Ok so I took all my lined foals so far and....put them with my bootstrap girls! I'm thinking I will take 5 girls per foundation hom special gene and 10 per het and hope I get atleast 1 or 2 that pass SBA and paper better than their parents. Thanks to my wonderful SS angelacres as well as many wonderful members of this community I have some amazing straws and ponies to utilize. I'm not sure how to deal with breeding things that may be different paper levels as some of my foundation studs are C papered and some are B papered but I want to breed even generations. Any advise?

This is what I have so far! I have 3 stallions I need to get some good babies from left so I'll have at least 6 more babies before this month is out :) They all papered better than their dams!

When using straws in my even lines I always try to breed even by both generation and paper.
So gen 1 yellow girls are usually paired with gen 1 C boys and gen 1 red girls are paired to gen 1 B boys.
My pastures are a bit different since the bonus helps the odds a bit better so I don't mind mixing yellows and reds with Cs and Bs.

Do you have any yellow girls to pair the C boys with or vise versa?
If you are trying to keep to good odds you may wish to avoid the risk of putting the C boys to red mares.

I am sure there are a bunch of us out here willing to help out with eggs or mares to brood that would match your straws as well.

Thank you Blackwyld! I will do that :) I'm a little disappointed in my ice 15 boy because I didnt get one ice 15 filly that passed SBA and papered over her dam out of 29 foals. So I'll try again later. I did seem to get quite a few nice foals and hoping for some exceptional producing HH tomorrow to pair with the B papered boys that didnt get any mares today! But I may give Shadows a few days of rest then use up the rest of the breedings and hope. Hes papered c, passed SBA all the girls I put with him passed SBA and I get zero fillies from him! I'll just use HHs to get my line started :)

@Amgr1992 I think I have a bunch of extra ex pro mares still. If you're looking for something specific, i can see what i have.

Thank you for the offer Haltanny! Not really looking for anything specific because my boys tend to be slightly flashy! I'm doing the last 3 boys in pasture one at a time to see if that will help! Get a few days on each group of mares! :)

I’m an exceptional HH hoarder as well, and would love to give/sell some to you as well.

Also the buddy chat “pointed creates” gets quite a few exceptional for sale as well. (Including 3 right now)

List of my exceptional mares if any catch your eye.

I breed evenly for my generations, but not by paper. (Unless you look at my bootstrap line)

IE I half half red foundation mares and half yellow. 3/4 of my stallions are B but some are still C. I’m switching to 2G As but still have mostly red mares.

Sure I get less intacts but you know the ones that are left are better. And auction fodder and show ponies help with $$$. So everyone does it a little different.
