Hello! I'm wondering if there's a better way to advertise 2 year old studs for testing as a 3 year old, than just on the stallion forum. I've posted 2 WWW AA colts, each for free or 1k (for the most recent one) straws, with a EWW+ requirement. Exceptions can be made for that requirement if someone PMs me to confirm. However, neither of them have gotten any interest. I consistently see freshies with very similar, or worse, training posted and they get plenty of people signing up for straws. Does it have to do with being a well known/popular player? Am I advertising my horses wrong? This doesn't just happen with colts, it also happens in topics such as asking what one of my mares is worth. It's quite frustrating and I'd love any advice on how to help. Thanks in advance!

Maybe advertise his hidden pearl gene trait? its possible it's just because he is Sabino and Roan or his high requirements. The link to him is also broken.

Thank you! Fixed the link :)

Three things I've found help with filling out freshie forums:

You can advertise your butt off, but at the end of the day a low-quality horse with 1 up week 7 is just not going to get as much interest as something all up week 4 with 3+ up week 7.

As for the horses that are getting more interest than yours, despite similar training- what breed/colors are they? Cozmic is right in that roan/sabino aren't going to garner much interest, as a lot of players are tired of that right now.

It really has nothing to do with popularity. The stud that matches the mare will get used, regardless of which player owns it. It's just about getting the right eyes on him. :)
