 Breeding; Time of year??
Just wanna know what most of you do as regards when you start and stop breeding your horses. I tend to start in late Jan and stop around July. I presume the game time stamps in some way if a Juvenile 2yo is a fully developed or bred lately in the year making it technically a 1 1/2 year juvenile. Or have any of you found that you can breed in late november and still have a good 2yo 14 months later (Making the Juvenile realistically 14 months old) Would be great for some of you to share your opinions and experiences in this. PJ ???

 Re: Breeding; Time of year??
I breed them throughout the year whenever I can. Doesn't make any difference between breeding earlier in the year or later in my experience.

I have bred horses later in the year too if i have a horse that wins a classic i can send them to stud to cover something or get covered i have noticed though sometimes the later ones produce horses that need a few runs to get the potential up

I wanted to know if the game was coded to get the breeding done early.
