This will vary be breed, sex, age etc. A formula to estimate a horse/ponies weight from Texas A&M is this.
Use a plastic measuring tape, wrap it around the pony's girth, just behind the elbow. write this number down. then measure from the point of shoulder to the point of buttock, write this number down.
Now do the following math. Girth X girth X length divide by 330= lbs.
Example 70 X 70 X 78 divide 330 =1158lbs. This is accurate to within 24 pounds.
