This is a random question but I had no idea where else to ask. For the people that tends to brood out there PEE/EEP WB girls, do you have luck brooding them out? I'm thinking about doing a few but I don't know if it's really worth it and they're not LB girls.

Warmbloods aren't the best group to brood out. Right now, the cheapest PEE mares are up for about 25k, and at least two in the first ten sorted by cheapest mares have at least a 75% PPP+ producing record. If you'd like to brood out your mares, they'll need to be great producers and you'll probably have to list them for closer to 20k, which lessens the price of the breed overall over time. If you'd like to do it anyway, it'll likely be easier if you cooperate with some WB clubs to have them promote the use of your mares for a lower price.

Brood market overall is going the way of the Dodo. Unless LB or TB I'm seeing all breeds as low as 19K each. That's for EEP combo mares. Best to just hope for RF luck and take them to freshman.

I am no longer a Warmblood breeder (I was for nearly 3 years, but thats beside the point), but I do know that your best luck with broods is to put them out as soon as possible on rollover. If you can do it right on changeover that is ideal. People want to test their stallions asap, so if you can get your mares up very quickly, you have a much better chance of them being brooded out. :)

Thanks guys for the replies back! I noticed the market was wayyy down. But I just can't bare it in my heart to give up on the WBs, I've been breeding them for 6 years now. Maybe I will get some good luck xD
