Retiring is weird. You can retire them and keep 'em, you can retire them and get them to over 30 to get the pass, but putting them in the SH sucks. Big time.

I usally get the passes to help my breeding, and their foals/grand foals lol .gif) , but it does feel like murder  Ive only ever put 1 horse into the Safe Haven and it was because no one would buy him |

He could have grown up to compete. I only put 1 in the SH when I had to delete a multiple account. .gif) |

I have never put a horse in the SH. I almost did. I didn't have enough time to train him and no one was buying him but then he sold.  I just needed to be patient. I use the passes to help with the breeding too. I have two or three horses that I would probably keep and not age, they are my favorites The SH is supposed to be a good place but the foals are never even given a chance! It is like murder. |

I have never even thought about putting a horse in the SH.
My method: if they don't sell, train 'em or keep 'em till they sell/you can train 'em

I put 2 horses in the SH when I first started. I didn't really know what it was. I'll never do it again. If my foals don't sell, oh well. Not their fault. It's nice to keep your horses' descendents anyways. My pegasus mare just died but I have her 2 sweet lil colts still so I don't feel so bad.

I kept Aziza Aamira since she was the daughter of two of my fav horses, Gaia Emerald and Aswad Al-Fahl, both which are black, and Aziza Aamira is also black! I've considered getting a pass from Gaia Emerald, but never A-A-F!

I suck at goetting horses to over 30, mostly I just sell 'em in the auctions so the eager ~1 bill. people can get at 'em and get their pass.

Well, there's Seabreeze (7yrs, GLITCH GLITCH GLITCH!)
I also tried getting Godless Glory to 30+, but since at age 28 her health was at 40% or so, I chickened and sold her.

Whats the method? I'm interested so I can get a pass from some of my horses. I have my favorites and I probably wouldn't let them die but I have some that aren't loved as much. Keep in mind that I still like them and they are children of some of my favorites but it would be nice to get some passes. I've only had one horse die. He was only 6 and I was really new so I didn't know how to take care of them very well, I let his energy get to low and didn't have a Black Orchid or any passes to buy one so he died I haven't had a horse die sense |

Yeah, pippa and piggy, what's the method? I've got some old stallies (Starry Glory, Ulysses, Poseidon and Zippy-all of which are some of my favorites ) that are pretty near 25. |

I've paid up to 5,000 equus for horses over 25 years old. It's easy to get them over 30 years. I've been trying very hard not to spend anymore money on passes, hundreds of dollars is enough. I don't want to be one of those high GP breeders who have spent thousands, I'd rather save it to buy a real horse. Dyl, if you wanna sell any of your older horses, please let me know. I'll pay you well for them.

I don't want to spend a lot of money on howrse but still want high GP horses so getting passes would be helpful.

I'm getting tired of the whole unicorn thing. I didn't know it was gonna be this hard. I've had 4 failed attempts. I thought it would be like every other breeding.

Not right now, but Ulysses, Starry Glory, Zippy and a bit later Poseidon will be 25. Currently Ulysses is 22y 2mo and the oldest of the bunch.
