About Greenfields NF Troll
Greenfields NF Troll is a very weanling gelding by Te Klein Ike out of Hiraeth Carys. He is independent, brave, inquisitive, playful and beautifully cuddly. We have several full siblings of Troll with the tallest sitting on about 14.1hh and not yet matured. Troll at birth was larger than any of them were so we are currently expecting him to grow past all his siblings and probably end up at the taller end of the 14hh range, with his father sitting on just below 15hh.
Troll has been a wonderful easy foal from day one, wanting to climb into your lap for cuddles pretty early on and brave with all new encounters. He has loved growing up with the other young foals and was quite content being left in the paddock whenever his dam needed to be seen by farrier or vet. Weaning was a breeze and he is continuing to cruise through life so far living a happy life in the bachelor herd this winter after splitting the young stock herd of 13 horses.
Troll has seen the farrier every five weeks since birth and on the his second visit he was curious about the grinder my farrier uses on the adults and we gently introduced him to it. He took to it like a duck to water and seemed to prefer it to manually rasping his feet. He will continue to see the farrier every five weeks. He is also learning to cross tie and is leading reasonably well, he quite enjoys a bath. Float loading is on the agenda in the coming weeks. Troll is fully vaccinated for Tetanus/Strangles, wormed as appropriate and have had is initial doses of the Hendra vaccine and is now available to his new home.
It is important to us that Troll goes to a home capable of guiding him to become the best version of himself as he grows up. This includes having horse friends for him to live with, extensive turnout time to develop his mind and body and a willingness to wait until he is at least 4 years old until starting him under saddle. Most important of all is that he is loved and cherished as we already do so very much ourselves.
All horses are sold under contract developed by HorseForce. We urge you to request a copy of said contract as part of your due diligence.
We welcome vet checks on our horses, and are happy to assist in facilitating such checks. We would prefer vets selected for vet checks to be within an 80km radius of Upper Orara due to time allocation as most require us to travel the horse to them. Greenfield’s Stud has a pre-existing ongoing customer relationship with Pacific Vetcare and Equine Veterinary and Dental Services (EVDS).
