Pasture breeding, multiple stallions
  • Does anyone here do pasture breeding with multiple stallions in the pasture? How do you decide which to group? Have you noticed an equal split between the three stallions (eg if 3 stallions and 30 mares, each stallion sires 10 foals) or have you noticed one stallion tends to take a larger number of mares?
  • It depends on the size of the pasture. The smaller ones can only have 1 stallion.
    The 10 and 30 mare pastures can only have 1 stallion, 60 mare pastures can have 2 stallions, 100 mare pastures can have 3 stallions.

    I have 10, 30 and 100 pastures. In the 100s, I only use 2 stallions as long as both haven't done any other live covers that season. Sometimes the first time you hit breed pasture 1 stallion hits his 50 foal limit but tries to cover more so you have to hit breed pasture again to get the 2nd stallion to finish up to his limit.

    I don't have any 60 mares pastures so I don't know how those work.

    As for who goes where it depends on what pasture it is. I have 2 pastures with my Spl M girls so only Spl M boys get to visit them. The 10 mare pastures I formerly used to test my bootstrap colts but now I'm using them to pull special mares into and might start using them for my Wrong Warp, Mushroom and Watercolor girls. The big pastures have my Gold and Blue bootstrap girls so the highest stallions visit them.
  • It's usually fairly even - I have some 60 pastures. Mostly 30:30 or near enough but who goes with whom is pretty random!

  • Remember to watch your Frames and white factors :)

  • @nowandforever and @dinascar thank you! That is super helpful! @dinascar, thank you so much for the WF comment! I went through and peeped again to make sure my WFs were going to be complementary, and had to move a bunch of mares around to keep them kosher. Thank you!

  • It's so easily done, especially if you have big pastures - I have lost a few foals from white factor and it's a horrible feeling.

  • Roughly equal but you can have stallions which breed more than others.

    In my Gen 3 pasture I've got two stallions who shared a pasture and one covered 34 whilst the other covered 23.
    In my Gen 4 pasture another stallion covered 34 whilst the other covered 25.

  • @dinascar I lost one this year due to it :( Saddest day

    @bourbon that’s good to know! I wonder what causes some stallions to cover more than others? I’ll be so interested to see how my first multi-stallion pasture goes!
