13hh cob weight

[zoon]

For anyone with a little 13hh cob who has had them on a weigh bridge, can I ask how much they weighed?

Not had mine on a weigh bridge, but I am shocked by what the weigh tape says and wondered how inaccurate it is likely to be.

He’s a stocky little thing and incredibly wide - could probably drive a bus between his front legs! Similar build to a highland pony

Mine is 12.3hh and was at one point 420kg.
She's now 380kg, very fit and looks great.

My 13.2 New Forest shows at 328kg on the tape and 385kg on the scales (same day), the tape is usually around 50kg too low.

When she was diagnosed with EMS the vet said to clip a strip out of the middle of her mane and measure round her neck as that was a good indication of healthy weight loss.

13h cob x native (Fell or Dales) and she was 400kg on vet's weighbridge carrying a little more than ideal but that was in Dec and she drops off well in winter if clipped.

Takes up the leg well!
