When Breeding Advice gets it REALLY wrong!
  • I created a mare today. Strict Breeding Advice decided she would be a better show horse than a breeder. But...her Performance Test had already given her a score of 0.0!!

    Needless to say, it's off to the auction with her when I next empty my "heading to the auction" barns. =))

  • Strict breeding advice only predicts breeding potential, not performance/training ability. :)

    She’s still a good breeding horse, just not a good show horse.

  • My goodness Doris must've had a coronary on the spot!
  • lol real life most times (not always for all the negative nancys ) indicates the offspring would produce nice as well. Breed the best to the best to get better, at least in the hunter jumper ring. Maybe
  • Question is.. do you still have her? Lol
  • Well--I could unneuter her and try regular breeding advice, I suppose, but I'm not at all certain that she'd paper Yellow without a breeding boost.

    So, paradoxphoenix, I decided to unneuter her and try plain Breeding advice. She still was reported as being a better show horse than a breeder. She's definitely nothing but a pasture ornament.

    @shellbell: Here's the comment from Dorris about horses with a 0 PT score:

    "What are you some sort of nut job screw ball or something? Are you sure that is not a llama? Please just turn around and put that thing back in the trailer."

    It took me a while to find the chart of Dorris comments that I'd made a good many years ago.

  • @veetiepony1: Since the auction was still going on, I still have her. I have two barns where I collect neutered horses with PT scores less than 9.0. I usually gather horses there until at least the smaller of the barns is full. I currently have 14 horses in the 60 stall barn that I've gathered just today.

  • @SandyCreekAcres that's awesome. I just created a bunch last evening didn't test them and one of the girls decided to kick in a stall door. I looked and she "leveled off" so I decided to test her and yep 0.2 off she goes to auction!
  • Better show horse than a breeder- well she's obviously a terrible show horse, so that certainly says something about her breeding!

  • Not incorrect. Just a really bad breeder.
