As you know, you get fresh horse dung every day from your horse. But what to do with it? Some would say sell it. I disagree. Keep your poop people!!! Here are some reasons why:

1. If you are ever short on cash, you will always have extra dung, and will therefore never lose a foal because you dont have enough money

2. when you buy a pass with the money from your reserve, you pay 20% of your total money. however, poop is not added into that, so if you dont sell your poop, you will pay less for a pass when purchasing out of your reserve!

There you go. i hope this will help you!

But if you sell it you can then go to the store and buy it back to make manure and put it on your fields.

Ok so you aren't buying "your poop" but it contributes to the poop/manure cycle.

What cwaltem is saying is, the more money you have in your reserve, the more you have to pay for a pass if you choose to buy passes with game money. It's not a matter of how useful poop can be, it's how unhelpful extra money can be if you should need to purchase a pass. Make sense?

Another Point though, holding poop decreases the prestige of your EC, as does less money in the reserves. Just something to think about.

100 units of poop gets you 300 equus so I'd say its a pretty good deal to sell it

One would think so. I actually liked this idea, because it made sense to me, so I tried it. I now have quite a collection of poop. This helped reduce what I paid from my reserves for a pass. Four of my five horses are the only horses in my EC. My EC's boxes and meadows are very highly rated for cleanliness.

I don't know where that pile of poop is, including the stuff from the horse in a different EC, but nobody seems to think it is dirty, apparently!

If I am hard up for cash, or want to purchase something expensive without depleting my reserves, I'll cash it in.

So I like this idea!

Today, I cashed in. Not because a mare was going to foal and I didn't have the equus for the vet or anything like that. I'm still quite a ways from breeding.

But I had 222 in my stock, and wanted to buy a saddle and bridle for my next horse coming up for the rides/comps part of training. I didn't want to deplete my reserves by 800e. So I didn't. I sold Mrs. H the poop, and bought a saddle and bridle, only depleting my reserves by about 150e!

I love this tip! Rather than feeling like I lost 800e, I feel like I got a steal of a deal, losing so little reserves for such a big purchase. It may be psychological, but it works for me!

question: HOW do you sell it?

[edit] nevermind, i just figured it out! :p

how does that work as I thought your breeding farm and EC didn't have that kind of connection?

I think she means that keeping it in your stock at your EC decreases the prestige. Could be wrong, though.

Didn't realise that as I get so fed up with the 30 second wait that I stock pile poo until I have 1000! Off to sell what's there.

hey, im glad you like the tip, and i hope it helps you! As for the ec thing, i dont really see how that relates since im talking about keeping the dung from your horses.
