Hey again guys!
I got the stick out on my yearling colt (measured on his birthday but he's almost 13 months old now) and I tagged him right at 26.50" even. According to the LB height calculator I can expect him to mature 29" to 30" tall fully grown. He was my "dream purchase" for my stallion addition - he's the newest addition to my farm being a bay-based grey medicine hat pinto (I believe he carries splash and tobiano but I will be checking for LWO before breeding) blue eyed colt who I was planning on sending off for driving training so I could enjoy him and show in local shows. He is a very refined boy and I am starting to wonder.....will he be too small to do driving?
I am about 140lbs at 5'5" (trying to lose some extra pounds) and we have an easy entry lightweight cart. The harness I have will DEFINATELY not fit him as it is WAY too big so I would have to buy a new one but that's no problem.
If he will be too small for driving, I will have to just settle on my soon-to-be gelding to be my main cart horse as he's 32.50" and I know he can do the job.
Thanks for the input!!
