  • bad on horses back legs

  • Why's that? These horses barely look like they're having to pull. You should see a pulling contest!

  • Thanks Bob

  • Arcola, IL

  • Not really. These heavy drafts are designed to be able to pull heavy weights for long periods of time. That is why so many of them are bred to be cow-hocked, it helps prevent the joints from getting into a bind and causing injury. :D

  • This is interesting but I fail to see the logic behind pulling an engine powered piece of equipment (the mower and the swather/conditioner) with a team of horses. Anyway, those are some very nice hitches!

  • Not much if you keep them healthy and in shape...

  • So, is that a mechanically powered mower? Because it kind of sounds like it's gas powered, which would make the horses kind of redundant.

  • бедные лошадки...ну и упражь у них...пиздец просто...

  • How much hay and or grain does it take to keep a belgian fed for a year? Thank you

  • I am kinda suprised that they weren't using a sickle-bar mower. They were used before the really mechanized equipment came out. Nice team though and I wish that I could go up there to that. We used draft mules for farming up until just a few years ago.

  • I have 8 belgians :)
