I was looking over a video I made when I last whent to see my mare, who is with a stallion .. any way I realesed I had some great confirmations shots of him..
what do you think, he is only 4 y/o so he has a bit of a matureing to do

Is he in with your mare?

He seems heavier in the front end than the back end. His neck and head are very large compared to the rest of him. What breed is he?

Exactly what went through my head when I saw him! His hind end is... smallish.

ditto to the above posts, but that might also be because he appears to have been clipped on his body and not on his neck, so that might make his neck look larger.

That was my first thought, but his head is still really big.

Do you have any photos of him with either his whole body clipped or his whole body not clipped?

If he were a yearling I'd say "give him time to grow into himself" As it is - he looks like someone who doesnt know a whole lot about horses cut up two or three different horses and sewed pieces of them back together to make one mis-matched horse. Yikes on that tiny little back end. Looks like it belongs to an 11hh pony while the front end belongs to a 15hh draft type. He's got an awfully long back too.
I know icelandics are meant to have large, slightly plain heads but that takes the biscuit.

lol.. ya he is Icelandic, and they have a massive front and a smaller hind.. and theese horses are growing util 5-6 y/o.. and about his head yeap I too think its not perfect and thats the only thing I find wrong with him.. he has yet to fill out nicely.. become all thicker.. and yeas my mare is with him as we speak

oh and about his hair.. he is not cliped.. he just not all shedded out of his winter coat

[gigga]

oh and really.. you think he has a long back?

[Lou3]

he has a long and weak loin, over his ribs he is quite short coupled and his wither sits quite far back, but his loin is not great for me. Its like he has been stretched a couple of inches between his last rib and his pelvis.

He is quite proud of himself, isn't he
