Belgian horses are known for their strength and can typically pull or carry about 8,000 to 12,000 pounds. However, this can vary depending on the individual horse and specific training. It is important to consider the health and well-being of the horse when determining how much weight it can safely pull.
Well this would depend on the horses weight. A horse should be fed 1 % up to 3% of it's body weight. Since a Belgian typically weighs between 1800 and 2200 pounds that means the horse could be fed anything from 18 pounds to 66 pounds of feed. With a draft horse it's best to try and start at about 2.5% of the body weight in feed and then adjust up or down from there as needed.
the largest breeds of horse are the Shire which is tallest on average at 17 hands or bigger, and the heaviest is the Brabant (Not the Americanized Belgian) which can weight up to 3,000 pounds.
I believe that the weight limit was about 100 lbs. give or take a few pounds.
a draft horse, yes most likely a Clydesdale or Belgian Work horse, but on a strength per size ratio, the little Shetland pony can pull twice it's own weight. Compared to the larger draft breeds which on average can only pull about half their own weight
Typically, draft horses can pull about 6 times their own body weight. A draft can pull a lot more than an Arab.
Depending on the age, a bull can approx. pull twice its own weight!
How much a pitbull can pull will vary greatly depending on his or her size and weight and conditioning. On average, a dog can easily pull 3 times his or her weight on wheels.
Correct! A horses diet is rationed on the weight and size of the horse and how much daily exercise it does. Correct! A horses diet is rationed on the weight and size of the horse and how much daily exercise it does.
yes, but by leaning foreward with the horse you are allowing it to jump easier because you are moving with it. without moving with it, the horse does not have as much balance
