Kinda lol. I only have 2 barns at the moment, I'm trying to merge 2 accounts so i should have 4 but i'm having issues. My barns are only 20 and 15, I don't like how i have them set out as they have everything entire crammed into one barn and my tiny 10 horse pasture.

I think sorting them into generations might be a better solution than entire and snipped.

I separate everyone into lines. I have an Inferno line. Inferno was the name of the stallion I used to start the line. I have a pastured that is named Inferno and then I have two barns. A "Inferno" barn where all the stallions who want the job of head boy are kept and then a "Inferno mares" barn where all the girls are kept until they are of age. I do the same for every line. I then have show barns and they are literally named show barn 1, show barn 2 and so on.

@Kalilm - if you have a premium upgrade, don't keep your show horses in the primary barn. It does not show automatically. Have you set the Autoshow?

@Confluence I have set the autoshow but I don't really use it. Only takes two clicks to have them finished for the week and its the best space I have for them, thanks for the advice though!

I have to admit that I have around 2000 horses in this game most of the time, and while I do sort most of my pastures by color or pattern I'm breeding for and by generation, I try to keep a mixture of ages, genders, and PT scores in each of my barns. The only exceptions are the barns I keep my adoptable horses in, the one the potential adoption horses are in, and a barn to drop horses headed for the auction in.

When I want to sort horses for breeding purposes, I sort them using a search tab for stallions of a certain description and a second search tab for mares to match.

I have 10 barns and gave up sorting a long time ago. I really should sort them... maybe I'll do that sometime this week

I used to have my primary for breeders, a barn for show horses, a barn for intact young stock, an older breeding horse barn and a spare

I have show barns, that I don't bother sorting much, and holding barns. One for stallions and one for young mares. Too young to go in the pastures. As soon as a mare hit's three she get placed in the generationally appropriate pasture to mature for the last month. I only do pasture breeding.

I keep my primary barn empty to use for sorting. I will move a pasture's worth of foals in there, run them through the required testing and then sort them into barns. Geldings/spays get tossed into the show barn that has room, Mares get labled by generation and thrown in the young mare barn, stallions get culled a bit more through comparison testing and those that pass get tossed in the stud barn.

I do really only run one primarly line, if you had more it might get more confusing. Hence why I stick with one line.
