The general rule of thumb is that you breed a mare within 2 hands of her height which would be a stallion between 8 and 14 hands...that being said, the mare can
be bred to a much larger stallion as the foal size will be limited by the mare but, of course the results may be less predictable.
Of course the intended purpose of the foal will determine the stallion choice and the breeder needs to be realistic about their expectations. The production of horses that fall outside of the "pony" size range and are under 16 hands may have limited value in today's market where most people are fixated on height.

Repeated infractions could result in prosecution. The original Range laws are that cattle and sheep must be fenced out and that horses and pigs have to be fenced in.
