Fair Stud Prices
  • TomCatTomCat
    What would you consider a fair stud price for these 2 horses?

    Bring Back the Sun Stud Current Price: 650

    Do you think it's too much or too little. Why?
  • fj1482fj1482
    I think your prices are fine and I will tell you why.
    1. Stud prices really are more flexible than selling an actual horse.
    2. No matter what your stud free is you will not make enough off them to make up a big chunk of your income.
    I tend to price my boys a little on the high side for several reasons the first is because if the cost to create the foal is higher than normal, but not extravagant, people will take time to think about that foal or whether or not they really want the genes the stallion can give them.

    Thanks @fj1482 I've learned that breeding isn't quite the big thing here. I just didn't want the prices to be too high.
  • KaliImKaliIm
    As fj1482 said, stud prices are totally flexible and completely up to you! But I would maybe price both horses the same(whether you want to take it up or down is up to you) as the BBTS is an exceptionally perfect create, meaning it has the same breeding ability as the expro :D

    Hope this helped!

    I don't put stallions up public very often any more, though when my stables were smaller I would have most of them up. Now, except for stallions with very special gene combinations, I have usually priced ordinary foundations at 1hb, 2nd gens at 250. Exceptional producing foundations I price at 250 and exceptional cross, superior to sire 2nd gens at 500.

    On the other hand, when I go looking for stallions from other stables to breed to, I try to match breeding ability and AFPT with the mares I'm wanting to breed, then generally pay whatever price the stallion's owner has set quite willingly.
