I think this topic could be included under the heading of overweight caravanners in the General section of this forum. What is the average weight of a horse? Do you need some form of enima to pass such a large animal?

Hi Colin

The average weight of a 16:2hh thoroughbred is about half a tonee.

'tonee'

Sorry - was trying to type whilst on the phone.

Actually that is the metric tonne - imperial ton slightly heavier: 1 metric tonne = 1000kg or 2200lbs (approx)

1 imperial ton = 2240lbs.

hey colin,

when we're talking of passing one wide and slow i dont think 40lb will make it any less painful !

It deff makes a difference as you will need to get the nose weight right.

 

[LMH]

Do you mean the noseweight for the nosebag?
