Description
Wild Iris Farm in Bar Harbor Maine is home to four of the loveliest Shire Horses I have ever seen in my life. These horses are incredibly tall, standing well over 18 hands. You ask what a hand is in horse terminology do you? A "Hand" is a unit of measure equal to 4 inches, used to measure the height of a horse at the highest point of the withers. The number of whole hands is properly followed by a period, then the remaining height in inches. Therefore, each Shire is approximately seventy-two inches tall, only at the withers. Their heads exceed another two feet easily extending out from their very thick necks. Their hooves are at least ten to twelve inches in diameter. Their size is very overwhelming at first, but soon their sweet and in your pocket personalities diminish any fear a person might have concerning their size. They are gentle giants.
