If you have a boy horse and a girl pony can they breed?

Answer 1

Yes. Both are equines, just of a different size. It can be difficult, for the obvious reasons, but definitely is possible. No doubt it has been done in the past, and I'm sure it will continue to be done, for whatever reasons.

Answer 2

A baby horse is called a foal. Only a female horse (called a mare) can give birth to a foal. A pony is a different species of animal from a horse, so a horse can't have a pony, just like a dog can't have kittens. A male horse can be the father of a foal, but not the father of a pony.

Answer 3

Gelding is a term for a male fixed horse. The only male horse that can breed is a stallion, but colts (male horses under 3-4) can grow up to be stallions

Answer 4

Yes. If the boy horse is still a stud he can breed a very small mare. This is not a good idea because the foal is likely to be to large for the mare to foul out.

Answer 5

Geldings can not breed. Only stallions can breed. If a horse has been gelded it can not mate anymore

Answer 6

Yes, but however it may turn out looking a little like a pig or bird as mine did.

Answer 7

The term pony relates to size so while there are breeds that are all pony sized two full sized horses can produce a pony sized foal.

Answer 8

Yes
