Growing up

[tashyisaudrey]

hey guys, my friend has just got a new horse. He's five, TBXid -She keeps asking me when geldings stop growing and I have no idea so thought I'd ask you guys. He's currently 15.3hh. Will he grow any more? Also when do mares stop growin?

I've known some TB geldings to have a small growth spurt past five or six.

My ID x cross is rising eight and only really stopped growing early this year.Now he seems to be growing outwards now!!.

Well eight really so would of thought maybe 16hh?? Most of it is fulling out and bulk!

Our 18hh heavy weight hunter was considered 'finished' at 9.

I have a 7yo IDxTB ive had him since April. He still seems to be filling out. My instructor told me by the time he is 8 he should have filled into his shape although he is unlikely to grow height wise any more.
