* Age: Foals weigh significantly less than mature horses.
* Sex: Stallions tend to be larger and heavier than mares.
* Breeding: Some lines might be bred for size, while others are bred for specific traits.
* Nutrition and Exercise: A well-nourished and regularly exercised horse will be heavier than a horse that is underfed or inactive.
Generally, a mature Arabian horse weighs between 850-1,100 pounds (386-500 kg).
However, these are just general guidelines:
* Smaller Arabians: Some Arabians, particularly those bred for endurance, might weigh less, around 800-900 pounds.
* Larger Arabians: Others, especially those bred for show, can weigh closer to 1,200 pounds.
If you have a specific Arabian horse in mind, it's best to consult with its owner or a veterinarian for an accurate weight.
