Some Questions

Alright, so I have been playing for a week or so and I am in love. However, there was a few questions that I couldn't find the answers to.

How old do horses have to be before you can show them? I am assumed 2, but I have a 2 year old that I cannot show.

How old do horses have to be to train in an arena? I thought anything over a year, but I cannot train my 2 year old horse. (The older guys are able to train)

Is there a way to increase happiness besides basic care and treats? I bought a horse that is a little on the sad side.

Best age to breed a horse? I see for a lot of studbooks they are pretty aged so I am assuming older like 15+?

Also, when a horse is for private bid what is a good price to bid? I don't want to insult the owner by doing a low price or pay twice the amount that would of been accepted.

Thanks in advance, sorry for the many questions. I swear I looked for the answers first!

1) Three years old
2) Also three years old
3) Not right now, no, just shower them with treats lol
4) I generally breed my horses after 19 - I usually just have one or two foals per mare/stallion, but horses cannot breed after 21, if that helps.
5) Generally 10k per 100 stats I think is the general accepted pricing? Might have changed since the recode since I don't generally buy horses from others lol

Hopefully that helped out some? :D If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Thanks so much! Very helpful. I think it's a good idea to wait until later for breeding. One of my Dutchies just went from N1 to N2 and he's 6 or so. He'll be something to be proud of when he's 19.

Woooo Dutchies are the best :D
