I would have to say that I have seen them grow taller till the age of 5
years. I believe that more weight (fat) can give the appearance that
they are taller when actually they have not grown skeletally, having
more thick fat in the neck and

Thanks for the replies received so far.
I was asking about height in the hope that my mare might make 13.3-14hhs.
She is currently 13.1hh. To be honest I worry about my weight on her I am

I have a smallish mare that is about the size of your mare and she is coming 6
in July and unfortunately, I don't think she has grown much since she was 4.
They do gain height in the withers with muscling and my warmblood seemed to get

I bought Joe when he was just coming 6. He has not gotten any taller (he's
a big guy for a Fjord, just under 14'3') but in looking at some pictures of
him, I am really shocked at how he bulked up. Not in terms of weight, he's
actually had a weight

Thanks for all your comments I am feeling slightly better. I am only 5ft 4
so not tall. Trouble is over here in UK lots of people ride tall horses and
it gets your doubting yourself and of course I want to meet my mare's needs.

I try really hard to do right by my Fjords, and now that they have pastures,
that means either keeping them off the pasture, or keeping them in grazing
muzzles for part of the time. So, I introduced the grazing muzzles. The plan
is to have them in

There is a very simple orange bucket muzzle. They
are harder to get off and chafe less, I am told. Has
anyone every tried one on a Fjord (I suspect they may
not be big enough).

Do what feels right! I'm tall (5'10+) and long legged, but I'm not
as skinny as I used to be, and I'm stronger than I used to be too! I

Hi List !
OK I admit to a little housebound today with our snowstorm, but just had to
share this in the spirit of friendly advice on the weaning process.

I like the part about the passionate caregiver.

Hi Kate,
When I was first getting Tyra (Fjord) and Star (Paso fino) used to the
muzzles (I still do this for Star), I pack fine hay in the bottom and put
one or two horse cookies in there. They are so busy getting the goodies

I had these piles of cash just laying around the house and I was

Dear Fjord List: I've been combing the internet for Fjords for sale and came
across one that I thought somebody up in the Michigan area or Northern Ohio
might be interested in.
