The risk is higher but sometimes they surprise you and pass

I've bred 2nd gen As to 2nd gen red papered mares, and you do get a higher percentage of foals that fail SBA, but I've always had at least one or two pass. However, whether the sons test sup to sire or not is a different matter.

Uh I just found this 2g Liver kitm guy. I snapped him up when I saw him. If you want him I’ll sell him to you for what I paid. I usually want A stallions at 2g, so he’s not quite right for me.

@HayesStable Thank you he's lovely but I picked up Silverstars lovely guy!

@Peachtree he's yours if you want him :) I'll put him in my chat room for you!

I always breed A papered stallions to my Red papered gen2 mares. I might get a few more snipped but the ones who pass are better quality and I'm more likely to get those gen3 blues which I like

In the past, getting those blue papered 3rd gens used to be special for me. Now I get them often enough that I no longer have any 3rd gen reds. I still cross Bs to Reds and get blues. Of course, I still get red papered foals, but I can afford to spay them because I get at least twenty blues. This year, I got 25 blues out of my 2nd gen pasture. I may have sold or spayed a few more blues because they were too plain.

I have had decent luck with A to Red 2nd gen crossing, especially with pastures.

I've got a couple 2gen A's I'll be using on my red 2gens so we'll see how mine works out...in two months ;)
