Stable capacity
The fully upgraded stable holds 20 horses. That is the physical stable cap, not necessarily the total number of horses you can own.
Additional horses can be boarded at the town breeder for payment. Boarding gives you room beyond the stable, but the total is still limited by money and the ongoing cost of care.
Yearling capacity is separate
The yearling limit is not confirmed. Earlier announcements suggested different figures, but neither is a confirmed launch maximum.
Do not add the stable and yearling figures into one invented total. Check the current capacity shown in your save before breeding or buying.
What counts as full
A horse can be blocked by more than stable space:
- The stable may be full.
- The yearling area may be full.
- The horse may need paid boarding.
- A purchase may be blocked by money rather than capacity.
Read the displayed reason before selling a horse to make room.
Is a large stable always better?
No. Every added horse brings feed, care, treatment, training and aging costs. A 20-horse stable is useful when you can keep all 20 healthy and working. Filling it before you have the staff and income to support it creates a larger version of the same bottleneck.
Use paid boarding when it solves a temporary space problem, not as a way to ignore the daily workload.
