Mare Breeding Issue

Post by Star Girl »

One of my mares thinks she has been bred when she hasn't.

Dali (El Prado x Art Fan): http://www.simhorseracing.com/horse.php?HorseID=35777 is reporting as bred even though I haven't bred her and she hasn't been bred in three Sim Years. I was planning to breed her this year, so it's a bit frustrating. She's not pensioned or anything like that it just thinks she's been bred.

I noticed this issue when I was deciding who to breed first among my broodmare band. She wasn't one of the ones I had picked but I would like to be able to breed her before season's end. She is the only mare in my band with the issue the rest who haven't been bred yet aren't popping up this same error. And the ones that have been bred are showing the correct information.

Unfortunately, when you check her history page, she came up barren this year. Approximately 200-300 mares (I forget which) at random come up barren each year, which means you cannot breed to her this year. Sorry :(

When a mare shows bred status when you haven't bred her, it means she was randomly selected to be sterile this year.

If she's barren it will also show up under "history" too...as it does in this case. But don't worry, there's next year. :) It's random selection and happens pretty to everyone at some point.
