I've been trying to get into RID to have more variety than just my ISH. I feel like buying quality mares, and getting good foals is alot harder than ISH? Is it because there's just less people breeding them? I've been getting consistent PPPs and EPPs. With my ISH I'm usually annoyed if I get anything under EEE.

Your feelings are right:

RID is one of the hardest breeds at HEE - along with KNNs.

There are few breeders, few bloodlines, no horses on the ABLB and you can not cross them with any other strong breeds to bring up the ratings.

They rather love to breed down than to breed up the ratings and this is why so many users give up on them ;)
