Initially the types consisted of local mares crossed with <a href=\"\/breeds\/french-ardennais\">Ardennais<\/a>, <a href=\"\/breeds\/belgian-draft\">Belgian Draft<\/a> and <a href=\"\/breeds\/swedish-ardennes\">Swedish Ardennes<\/a> animals. <\/p>\n<p>There was a large handful of different types or varieties found in the nation early in the 20th century. In 1964 a centralized studbook was established and all of the draft types were consolidated. Later, in 2013 a few of the distinct breeds branched off with their own studbooks. The breed itself is a heavy draft type, similar to that found in several of the Eastern European nations. <\/p>\n<p>As mentioned previously, this draft breed is among the few with adequate numbers. However as draft horse power is a thing of the past, their numbers are likely because they are bred for meat. Mostly exporting it to the Italian market. <\/p>\n<h3>Features<\/h3>\n<p>Average height 14.6 &#8211; 15.7 hands<\/p>\n<h3>Physique<\/h3>\n<p>Head is heavy with a straight profile<br \/>\nNeck is thick and arched<br \/>\nChest is broad<br \/>\nLegs are short and strong<br \/>\nHooves are solid<\/p>\n<h3>Traditional Colors<\/h3>\n<p>Solid <a href=\"\/colors\">colors<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Use<\/h3>\n<p>Draft work<br \/>\nAgriculture<br \/>\nMeat production<\/p>\n<h3>Helpful Links<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bioroznorodnosc.izoo.krakow.pl\/konie\/rasy\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Polish Genetic Biodiversity Programs<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>More Images<\/h3>\n<div class=\"grid-two\">\n<div class=\"grid-two-one\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/sokolsky-horse-1.webp\" alt=\"Sokolsky Horse\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"grid-two-two\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/sokolsky-horse-3.webp\" alt=\"Sokolsky Horse\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Video<\/h3>\n<div class=\"flex-video widescreen\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uGX4iouGdPM?si=BvGASDUgU55iJOUq\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex-video widescreen\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zBuHS4L7Jmo?si=kXwqbnJpC9mikoK1\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Intro In Poland called Polski Ko\u0144 Zimnokrwisty, the Polish Coldblood Horse is among the few European draft breeds that isn&#8217;t listed with low numbers in the DAD-IS.
