I hit the first gen 3s of my bad to best project

In my careful pedigree line using maxing I am getting 3.1 PTs as a max. Huge leap from the .6 I got with the parents. (I did max all of them since I am doing a no-inbreeding thing at the same time which is utterly unnecessary. Just doing a single line is more sensible)

I have been fighting with inconsistency a bit on these guys. Just a ton of it in these lines.
You can see the foals here.

My stallion for bulk breeding came of age. Rather than wait for his mares I did a group of half-generation foals. They are way worse!
This is my best in pasture.

He is NOT great lol. Only 3 points better than his sire in breeding ability. Not sure this batch is even worth keeping. I will have to see how he does with the lined mares next season.

I am guessing because the maxed foals can circumvent the low-breeding penalty they are going to leave the pasture bred foals completely in the dust

How is you program doing?
