Era 6 Straw Swaps
  • Anyone interested in doing an Era 6 Straw Swap with me? Essentially, we ten straws from our Era 6 stallions and pledge to do two things:
    1) Use them to produce foals during the Year 129 breeding season, breeding them to mares Era 6 or higher (foals will have the lower of their parents' eras).
    2) Keep the foals, (either as show ponies or breeders)

    This would make both the owner of the stallions and the holder of the foals eligible for the Era 6 futurity in for the June 2023 futurity awards

    Obviously, there's no way other than scouts' honor to enforce this, but it would benefit both sides of the trade.

    I do note there is currently only one eligible stallion for the Era 6 futurity. Pros: the first 24 stallions to try for it will automatically make it onto the board. Cons: If we don't fill out the ranks with enough stallions, we may not get prizes (Thought Ammit has stated she may adjust the number required if there is difficultly filling out the boards). I personally consider it low risk for a potentially high reward, but I wanted to disclose that.

    I have many Era 6 stallions (Most require licenses, though some do not).

    Full list (including only those younger than 12, and thus guaranteed to still be alive in June 2023): All Younger Stallions
    Non-License Young'uns: No closed genes
    Older Ones (who may age out before June 2023): The Stately Gentlemen

  • I have some era 6 studs and would enjoy an exchange. You might set up a chat room for this, no one has made one yet for era 6

  • Just as a reminder - the Futurity boards don't give awards until June 2023 and the offspring must be five years old (not "at least five years old") so don't breed until Season 129, which is next month!

  • I have none to swap, but I would happily hold a foal or few from your lines.
  • If that is the case, @chateaualbere, I'll take 10 more straws

    I'd like to keep my main focus on drafts, but am willing to settle on other body types if there aren't enough options.
    I will grab 10 straws from:
