Integrating 17 month filly with 3 adult horses?

[daisydoo]

May have the opportunity to move my filly to excellent grazing living out with 3 mares, would it be too risky or should I wait a year for her to mature some more? She is 14.1hh and has only been out with another yearling. I'm viewing the place shortly so can ask questions then re suitability but the move isn't urgent and could wait till next year.

Introduce them gradually, keep an eye on them and see. All of ours live together in a mixed herd ranging from yearlings to my 18 year old mare

Thank you! I'll know more after the visit, I guess it's a worry with any horse! She's not dominant but can be cheeky with the coblet, then again she wouldn't prob try it on as much with an adult or would be put in her place pretty sharpish

Would you say it's best to introduce a lower horse first or a higher horse to bond with to hopefully take under their wing?
