They Do Big Business In Mini Horses AG WORLD 29-3-24 Kuczer Farms is a "one-stop shop" for anyone interested in mini horses. They sell horses and also mini driving carts, wagons, single and team harnesses, chariots and specialty harnesses.
Miniature horses weigh 200 to 300 lbs. and can pull four times their weight on good footing. They can be used for pleasure driving and also in obstacle course competitions.
"Mini's are easy for children to show and train," Linda Kuczer says. "Our two grandchildren have had a lot of fun working with them."
For Linda and her husband Tom, at Pulaski, Wisconsin, the business has become a much-loved sideline to their 90-cow dairy.
They've been successfully raising, training and selling mini horses since 1990, but in 1996 realized there was a retail demand for high quality yet affordable miniature horse equipment.
"Our specialty is driving and it has evolved beyond our expectations," Linda explains. "We originally catered to the average horse person on a more local scale, but one of our clients encouraged us to show our horses at the national level and that has exposed our horses and equipment to a much wider audience."
The Kuczers work with an Amish craftsman in Pennsylvania whose quality is outstanding.
Their sons, Adam and Bob, build a selection of wagons. The two men have developed a high level of wood and metal-working skills. They're assisted by Linda's dad, Leo Van Donsel.
"We've continued to broaden our equipment line so that we have a wider variety of two-wheeled and four-wheeled carts. We have other suppliers in Indiana, Illinois and Pennsylvania. We've also gone into supplying draft harness," Linda explains.
Cart prices start at $475, F.O.B. Kuczer's farm. Harnesses start at $288, plus shipping. Horses generally start at $500.
