I'm pretty much a pixel pony hoarder, and tend to keep almost anything, including foundations. However, I'm able to afford to add barns using game money fairly frequently now, since we were blessed by Ammit with the showing bonus, so I don't have to economize on space.

I confess that I currently have 533 intact foundations (far more than I ever find the time to breed). I have 169 foundation neuters. Along with them I have 1001 lined neuters and 656 lined stallions and mares.

As for my rationale, well, let's say my personal mantra is "the more horses you keep and show, the higher your daily income for the game will be." :D

[In truth, the reason is a lack of time or energy to do serious culling.]

Usually I only keep mine for a season or two. I have a few that I've held on to because they were some of my first horses in the game. This season I have very few foundations because I want to focus on my lined horses. Last season I created buckskins because I wanted to add them into my macchiato line, but I auctioned almost all of them off after I bred them. The season before last I created a bunch of dark chestnuts and dark red duns to broaden my liver lines. I only have three of those left. I guess I prefer to focus on my 2G and up horses, because I have several genes that I focus on that don't show up in foundies very often.
