How does everybody sort their barns? I'm about to start a huge rearrangement and would LOVE some ideas! I only have one strict line going, the rest are kind of all mixed together. Any suggestions helpful!

Thank you!

I have a stud barn, foundation mare barn, lined mare barn, foal barn and 14 show barns...

Foals go into foal barn as soon as all of their testing is done and come rollover they'll go in either that stud or mare barns.. mares are put into pastures as soon as they are old enough. The only barn I ever need to sort and cull down is the stud barn.. anything snipped goes into show barns aside from a few surrogate mares I keep around for embryo transfer..

I do similar to Bambi, except I snip all colts at the end of each season if I am not going to use them. I do not keep any mares for embryo transfer, mostly just show herd right now.

I have a barn for my personal breeding stallions, a barn for my public stallions, three barns for current breeding mares, a barn for extra mares, eight show barns, a barn for straw/egg collection, and two barns for future breeding stock. Every foal, new create, or new purchase stays in my primary barn until room opens up in their respective barn.

I have barns for each of my generations up to 6th generation, a yearling barn, auction barn, stud prospect barn, then a bunch of show barns, and I also have a foundation mare overflow barn.
