She's got a bit of a belly, but it's winter soon, she'll lose it then!

 

[bellaboo]

She's not expecting, shes 6mths old!!!!

Must be majorly overweight then!!

 

[Jemayni]

oops

My bad, well mine is still fatter, he has love handles

She looks like a typical and perfectly healthy 6 month old foal.

 

[JoBo]

No she looks perfect to me!!! She is gorgeous, I love coloureds!!!

Nope looks fine to me

 

[TGM]

She looks fine - remember it is not the size of the belly you should be checking anyway, as that can vary from day to day according to how stuffed with fibre the horse is. The crucial areas to check are crest of neck, ribs and quarters. Ribs should be easy to feel but not visible.

 

[meandmyself]

She looks spot on to me.

 

[emmajanerushton]

looks fine for a baby
better to have a bit of weight with this weather

if you can easily easily feel her ribs shes fine.
you dont want a young horse to be fat but as long as its grass belly (and shes not got a worm burden as this ca cause a pot belly) shes fine.
