Yes Frisians are considered to be a rare breed
Friesians only come in black. They are allowed a white star, nothing else.
Friesians are so expensive becasue they are pure bred. They are also rare.
Yes, all Friesians are black. I do not think there are any Friesians with any markings on record. this is correct however there used to be chestnut freisians but selective breeding led to all freisians being the beautiful rich black colour we know now
Friesians are fairly uniform in color with over 99% being born black, and that is the only color the registry will allow/ accept. However there is a tiny portion of the population that is born chestnut (red), these horses are banned from being registered as their color is not allowed. No other color is found in the breed..
Well Friesians originated in the Netherlands (Friesland) but now they are found all over the world.
Friesians
East Friesians
They originate in The Netherlands.
There is but it is very rare. Friesians are also bred to be only black so unless you specially breed if over a long period of time you probably wont get one just randomly.
They are usually used in dressage.
Friesians have black coats because they were bred to be black. The horses were used in the middle and high ages as war horses. The horses are known to be very graceful.
Friesians tend to range in a range of 15hh-17hh. (Each hand = 4 inches)
