Honestly, the chances of getting brindle is so low... I am not sure it would be worth mass flushing your mare. You can collect eggs every 5 days for 3000 hbs each, and get more over a longer period of time.

I like consistent pedigrees, so I would personally breed a fully lined mare with a fully lined stallion.

Note: You can pull another egg on the 6th day after you pull the first: pull and egg on the 1st of the month, the next on the 6th of the month, the next on the 12th, etc. If you don't live cover the mare, you can continue pulling eggs throughout the game year.

Trying to breed for brindle is a very expensive exercise in frustration. One of the long time members who was chasing brindle once reported on her success rate. I forget the exact numbers, but I believe she only got a handful of brindle foals, most of them neutered, out of several thousand brindle breedings.

I used to chase brindle hard. I have done 500 brindle x brindle breedings in one season and didn't get a single brindle foal out of it. A good year would give me two or three.

It is an exercise in both patience and frustration, and I would recommend you set yourself firm limits on how much you're going to spend in the quest, it's real easy to keep trying "just one more" and end up broke, particularly when you're dealing with eggs or straws and ET's.
