Honestly it just depends. Some rank specials are much more sought after than others. I had Good China’s and Bone Fire’s up for 7500 HBs for over a week, didn’t move. I finally just tossed them in auction.

@Minute, there's posts for them in the for sale and auction forum.

@HighstormFarm I have 1 mare who is 4yo and unbred, perfectly GMTable. The other 2 have been bred this season. They're 2 Champagne Fizzys and a Pieces of Eight. I'm trying to sort through and get rid of some more, but a lot of them are making up my high point show horses.

@Poppidoll thats where I'm at, trying to recoup my hbs. I had been away for while and during the last 2 weeks of June foolishly spent 5mil hbs creating horses to try and rebuild what I once had. I'm broke broke now XD

@TomCat if some are pointed you will make more in the long run just altering and putting them in your show herd. People usually like young unbred horses so they have time to save up to GMT them. RS that you pop up the daily HH rotation don't tend to sell for a lot because they are often fairly common. Ones that only show up on special occasions are often more desirable because there are fewer in the game. What genes they have is also a factor, some genes and colors are more desirable that others. If you plan on trying to make money by flipping horses you will have to keep a close eye on the market.

Now is a good time to scan the auctions for high PT foals people are auctioning to make room. They will help build a foundation to a good show herd that will provide steady income in the future.

@TomCat Really? But you should get your create price back from them all via the auction bidder? Like a refund, essentially.

Gelding / spaying won't directly impact your daily bonus immediately, just in future. Spayed / gelded horses tend to be able to train longer than intact horses.

@HighstormFarm that's actually the most sense I've been able to make of it. I've read other people's descriptions of what to do and it's confused me, but it makes a bit more sense now. Just sucks having to wait so many months to be able to cull any and get any sort of sustainable buyback from them. I had originally created so many mares to breed to build my lines back up to where they were before my break, but I screwed up and got too happy with the 2500 hb reroll last month, so it's my own fault, but now I'm paying for it.

@HighstormFarm I believe I'm dabbling a little in bootstrapping, not sure lol but I've got a lot of pointed mares that I altered a little bit ago so we'll see if it makes a difference in the long run. I'm just a person of short patience, which is why I believe I took a break last time. I think I was waiting on foals to age up and stopped playing and it ended up being a year or longer break with me only logging in to take foals out of my pasture. I left the same stud in the pasture with my mares for like 6 months straight so most of my lined horses are all from the same stud...oops. I'll probably end up "inbreeding" or linebreeding to get the genes and stats I want.
