Suggestions
I have a couple suggestions to make the game more realistic
1. Competitions
I love how the competitions work right now but there is a couple things which I think would make them better.
a. Pregnant mares cant enter while far enough into their pregnancy like 4-9 months or something like that.
b. Certain breeds shouldn't be able to do certain events. ex. Belgians shouldn't be able to do flat racing.
c. Only certain aged horses can enter for certain events. ex. flat racing could be ages 2-8
2. Injuries/Illnesses
a. Horses should get possible injuries or illnesses. But they should be related to what the horse is doing and not that its just sitting for what ever. ex. If a horse is over fed it could get colic. If a horse is entered in a show and isnt shod (Connects to another suggestion) it could injure a leg.
3. Shoeing and floating
a. Horses should be able to get shoes and the shoes should affect the horses well being. ex. A horse is more likely to get an injury if it isnt shod and enters a competition that in real life the horse would be wearing shoes. ex. Barrels. You should also be able to pick what feet need shoes. ex. Front feet, All four
b. You should be able to float your horses teeth. This could affect how your horse eats and how much.
4.Gifting
1. I wish I was able to gift people objects such as pastures, books, or horses. If this isnt possible because people would miss use this then maybe their could be trading so you could trade books or horses BUT the item being traded must be the same like Horse to Horse, Book to Book, Pasture to Pasture, Skills to Skills ect.
LASTLY
This is honestly the most important thing to me. Not really sure why but it is.
I would love if horses colours affected their breeds. I see horses like the Sorria which should always be greyish or dun but they are bay or black or other colours which they shouldn't be. I would love to see horses being the colours they are in real life. I also see horses like the Lipizzaner or Andalusian being colours which they shouldn't be. I know this would be difficult but it would make me sooooo happy.
I would also love to see the Lipizzaner and Andalusian change colour because in real life when these breeds are born they are bay or black and as they age they turn white.
Please Read
I Honestly dont know what other people think but I think that having these things in the long term would be awesome. I know that these would take a long time to get into the game but im totally ok with that.
Please respond if you agree or disagree

Why? There's no reason why you should not be able to race any breed.Horsey8866 wrote: b. Certain breeds shouldn't be able to do certain events. ex. Belgians shouldn't be able to do flat racing.
I've personally worked with racehorses who were still competitive at 10+ years old.Horsey8866 wrote: c. Only certain aged horses can enter for certain events. ex. flat racing could be ages 2-8

Lipis and Andies only grey out because those are the colors that have been bred for most recently. Lipizzans used to have paint patterns and cream dilutions, but those fell out of fashion. Here, you can breed horses of whatever color you want in whatever breed you want, as it should be.Horsey8866 wrote: LASTLY
