A trio of gentle giants, with a penchant for movie roles, have a new home at Rotorua's Agrodome, one of the Ngai Tahu Tourism experiences.
Giant Clydesdales Jon Boy, Cid and Egon will soon make the move south from the North Shore's Devonport to their new home in the outskirts
of Rotorua.
The trio have clip-clopped gently around the streets of Devonport with carriages full of tourists and children for decades and will continue to show tourists the sights, this time at 350ha working sheep and cattle farm and tourist attraction the Agrodome.
The trio have never lived apart and after carrying owner Dan Duffy to his final resting place recently in Franklin, the family decided to sell Mr Duffy's beloved horses and were determined to keep the main wagon-pulling trio together.
They are over the moon that the horses are moving to a farm and will continue to work.
