How big is your horse and how much do they weigh?

[Pidgeon]

Just being nosey and weighed Pidge on the weighbridge at yard and he's 643kg

Ok so he's 17hh and ISH but didn't expect him to be quite that heavy

 

[muffinino]

T is a 14.2 traditional coloured cob (see sig). He's around 445kg in the winter but can go up to around 480kg in summer - that's going off a weigh tape so is not 100% accurate but gives an indication of how much he can put on. He is fit with it, though, and competes/hunts/hacks for hours most weekends. ETA and is schooled or hacked in the week, too.

My horse is 17.3hh and it is estimated by the vet that he is around 700kg.

 

[LankyDoodle]

My other horse is a 15hh welsh section d (feel awful for forgetting him in the last post!) and on the weight tape last summer he got upto 640kg

He didn't look that massive... he had very little in the way of a crest, but anyway I did diet him and managed to get him down to the mid 500s for the rest of the summer. He's been in the 400s since winter, and for the first year ever, STILL looks ribby now! I'm really happy to have got on top of his weight.

16.3 and he weighs about a tonne according to my left foot.

Seriously, on a weigh tape I think he is 650kg. Need to get him to a weighbridge.....

My girl is a 15.1hh recovering anorexic Arab, she's managing her eating disorder but I daren't show her the scales or she'll stop eating again. I reckon she weighs about 420 - 430kg based on the last time she stood on my foot

 

[bex1984]

14.1hh and 440kg on the weightape (would be slightly more on a weighbridge as the weightape under-reads). Not bad though considering he was 560kg at one point!!

 

[chestnut cob]

Question a) HUGE

Question b) Too much

I didn't think Pidge was that big when I met him! Mont is about 690kg I think. He was too fat for the weightape when I got him LMAO!

 

[Lyndz]

Todd is 15 ish and weighs around 480 at the mo on a weigh tape, but is only 3 and is part shire, so has a fair bit of growing still to do, Tara is a welsh/arab 14.1 and had been overweight at 500ish, got her down to 412, but that was too thin for her, she is now a nice trim 430ish!

 

[Hovis_and_SidsMum]

Omar - 17.2HH of pure muscle - off the weigh tape
Hovis- 16.2HH of pure mischief - 560kg last time i put the tape on him.

 

[Rhiann0n]

Mine is nearly 16.2 and only about 480kg on a weigh tape. He is a very fine Australian TB, ex-racehorse

 

[PapaFrita]

PF is 15.2, built like a credit card and weighs a piddly 420kg!!!!

 

[Nari]

Mine are only weigh tape figures.

Jim is a very full up (ie I refuse to admit he's bigger

) 16.2 ID & he's 665kg. I'd bet that's understating his weight though as he has a massive neck & shoulder.

Little Un is a welsh cob, about 14.2 & 460kg.

 

[BFG]

Jameson is 18hh ISH and off the weight tape i worm him for 850kg (again pure muscle)

Brennah is 16.2hh 3/4 IDxTB recovering Laminitic so starved she is 550kg but has a very deep girth (you can see her ribs just).

 

[LCobby]

[NikkiF]

17' 1" TB x Clydesdale - 640 kg

...and this one is embarrassing

16' 2" full Clydesdale - 750 kg - yes I know she's overweight, but is 26 and not been ridden for 5 years and has been totally food orientated since I got her as a 5 yr old! She gets fat on a blade of grass and a whiff of an empty feed bag!!

 

[MerryMaker]

Gertie - 16hh Trakhener - 520kg
Crumpet - 17hh Hannovarian - 530kg
Monty - little - fat!

 

[golddustsara]

15hh connie - 450kg last time but have a feeling he's a lot more after going into the summer field.

 

[tabithakat64]

Fudge is a 14.3hh Welsh Cob and is 480kg at the moment.

[Erehwemos]

Ellie is 15.2, and last time I used the weightape she was 525 kg

 

[Annagain]

MIne's 16.2 IDx something and on the weigh tape is 632kg - starting to think he must be more than that though judging what people say about weight tapes underestimating and comparing him to other similar ones. He's got a bit of a tubby belly at the moment due to 7 days field rest on good grass - still another 7 to go until he comes off the bute and can be tried again but it'll go as soon as he's back in work.

 

[sleepingdragon10]

Lukey is a 14hh 3yr old newfie, and according to the weightape is 303kg
