I do as well, especially since most of my studs end up comparing as good as against my other studs of same paper levels so I'll put 3 in main and 2 in the 60's and go from there.

Also, a stallion can only have 50 live cover foals per season, so if your 100 or 60 pasture is full you need to have more than one stallion in it to ensure all your mares are covered. The stallions are allocated completely at random so in a full 60 pasture, for example, you may get one stallion that covers 37 mares and the other covers 23 mares.

I use the maximum number of stallions because it gives a good variety of genes in the offspring, and also, because I was playing long before pastures became a feature, I am more comfortable with hand breeding to get an even bigger spread of genes.
