[QUOTE="ArrowHBrand, post: 409959, member: 6496"] I agree that they do have more opportunities now than ever before however I still don't think you are catching my point. Lets say you want an ice cream cone and someone gives you one minus the ice cream. It's the same with SPB's. They want to give you the registration, but you have to adhere to being of a lesser status. With the right marketing SPB's can be very lucrative, but you have to put more time in training them than you would a tobiano. The training usually sells SPB's, in my opinion. We sold a solid deep chestnut in April who could flying lead change, spin, cut and sort cattle, do just about anything you wanted her to do and I think we got such a good price, at an auction no less, was because she was so well trained. Am I disappointed when we get an SPB? Not so much if it's a filly, but I am gloriously excited when we get a true Paint. We are changing our broodmare herd over to homozygous Paints and are lining up a breeding fee for next spring to a homozygous stud. Take the guess work out of it all. Any way back to the point. Equal footing for all Paints. Or divide the registry into R.R. Paints and SPB's and give them both the same amount of time, attention, marketing, public exposure, etc. Send SPB's out with R.R. Paint papers, but maybe do some sort of breeding restrictions like the Thoroughbreds do. [/QUOTE]
