    26 pages of yearlings so far. (8 pages in auction though)

    I just thought that was kinda interesting. Steady positive population growth. Then steady. Then BOOM!

    Gender ratios are interesting too... But I'm kinda embarrased by my rations. I'm a bad example....

    I know buying/selling will have an affect, but that just makes it more interesting. Maybe I'll look at bred by and not owned by next time.

    These numbers include auction ponies.

    781 snipped show ponies
    109 Studs
    732 mares

    I only have one breeding line that has an active 100 mares. I have a lot of intact show ponies that I keep for incidentals, and creating more show ponies. I can never have enough show ponies.
  • Let me see…

    I have
    3 23 year olds
    2 22 year olds
    2 21 year olds
    5 20 year olds
    16 19 year olds
    46 18 year olds
    92 17 year olds
    123 16 year olds
    159 15 year olds
    130 14 year olds
    142 13 year olds
    120 12 year olds
    170 11 year olds
    232 10 year olds (I started a couple new herds this year)
    58 9 year olds (I didn't do much breeding this year)
    200 8 year olds
    256 7 year olds
    287 6 year olds
    325 5 year olds
    368 4 year olds
    362 3 year olds
    279 2 year olds
    97 1 year olds (there will be more. I haven't started pasture breeding yet)

    I was pretty steady from my 16-11 year olds. Then when you hit my 10 year olds I added three new herds so my number went up. To even that out I didn't really breed the next year (my 9 year olds). Since then the numbers really went up. Because of secret Santa last month I had to cut down on the number of foals I kept so you see a drop there. Hopefully this month I can keep the number closer to 200-300 and not 300-400. I don't need more ponies! (But I reallyyy want them!)

    Overall my numbers are
    3474 total
    2127 show ponies
    140 stallions
    1207 mares

    This was very interesting. Thank you for encouraging me to look at my numbers!

    This was really cool to see. I also have my recipients as show animals, so I have a large group of intact females for embryo work. So it's not completely a depiction of my breeders.

    So 3 mares for 1 altered

    (Yes, I know my ratio is way out of whack. I'm going to be doing a massive cull once my pastures get cleared out. Part of my issue is I've accumulated at least 40 rank specials that are super pretty to look at, are mostly pointed, and don't necessarily fit with what I breed for, but I feel bad altering, because, you know, rank special. I also went a bit...uh, overboard... during the exceptional create event, but made a bunch of two year olds, so they're perfect, but not technically breeders yet.)
  • Hmm. Looks like I'm way behind on neutering. :D However, I have a lot of intact horses that have never been bred.

    Definitely had a couple of jumps - significant one in September (4 months ago) - I think that's when I decided to keep more of my own home-bred horses as show ponies.

    3700 neuters
    nearly 2000 mares
    450 stallions
    In fairness most of these mares are in barns showing as well as all studs. I have 350 pasture spaces.
  • So I’ve been playing roughly a year, and do not spend RL money. So this is just what I’ve been able to do on my own.

    You can see where I learned the value of keeping my snipped babies.

    120 mares
    357 show ponies

    Bred by me, owned by others;
    133

    Others have bred, I own;

    This has been helpful.

    I will now go finish culling my stallions now. I only have 8 I use for breeding.... so I’m behind.

  • In truth I have stopped breeding a lot of my intacts, now I only breed the best. I also now only breed wild bay, in w1,w10, macchiato or ice 6 and only breed livers in w8 ,w3, ice 8, or mushroom. My bootstraps now have to be higher than 11.5pt to breed. So alot are in the show barn but not spelded.

    I have been playing for almost a year. I'm a smaller barn compared to other commenters but it is interesting that you can tell when I started keeping my spelds. I have a 4/1 speld/intact ratio, and about 37% are homebred (my outside bred horses are mostly spelded show ponies). Of 495 lined horses bred by me, 99 are owned by other players... maybe I should start doing more public sales?
