In one episode in October he or the narrator said they were Norwegian,yet in the episode I just watched (11-7-16), he/the narrator said Iceland.

Both statements are true. They were developed by the Icelanders from ponies first brought there by the Norse (Norwegians)over 1000 years ago. You can find out all about them if you open the link below. They are a very interesting breed of horse.

Thanks for the link! I was interested in them because in one episode he seemed to be running out of food for them, and I had began to think that he had taken on something he couldn't handle.
