Ok folks, my Show Jumping Dutchies are hitting 15 and giving me the itch to breed. I'm not breeding right this second as it's too soon imo. However, with the pregnancy stage now, I'm curious what people are doing for their breeding plans now? And does the 5 days of pregnancy still continue on (and the horse not pass on before having the foal) once the horse is retired? I usually breed at 20 days, 1 day left to age so need to figure out if that plan needs to go out the window. So yes, spill all your little breeding tricks, tips, and secrets ;)

The game will wait for mares to foal if bred the day before retiring.

yep, like Arty said you can still breed the day before they turn twenty, and they'll give birth as 21 year olds.

I think Abbey said something about leaving the foals with their mothers = not having to feed them for 5 days. :)

On new EV I breed my mares at age 19 (with 7 days til she turns 20) then again at 20 (with 7 days til she turns 21) but thats because I was afraid I'd miss a foal if Shes 21 while pregnant. But if its ok I might tweak my policy however a few missed stats on a foal probably isnt worth it to me!

Meaning, I bred the mares a little too soon, and then couldn't breed them again before they turned 21 years old. :P
