison fields where they grew crops to feed the prisoners. The horses and the outdoor work was very therapeutic for the prisoners. Unfortunately a new prison regime sold the horses and bough in food from outside.

      Hollesley near Woodbridge, home of the Suffolk Punch Trust. The Prison Service decided to sell the farm and horses in 2002 and the Trust was established and by 2006 it had purchased the farm, 120 acres, stallions, mares and geldings plus the young stock. They are currently open from 10.00 until 16.00 between 4 and 6 days of the week depending on holidays etc. Currently four stallions at stud.

    I watched Skippy in a previous video with the cows. He seems to have a herding instinct. He also shadows the horses, keeping a presence to keep them together. He is active, I think because in that setting he is working. His instinct to keep the herd together.

    I watch your video again and again! So peaceful to see how you work with your horses. April 24, very cold here and we have snow this morning.

    The sound of running water at the end of the video is a wonderful sound for anyone who works with big fields 😊 and I know looks arent really that important with working horses... but thos three brothers look outstanding together ❤ Im looking forward to all the progress you can make this coming year

    Those Suffolks are beautiful and I love how well they look together. I would love to have one but I am pretty sure it won’t be this side of heaven! That is okay as the anticipation is quite exciting. In the meantime I am enjoying yours!
