Abstrakt: The biological material was represented by a number of 86 male and 101 female offsprings from Sambata de Jos stud and 47 males and 25 females from Beclean pe Somes stud, born between 2001 and 2005. We observed by direct measurements, the evolution of withers height, thoracic perimeter and cannon-bone perimeter at the ages of 6 months, 12 months, 2 years and 3 years. We calculated the average and dispersal indices for these traits, the differences between sexes and studs using `STUDENT' test. At 6 months of age all the offspring are included in breed parameter respecting the withers height with values of 126.18-132.16 cm; 141.35-144.25 cm at 1 year of age; 145.9-154 cm at 2 years of age; and 155.35-156.9 cm at 3 years of age. The significant differences are observed at 1 year of age between the males and the females from Sambata de Jos stud, as well between the two studs. We can conclude that all the analyzed offspring belonging to the two studs are included in European Lipitzan standard breed, and the differences observed are influenced by the strain origin and welfare conditions.
