Lisa and Fien are two very adorable and very rare foals! The two baby Belgian draft horses are twins and in this video, they’re only 4 days old. For those of you who do not know, Belgian draft horses are one of the strongest of the heavy breeds and can stand anywhere between 16 and 17 hands (66 and 68 inches) tall and can grow to a weight of 2,000 pounds (900 kilograms).

They are still used as working animals but have also become popular as show horses, and pleasure riding horses. Belgian horses are able to pull tremendous weights. At the National Western Stock Show in Denver, Colorado, a team of two horses in the Heavyweight class pulled 17,000 pounds a distance of 7 ft 2 in (7,700 kg a distance of 2.18 m).
