Seeing horses that have died without looking at pedigree
I want to know if you can see all the horses that you have owned or have died on your farm. i know you can by looking at the pedigree and progeny but it wold make my life so much easy if you can click on a tab and it all be there.

Re: Seeing horses that have died without looking at pedigree
You can try notifications. It shows if you offered on a horse and the owner accepted, and if you breed a horse and pop the mare it's there, and you can see horses that have passed away, as well as horses who have been rehomed(Though you can't look at their profile). Hope this helpsFantasyRanch1 wrote:I want to know if you can see all the horses that you have owned or have died on your farm. i know you can by looking at the pedigree and progeny but it wold make my life so much easy if you can click on a tab and it all be there.

Re: Seeing horses that have died without looking at pedigree
The only other way (at least right now), is to make a list on your farm logs so you can track them more easily.
I recommend by project or by breed and then further defining them into mares and stallions.
Eventually, you'll have thousands pass through your farm, so that can get to be quite a few links to save.

Re: Seeing horses that have died without looking at pedigree
Yeah... applying all of them into a topic will take time. Once accomplished though, you'll need to only update it in batches.FantasyRanch1 wrote:Yes i know i should just do this but i seem to never have time as usualBlackOak2 wrote:The only other way (at least right now), is to make a list on your farm logs so you can track them more easily.

You'll need to figure out how best to do that though.
Such as, create a barn or a pasture and all newcomers (either through birth or purchase) are placed there until you add them.
Or, you can do so when you get a notification of breeding age (then this will work with all purchases under breeding age), then it also give time to cull out any you decide later won't work for you.
Or, you can batch them in on the day they leave your farm, either through dying or through being sold.
Right now, I batch the club lines through pedigree (mare only). I pull up the mares that were last batched and enter their progeny that way. The fillies' tabs are kept and their progeny added, the colts, after they're added, their tabs are closed. This prevents duplicate additions.
You can do this with studs too, instead of mares. Just remember to choose just one, either the mare or the stallion, and stick to it throughout that set, this way, you won't have duplicate links.
To get an idea of the way I've done the club registry, it's here.
However, just to keep track of all of your horses, simply linking their address will suffice. Like so:

So there's quite a few different ways to handle what you want to accomplish. Fancy or plain, straightforward or intricate.

Re: Seeing horses that have died without looking at pedigree
Yes, that looks quite nicely done. The trick is to include just enough information that you can figure it out yourself. Don't worry about other people trying to figure it out.

By including too much information, you'll be adding to your work. By including too little, you'll forget what horse that is or why it's there... and so on.
That topic appears to have just what you need, with a little bit of additional information so that you can be like: 'Oh, yeah!' or 'Ah, right and that's why...'
Plus, it doesn't have information there that is repetitive or unnecessary, at least from my view. These things also evolve. Eventually, you'll understand what information is necessary and what you've come to understand isn't. So don't be afraid to change things in the future. If or when you do, I recommend leaving the old material as is, instead of updating the old information or the old posts.
This old information and old posts will also serve to jog your memory if ever you take a hiatus or put a project on short-term or long-term freeze.

Thanks for helping me. I put their names in case someone changes their names. Is there anything that i should add or you recommend me add?BlackOak2 wrote:Yes, that looks quite nicely done.

Re: Seeing horses that have died without looking at pedigree
Hmm... You pretty much have all of it covered. Posted by gender, disposition (if it was sold or bought), name (in case somebody changed it), breed (of course).FantasyRanch1 wrote:

Some of the things that may or may not matter that you might consider adding could be:
If they're purebred, or what percentage if they're not.
How many foals they had.
What age they passed at.
If they were trained and what competition WPS they earned (or overall earnings).
But such information depends on whether you choose to keep track of such things. For certain projects, certain things will be unnecessary. For example, if you're breeding for color only, then competition records aren't valuable information. Or if it's strictly a competition line, then the breed, if it's purebred or not, would be entirely negligible. So, the information you include will come down to what the project is about.
Like for the club registry, I found it important (well, the club found it important) to include the sire and dame in our registry, but only if they were club-branded horses. Outside horse information is considered negligible and so it's simply not included. But even on that registry, foal count isn't included, nor is coat pattern (though this is important to the club), or WPS. Though these things are, indeed, tracked still on that page. It's tracked through a hard number rather than actual verbage.
You can also apply different information to cover such, if you find it still necessary, but long-winded. For instance, if coat, foals and age of death are important, instead of typing it like: blue roan with snowflakes; 23 fillies; 6 colts; 23.5 years, you could do: E-Ro; 23/6; 23.5
But by redefining HOW you post this information, make sure you keep a note somewhere about how you're doing it, like at the top, write it out with an example: E-Ro (black extension with roaning); 23/6 (fillies/colts); 23.5 (age of death).
