Breeding horses
Mental notes
  • Horses must be at least 3 game years old and at least level 5 in order to be breedable.
  • Horses must be fed have the breeding check done at the vet before breeding.
  • Inbreeding will not work.

In AVH breeding works this way:
The owner of a mare searches for a stallion that is available for stud, requests stud and the owner of the stallion is automatically notified.
If the owner of the stallion accepts the mare will become pregnant and will give birth to a foal in 3 to 4 real days.
Obviously the foal stays with the mare.
Note: If the same player owns both the mare and the stallion, the breeding is done immediately after the request.
Below are the steps required to breed your horses:

  1. Breeding mares.

    The "For stud" checkbox must be checked and the gender must be Stallion!
     
    > Third step
