It's a GMT thing, so they have to fulfill all the usual requirements there. Think it's 2 tokens per horse. Down at the bottom of the page.

I've done it a couple of times when I had excess colts that had papered out where I wanted them. I think probably switching RSs sexes is one of the better uses because you know, without a doubt, you're going to end up with high quality breeders.

I am on a mobile phone. I don't see the change gender:-(

Ah. Thanks:-)

You need to have many more mares than stallions, since a mare can have only 1 live cover foal per breeding season, and a stallion can have up to 50. If you have more stallions than you need, but have a colt that has exactly the look (color and or pattern) that you desire, you might want to make it a mare, to keep those genes in your line.

Castel, it's mostly an issue of ratios. You need very few stallions of each generation in your herd, and many more mares. If you have extra stallions or colts, of a high breeding quality, it could be worth it to make them mares. It is also worth pointing out that it is much easier and quicker to pinpoint the breeding quality of a stallion early, while mares are much more difficult to evaluate. None of these alone are necessarily worth spending 2 GMTs....they are pretty expensive! But it would be worth considering...and in hidden's case, it probably makes sense. She knows she will be getting top quality broodmares, some of whom will have genes that are uncommon or unusual.

Ahhh I see. Thankyou for explaining!
Anyone feel like peeking at my stables and giving me some advice lol. I have all sorts of bits and pieces, just having fun with the game nad getting used to it, but would like to learn and improve...
Is the higher gen no or lower gen no more desirable??

At your stage of playing, just collecting some bits and pieces and having fun with the game is really the best strategy. Do searches by color. If you go to the various tabs, you can actually sort by individual genes. This is one way to see what is possible in any genes you are interested in.

There is no one best way to play the game. Really. Some people have extremely strict breeding rules, Confluence Farms, for instance. Some have much looser standards. I have known players who concentrated for game years on specific colors and/or patterns. Some people want to start with foundations and work their way up the generations with horses that are completely home bred. Take your time to decide what you want to pursue. It's a game of patience, mostly.

Me, I breed a little bit of almost everything, have over 4000 horses, most of which are foundations or 2nd generations, with a few very long pedigree horses for their high PT scores. I'm terribly distractable, and start lines with a certain color, get them into the second, maybe the 3rd generation, then find myself concentrating on something else. Mainly what I enjoy most about the game is helping other players, and even having mostly low generation horses showing every week keeps my hajibuck balance pushing the limit most of the time. My daily showing bonus is just over 200,000 hbs now. All this from being a pixel pony hoarder who seldom sells or auctions horses.

Oops. I forgot which game I posting in. Those are my HaJ1 stats. In this game, my total is over 2000 horses, and I'm making a little over 114,000 hbs nightly. I think the highest generation horses I have in this game are a handful of 7th gens.

Thanks Sandy and CGS!

CGS can you pls explain uneven vs uneven?
