The first one was a red papered mare, so a little harder to get intacts out of, and the second was probably just bad luck. I’d say try a few more times with yellow papered mares to see if you get any luck. :)

If you’d like to look through all my foundation mares to see if there are any you’d like to breed to, I have several I won’t be using this year. Let me know if you see any you like!

RocknS, HERE is a link to a chart that shows lethal gene pairings on the Kit allele. That first mare might be a little risky (25% chance high lethal, 50% chance moderate risk, 25% chance safe cross), but the others should produce live foals. I have some RS up for brood as well HERE if any of them interest you, let me know and I can find a buddy chat to put them in at a reduced cost :)

Another thing to try to increase intact foals would be to use yellow-papered mares with a pasture bonus. Last season my yellow/C paired mares had a full pasture bonus and almost all were intact. :)

SPW Tell Me The Time

now im stuck between these two and lassie lol

Thanks!!! @lallyhop I think i will go with tell me time if thats okay?

Tell Me Its Fire

Hes perfect! Now to test lol

It's ok RocknS! You can plan breeding, but there is still a lot of luck involved. Breeding with straws or without pasture bonus often results in snipped foals, so you aren't alone! Try using at least 10 days pasture bonus on a yellow-papered mare, and you should get more foals to pass. Pasture breeding is also cheaper, so even if foals don't pass, you will get the money back sending them to auction.

Aw, shame! If you want to use more of my SPWs, I’m happy to put more up for you, but like HTRanch says, you might wanna try pasture breeding too. :)
