Participate in a FG Test for HH!
I’d love to have several users record data when completing foal games with their foals. Anyone can participate, but please post your user name in the comments with the companion you will be using. Two people may post data using one companion (ie: one player completes foal games using a cat; another unrelated players uses a cat as well and the data is compared). I am hosting this lab in hopes to discover why it requires too much energy for some users. If anyone has helpful input, it’s always welcome. I will offer 2,000e to those that participate.
Below is a list of companions and the users who are helping:
Goat: Nanea & fishifreak
Monkey: (none)
Rabbit: Nanea
Swallow: Nanea
Cat: Nanea
Griffin: (none)
Phoenix: (none)
Squirrel: fishifreak
Turtle: Nanea & fishifreak
Frog: (none)

If you are participating, please comment (do not message me on Howrse). If this page is not yet updated and a user comments a companion they are testing with, please pick another companion to use.
After completing one day of foal games (ex: complete the day of 8 months, record data. next 10 months, record data), please fill out this form in the comments:

I got the gist of this here on the website, but I edited it to fit my needs. It was Winter, and 7˚C, I don’t know if it matters…
Birth to 4 months:
groom // stroke // carrot (if available) // drink // suckle
The foal should end the first day with 22-27 energy, following days with 100% energy and morale will increase daily.
6 months:
Board the foal, look for the best EC you can find for his skills and ensure the EC has carrots. Pastures and boxes should be immaculate.
groom // 1.5 hrs pasture // 1.5 hrs pasture // drink (top up food as necessary)
8 months:
1.5 hrs pasture // groom // play 7 hrs // turnip // play 1 hr // stroke // carrot // drink // 1.5 hrs pasture // feed 2 lbs
10 months:
1.5 hrs pasture // groom // play 1 hr // 1 hr pasture // feed 7 lbs // play 7 hrs // turnip // play 1 hr // stroke // carrot // drink
1 year:
2.5 hrs pasture // groom // play 1 hr // turnip // play 8 hrs // stroke // carrot // drink
1 year 2 months:
1.5 hrs pasture // groom // play 1 hr // turnip // play 1 hr // drink // feed 6 lbs // play 8 hrs // stroke // carrot
1 year 4 months:
0.5 hrs pasture // groom // play 1 hr // feed 10 lbs // play 1 hr // play 1 hr // play 1 hr // play 1 hr // play 1 hr // play 4 hrs // turnip // 1 play hr // stroke // carrot // drink
1 year 6 months:
Grooming // drink // 1 hr play // feed 19 lbs // 1 hr play // 0.5 hrs pasture // play 1 hr // play 1 hr // play 8 hrs // stroking // 1 hr play // turnip // carrot
I ended with 20% energy at 24:00.

Shower definitely does.

@Devangel – that gave me a great idea. Just stroke an Xanthos if your horse runs out of energy – problem solved!

CONCLUSION from this and the two previous horses. The kg regimen (used on UK Howrse) works fine until 1 year 6 months, but is poor for that final age. I think we could avoid the overfeeding at younger ages (maybe underfeed sometimes?), then do a bigger feed (7 kg?) at 1 year 6 months. I wonder also if the order could be adjusted so you are stroking up from 0-1% energy instead of from 3%, and save the carrot till that point. I have done this with the lb regimen and got up to 20% energy at the end.
Another trick – on the international Howrse I have routinely squeezed in another 30 minutes of games at age 1 year, and that means I can go a bit easier at 1 year 6 months. Hope this helps, PM me at walkerma if you have questions. Thanks for all your incredible work at HH.
