Horse sense is the thing a horse has which keeps it from betting on people.

Yes, you should definitely trymlloftus wrote:I have a 2 eval for a breed and a 4. The 4 is too tall and the 2 is too short. The 2 is SO close to each of the other ones. Should I bother breeding them?

Re: Should I?
I've created a breed from N/A eval parent, so 2 is not bad at all.mlloftus wrote:I have a 2 eval for a breed and a 4. The 4 is too tall and the 2 is too short. The 2 is SO close to each of the other ones. Should I bother breeding them?
If you've tried more than once already, check out if the foals fall short or overshoot the needed evals in the same direction or not. Like, if one was too bulky and the other had too little bulk, that means the pair is very inconsistent about bulk and next time might just hit the bullseye. If both foals are way too bulky, then I'd suggest you change one of the pair you try to breed (not necessarily the 2* one).
I am usually giving up on a pair after 3 unsuccessful tries, if the foals all fall short in the same direction. If they alternate, I might try forever (if I don't have a better pair to try with).

I would try that but I forgot and rehomed them.
