I have a three year old Maverick Medicine mare. I did the string test as well and it said she will be around 15.2. At 3 1/2 she is 15hh so I’m hoping that she keeps growing to get to 15.2! 🤞
Zinny giving you the side eye at the end measurement made me laugh lol "mom whyyy I'm being a good stander staaahp" And Kazi just taking it in stride lol
My guess is 15.3. Couple inches off. I hope you keep Zini! She will defiantly be tall enough for you. I'm training a percheron/TB colt to be a police horse and I did the string test on him and he's supposed to mature to be 17 hands! I don't know if I did it right so I'll probably remeasure him but he is going to be tall! He was 15.2 hands as a two year old!
@@mykill86 He is and super smart! It's gonna be hard to let him go when his training is done but I'll definitely be keeping in touch with the police unit that buys him.
@@mykill86 I actually don't own him so I can't keep him even if I wanted to. My college trains horses for mounted police work and since I'm in the training program, I was given him to train. I'm responsible for pretty much everything regarding his care except paying the bills!
haha great video...now this is making me want to try the measurements on my adult mares and see if it's accurate on them too! I've done it on young horses before but never followed up to see if they exactly matured to that height.
I was gonna do this with my horses today, and realized they’re not even in my backyard anymore. One went back to school 😢 and the other was supposed to get a friend here but instead went to my farriers house.
It worked for my young horse. When he was around 18 months to 2 years I did the string method and it said he would be about 15 hands and he's currently 15.1 at 6 years old

I agree 15 something 💁🏻♀️ Bear is 1 . We just measured him with the Weight Tape like you have . Bear is 13.2 now . God knows just what will give Us Our Heart’s desire ♥️
My guess is around 16 hands, if I ever get a foal that I’m going to raise when I’m older I’ll keep in mind about the strong test! I’ve been looking at a lot of horses but I haven’t got a lot of space to put one yet. So I’m trying to work on that but maybe it’ll work out one day.
She's gorgeous! Are you going to keep her for longer and sell her? Or keep her? I think she might go up to something like 15hh? Or 15.1hh? ( I was close! Also I'm going to a summer horse camp tomorrow! Wish me luck, very excited.
my guess is 15.2 hands!! edit: LETS GO I GOT IT RIGHTTT and i promise you all i commented before she did it. edit 2: oop after seeing the end i guess i was 1 inch off lol
Hi! I have a question, I’m getting a horse soon and it might be a 14.2 hand pony, can you still ride it when your, your height? (Idk how tall you are, you just look taller then me) lol
Yeah weight is the important thing but you do want a horse that will “take up your leg” you don’t want your legs to hang lower than your horses girth area!
Just as a personal note - whilst taking up your leg makes for an easier/more comfortable ride, it's not the be-all-end-all. I have disproportionately long legs and sometimes not even 16hh horses take up my leg (I've even been on light 17hh horses that my feet still hang below their girth area!). I'm extremely light weight and I can actually drown a 16hh horse from my height and how long my legs are. It honestly just depends how comfortably you can ride the horse - hence why viewings are so important. With my height, I know that as long as I have a horse whose neck isn't too short, that is a pretty comfortable ride for me.
Hello! I really want a horse, i love them! I want to ask my Ad if i can get one, my plan is that i will ask if i buy everything a horse needs then he has to buy me the horse(if that makes any sence). What do you think? Should i ask?🐎❤
I did this method (coronet to knee and the other one (with the shoulder and withers) and both test were accurate for my 15y mare; for my filly both tests gave me 16.2 (I wanted more 16 😅) she’s 2 now and she’s already 15.3
Ok when I saw the thumbnail with the numbers and measuring tape, let’s just say I thought she was measuring something else 😂😂 …and then I read the title
15.2 hh...OMG my guess was right, lol. I wish I had that kind of luck picking lotto numbers! I'm a coward as a rider so I'm happy on a 14.2 which I think is the height of the Arabian school horse I'm currently riding, lol. But I think I would look better on a taller horse, as she looks a little dwarfed when I'm riding her.

Not me getting out of bed at 2 a.m. just to watch this “early”…👀😂
This is how much I love your videos ❤️
That bird was trying to say something.... XD Also that poop in the end. Perfect timing. XD
Zinny giving you the side eye at the end measurement made me laugh lol "mom whyyy I'm being a good stander staaahp"
And Kazi just taking it in stride lol
Zinny just chomping down on the trailer the whole time!
Am I the only one who waits until I've seen the video to comment? Great vid! and what beautiful horses.
No, you're not.
The second time you measured her, her eyes made me crack up! She was like what the heck are you doing to me!😂
The cicadas be like: YOUR PROPERTY IS THE PROMISE LAND
Very cool demonstration! That was a great idea to test it on Kazi as well!
Lol crazy Arab learning to stand tied.... that's my gelding except he knows how to but acts like a wild horse lol. Love you and your vids Marina!

Ooh, good luck training him he sounds like an amazing colt!
@@mykill86 He is and super smart! It's gonna be hard to let him go when his training is done but I'll definitely be keeping in touch with the police unit that buys him.
@@annegulbransen3961 Thats great you will keep in touch, I couldn't imagine letting him go if I were in that position to😅
@@mykill86 I actually don't own him so I can't keep him even if I wanted to. My college trains horses for mounted police work and since I'm in the training program, I was given him to train. I'm responsible for pretty much everything regarding his care except paying the bills!
@@annegulbransen3961 Ooohh, that sounds cool well have a nice day wishing the best of luck to you and the colt!
haha great video...now this is making me want to try the measurements on my adult mares and see if it's accurate on them too! I've done it on young horses before but never followed up to see if they exactly matured to that height.
Hoping she makes it to 15.2, that would be amazing 🤩
I've been watching your channel since you started it!
I love your channel and your horses
Zinny is a gorgeous horse! I’m going to guess 15.2-15.3, but i really have no clue!
I was gonna do this with my horses today, and realized they’re not even in my backyard anymore. One went back to school 😢 and the other was supposed to get a friend here but instead went to my farriers house.
hi do you mind telling me what editing app or software you use for your vids. ps LUV your channel
I think maybe 15.2-16.2hh she's gorgeous:)) and so is Kazi ❤️
Same
Nice demo!
Awww Zinfandel is so cute
I've never seen these measuring methods before! Pretty cool! :D
I think she will be 14hh or 15hh! Love you Zinny!
Your horse is beautiful
I love Zinfandel’s name! Such a pretty name
You are gaining followers so fast
At the end Kazi just be doing her business like-
Zinny is the cutest
It worked for my young horse. When he was around 18 months to 2 years I did the string method and it said he would be about 15 hands and he's currently 15.1 at 6 years old
Not only Zara is beautiful Zinfandel is beautiful TOO ❤
I feel like somewhere between 15hh and 15.5hh. LOL
HEY! Some of my favorite, toughest, smartest horses have been....... "A 14 hand Pony!!!.... 😁

Where do u adopt your horses from?

I love your videos
I love my horse at 15.2 he is the perfect height for me! Hope yours gets to 15.2 too!
Just letting yall know that, where you measured her is in fact, not the knee…. Her knee is way higher up. Basic Horse Anatomy guys.
I agree 15 something 💁🏻♀️ Bear is 1 . We just measured him with the Weight Tape like you have . Bear is 13.2 now . God knows just what will give Us Our Heart’s desire ♥️
This is very cool! I need to try it out on Nyx. She’s 3 and was listed as 14.1 last year.
My guess is around 16 hands, if I ever get a foal that I’m going to raise when I’m older I’ll keep in mind about the strong test! I’ve been looking at a lot of horses but I haven’t got a lot of space to put one yet. So I’m trying to work on that but maybe it’ll work out one day.
She's gorgeous! Are you going to keep her for longer and sell her? Or keep her?
I think she might go up to something like 15hh? Or 15.1hh? ( I was close!
Also I'm going to a summer horse camp tomorrow! Wish me luck, very excited.
good luck
Hope you have fun!
Good luck and hope you have fun horses are the BEST!!!
She said she wanted to keep Zinny until she was a least saddle saddle trained and doesn’t plan on getting on her until she’s 4.
KEEP HER PLEASEEE
my guess is 15.2 hands!!
edit: LETS GO I GOT IT RIGHTTT
and i promise you all i commented before she did it.
edit 2: oop after seeing the end i guess i was 1 inch off lol
Are you keeping her forever???
I think maybe shes gonna get to like 15.6. I love your vids!
You’re lucky you got Zinfandel for 260 she’s so sweet

EARLYYYYYYY ILYSM AND ALEX MY LITTLE MARE JUST TURNED A YEAR Two last month I’m going to try this when she comes back from the trainer
I feel like your from the episode “HeartLand” The main character-
I did this test on two of my colts. The first one was accurate and the second one was only off by an inch
In the end its funny because you just see Kazi pooping behind you.
My mare is 12, she is sticked at 14h but measuring that lower leg is 13.2
I think Zinfendel will be somewhere in the 15 hand marks, but I have no idea!!!
My guess is 15’1-15’3 but my first guess was 15’2.
I was right! Lol! 15.2 was my guess, but I didn't comment before she was measured. Nice size. ✌️
I think about maybe like..... 15.2 hands tall 😂 Zinfandel is so pretty and sweet!! Did you get her in Texas?
She's so pretty and I'm going to guess she's going to get to about 15-16 hands
Awesome trick!! And My horse is TINY so if you get a 15 - hand horse that is awesome
Hello! I really want a horse, i love them! I want to ask my Ad if i can get one, my plan is that i will ask if i buy everything a horse needs then he has to buy me the horse(if that makes any sence). What do you think? Should i ask?🐎❤
Second. Gypsy just so you know you have helped me thru suicide. I love you soooo much.
Unfortunately, ur not second, just so you know
@@Diamondking599 i known it took me a while to type so by the time I posted it I wasn't second
5:48 Zinfandel’s face
You should keep Zinfandel
I think 16hh? That string test is cool! Very interesting...
I did this method (coronet to knee and the other one (with the shoulder and withers) and both test were accurate for my 15y mare; for my filly both tests gave me 16.2 (I wanted more 16 😅) she’s 2 now and she’s already 15.3
My guess is 15.3hh. Love your videos!
Do you plan on keeping Zinny? Or were you eventually going to re home her?
@@nathanaelanderson49 ohhhh ok that makes sense! thank you!
Ok when I saw the thumbnail with the numbers and measuring tape, let’s just say I thought she was measuring something else 😂😂 …and then I read the title
I think she's gonna be 15.2. Great video
I have a 2 year old from lost creek WY, and we did the corenet band and the Cannon bone measuring thing and got.... 16 inches... Oop
15.2!!
I guessed 15.2 - 16hh. Glad I got one right!!!
I’m guessing 15.1 at the most. Just going by 2yr old appearance, not seeing 15.2. But I could be wrong!
I think she is going to be 15.1
14.2?
I predicted she would be 16 hands ;w;
My two year old is 14hh right now, I tried the string test- it said she'd get to 15hh. Hopefully that's right cuz 15hh would be perfect
I've never heard of that trick! I may have to try it.
omg that is a perfect height
16.1 is my guess she is a big girl now!
I think she is going to be 16.5 hands but i could be wrong. PS. i haven't seen it yet while i am wrighting this. Welp i was wrong lol
15.2 hh...OMG my guess was right, lol. I wish I had that kind of luck picking lotto numbers! I'm a coward as a rider so I'm happy on a 14.2 which I think is the height of the Arabian school horse I'm currently riding, lol. But I think I would look better on a taller horse, as she looks a little dwarfed when I'm riding her.
I think she will be around 15hh or 15.4hh!
Omg I literally guessed 15.2!!
16.5
I think she might grow up to be 17 or 18hh. When she is mature
Close!
I think she's going to grow to 15.2 hands.
I guessed it right my guess was 15.2 or 14.2
I'm going guess 15.2 or 16 hh.!! Congrats
She has a cute but though right, lol i love that
15,1/15.2
I think that Zinfandel is going to be 15.2.
I guessed she was going to be 14.8-15.1 so idk maybe I am actually smart
14.3-15 hands.
16.2
I have a mare called katie she’s around 10 years and I don’t really ride her cuz she’s 12hands
I love you so much I love you so much
