Max height to put to a 13.2 stallion

[Choccy1107]

Hi,
I was thinking of breeding from my 15.2 show hack mare (warmblood x riding pony). Is it absolutely ridiculous of me to wonder whether a 13.2 stallion could cover her?

Not at all, he would need to stand on a small bank /slope of some sort to cover her, or dig out an area of ground for her to stand in to create a step for him. Much safer to do on grass.

nope, know of plenty of 12.22-13.22 that will cover that height just stand her on a slope or in a ditch!

Thanks both of you, just wanted to check!

What are you wanting the foal to make height wise?

About 14.2-15hh not too bothered though as will be plenty big enough for me!

No problem at all. If you put her to a stud they will almost certainly have a service area that accommodates all relative heights ( ditch for mare to stand in if she's taller, or side pads to take the weight of a bigger stallion). If you're organising something yourself ask if the stallion serves in hand.
