mature height Section D ?

[NeverSayNever]

I seem to be collecting welshies A larger version of Phoenix, my Section A yearling, and I seem to have 'found' each other. If you'd asked me a year ago would I have a section D Id have said no way but Ive discovered how they can grow on you

So,my question, my Section D mare turned 7 in September, she was a late foal. She is currently measuring *just*14.3hh and is in a 6ft3 rug. Do you think this is her fully mature now or could she still grow/chunk out? thanks

Mine is 4 months older and the same size. She did a whole mass of growing earlier this year and she's 'evened' up. I hope that most of the growing is done as she needed a new saddle and rugs but there may be some more to come...........

Mines a late June foal and 7 this year she's 15.1 and 5'9 ,6" depending on make but struggle with rugs due to shoulder width every things a little snug round the front

My girlie is a section d x and she is 4 and the same height and 6ft 3 in rugs.

I think generally they are done growing between 7 and 8, mine has changed so much up until the age of 8, she is now 9.
See the liver chestnut thread for pics of her from when i first got her rising 4 in May 2006 to Oct 2011

My friend brought a 15.1hh 4 year old Welsh D, he's now rising 8 and 16.3hh, she's hoping he'll stop growing soon

Mine is 7 he is 15.1H and as wide as he is tall, his rug size is 6ft 6.

I have to buy them big as to give you an example just his chest measures 1.5ft wide..!!

My boy is the same, I wanted to show him during the summer but everytime he put on condition he grew then got a little ribby lol! Anyway this is him shortly after he was gelded, at about 16mths and standing around 14.3!
