Yes, Jean. We had to take our Fjord mare down to the University of Minnesota Vet Hospital several years ago and they weighed her on their scale. Right after foaling, she weighed in at 1225 Pounds! However, the weight tape showed her to be around 1000 pounds. We have found the weight tapes to be off by about 20% on Fjords.
We also welcome the newest member of our fine family of Fjords - Rokida's Draugen. We just purchased him from Ann Sigford. He's so handsome! He joins his full sister, Vedas, his half brother - Rune, his niece Vesla Mai and Pookie (no relation) as part of our herd. If it ever warms up, we hope to use him around the farm and on trail rides, and show him this summer.
