Stal Jaegersrust

In 1990 we moved into a 200 year old farmhouse in the romantic and authentic village of Oldeberkoop in southeast Friesland.

This farm owes its name "Jaegersrust" to its location in the beautiful Drents Friese Wold between the rivers Tjonger and Linde. In earlier times this farm was used to change the horses that had to pull cargo boats along the rivers on the so-called "jaegpad".

The stables and surrounding area gave us the opportunity to further our horse-loving hobby and house our animals on our own property. In 2009, after 25 years of intensively working with our own horses, a new phase in our love for these four-legged friends began. We had explored many aspects of horse husbandry and sport, but breeding was still a new area.

Searching for a race that captured our imagination, time and again we ended up with the mystique surrounding it. the only truly mini horse breed in the world the “Falabella“.

Yes………it's small, but they fill all the needs that big horses bring, except you can't ride them. After an intensive research phase, we were able to buy a limited number of high-quality mares, with which we started our breeding program, the quality of these mares has already proven itself in health, priming, and their foals. And we also hope to be able to contribute to the protection and preservation of this unique horse breed.

After living on this fine farm for 25 years, this changed in April 2016, and we moved 100 meters away to a yard with a historic coach house that has been completely renovated and adapted to our falabella horses.

Our Falabella herd has grown over the years, and the number of stables and available square footage eventually comes to an end. This prompted us to enter into a partnership with an enthusiastic Falabella family in 2021:
