It does incredibly, thank you for taking the time to explain! I’ve kept some red/B colts only because I don’t have many blue/A babies right now but hope that will change in the coming seasons!! I have a herd of about 80 mares that are kept for showing/breeding but I’ll most likely wean those out as better mares are available. It’s kinda a slightly rough start, lol. How many months have you been playing on this server?

@arya2020, glad to hear it was helpful! Sounds like you have a good plan with your show/brood band- that's what I did with my core mares- I tried to gather as many pointed mares as I could so they'd make me money even in pasture. The beauty of this game is you can do whatever you want breeding wise! Some people breed for PTs, some people breed for color, some people go for the tallest or the shortest, heaviest or lightest. It's whatever rows your boat!

This is a pretty new server- I think it opened in... April? and I joined when it opened! I have been on the green server for over a year now so I had an idea of what I wanted (and needed) to do when this server opened up.

I also forgot to note- as my show herd builds up and gets older, I will start going through my 8,9,10 year old and look for those ponies who have leveled off. If they have leveled off and are placing in the bottom 1/2 of their classes, I cull those and send them to auction. I can usually get a younger and better pointed horse to replace that horse. As my 2Gs start producing more 3G horses and those 3Gs produce 4Gs and so on, I probably will start raising the minimum PT requirements for a homebred to stay in my show herds.
