How big is 11hh in cm?
Assuming you're talking about the measurement for horses - it's 111.76 cm. One hand is 4 inches or 101.6 mm
What height measurement used for horses?
Horses are measured in hands. 1 Hand = 4 inches. HH or hh = Hands High. Example of a growing pony: 9HH, 9.1HH, 9.2HH, 9.3HH, 10HH, 10.1HH, 10.2HH, 10.3HH, 11HH, 11.1HH, 11.2HH, 11.3HH, 12HH
What is the size a horses?
A horse's size depends on a lot of things, but most importantly its breed. Miniature horses such as the Falabella are not intended for riding because they are far too small. The Falabella is approximately 5-6 hands high (hh). Falabellas are pets, and some have even been trained to take over the duties of guide dogs. The Shetland pony is an ageless favourite for small children. The true Shetland stands about 8-9hh, but the American Shetland (crossbred with riding ponies to make it suitable for a child's mount) stands about 11hh. A small pony as would be expected for a first mount for a young child is approximately 13hh. If an adult of average height stretched out their arm so that it was horizontal, it would just touch the pony's withers (the point where the neck joins the back, where all measurements are taken.) Any horse below 14.2hh is classified as a pony. Past that you get into horses. The Arabian horse is a very popular riding horse. It is not a particularly tall horse, usually standing around 14-15 hands. The Thoroughbred is the ultimate racing breed. Most Thoroughbreds are around 16hh. A 15-16hh horse is ideal for riding, but many of the best racehorses are around 17hh - not a comfortable size for most casual riders, but tall = long legs = long stride = speed. Draft horses usually stand about 19-20hh, but the record tallest horse stood around 21hh. As far as I know, one hand is ten centimetres.
How much can horse tack cost?
It would all depend on the brand of the tack. I think the only difference in price would be how much the girth costs coz it would obviously be slightly bigger :) Also, if the horse has not been fitted for a saddle, it might cost you a little more to get it proffesionally done! :) Tigersummer, Roan - The above answer relates to real life tack for a real horse, but on Horseisle, there is no set price for all tack. There are four stages of tack - simple, where every piece is under 10k, medium, where every piece is under 100k, high, where every piece is under 1 mill, and V.high, where every piece is at least 2 million. The height/breed/gender of your horse DOES NOT matter, so it won't cost anymore to saddle a 16hh Shire than it would for a 11hh Falabella. Hope this helps :)

How big does a horse grow?
That depents on the horse breed, a fallabella never grow as big as a Shire. A horse's final size will depend on its weight. Horses are measured in hands, with one hand being equal to approximately ten centimetres. Horses are measured from the ground to the withers, which is where the neck joins the shoulders. Very small breeds of horse are popular as pets. They are so small that they are unsuitable for riding, but some have been trained to take on the duties of guide dogs. The smallest known breed, the Falabella, can stand less than 7hh (hh means hands high). The slightly larger Shetland pony is also too small to be ridden, except by toddlers. The Shetland is usually between 9 and 11hh. A child's pony that would be seen at gymkhanas and Pony Club events is usually around 12-13hh. Any horse that stands below 14.2hh is considered a pony. A horse that can carry an adult comfortably without being too tall for them is usually around 15hh. Serious competition horses are usually taller than pleasure riding horses (16-17hh) because the increased size gives their legs better reach. This means they can run faster and jump higher. Draft horses, bred to pull heavy weights, are larger still. 'Light' draft horses, often used on farms because they can also work under saddle, are usually around 17hh. Larger draft horses can stand up to 19hh. The largest horse ever recorded was 21hh.
What is intresting about horses?
They can only breath through their nostrilsWhile many people believe horses need shoes, they are actually better off without them providing they have the right diet and care.Also, while many horses are kept in stalls, its better for them to live outside in a pasture 24/7.Horses do best when allowed to nible on grass or hay all day long. It helps their digestive system and prevents gastric ulcers.Horses can learn tricks like sit, lie down, roll over, bow, smile, yes, no, kiss, rear, hug and many more.Horses have different personalities, just like us.There is only one TRUE wild horse breed left, the Prezwalski's Horse. All other "wild" horses are actually feral- they are desendants of once domesticated horses.Most horses only have 4 gaits, the walk, jog (also called a trot), lope (or what English riders refer to as the canter), and gallop.Other horses, called gaited horses, have other gaits. Theres the running walk, the rack, the pace, the tolt, the foxtrot, and much, much more.Horses are measured in "hands" with each hand measuring 4 inches. they also have points, and each point is worth an inch. So a horse that is 10.3hh (hands high) would be 43 inches, because 4 times 10 equals 40, and then you add the 3 inches from the .3 to get 43 inches. but, if it was an inch taller, it would cycle up to 11hh, because once it reaches 10.4, the .4 means 4 inches, which equals a hand.Horses have different catagories. There is the pony, a horse that is less than 14.2 hands high. Then the normal riding horse, which is over 14.2hh, and the draft horse, which is a horse that was bred for hauling things. They are often big boned, have a lot of hair on their lower legs called feathers, and are tall -often over 17hh.Horses are also grouped into hotbloods, warmbloods and coldbloods. Coldbloods are the draft horses. Hotbloods are the fast racing horses with a lot of energy. warmbloods are the most common and are the cross between a coldblood and a hotblood. Most riding horses are warmbloods.
