I know there was a good discussion about this a few months ago, but the search isn't bringing up anything for me when I search "era". And now after typing era so many times, it's lost all meaning in my head...ick.

I started breeding for Era 14 about a month behind. I had never paid attention to the eras before, just bred for papers, PT and color. But the Eras are giving me a new challenge.

What I think I know:
- At the beginning of June, I should make as many mares of Era 15 as I can that loosely fit with my color goals (which I don't know right now).
- I should put them in the pasture and patiently wait as many days as I can before breeding (how many is ideal?)
- I should take that best in pasture foal, GMT it to a stallion (?) to use on my first 2G mares
- If I have the money, I could clone that BIP a time or two?

Anyone have further tips?

Unfortunately, I didn't realize at the time that fantasy horses wouldn't count to the leaderboards, and I focused hard on my new stallion with chinchilla, and one of the midnight clear herd helpers. So in hindsight, that's kind of a bummer.

I had planned to start stacking up GMT's to buy new genes at the June sale, but then I realized I desperately need a new 1k barn. I don't think I'll have that barn "paid off" before June hits, so that dashes my "fancy pony" ideas for the next generation.
