I'm currently struggling in game in the Lost Grove and the Arena because I only have pets with low base stats, and I'd love to get max stat pets that I can breed to get my own army of pets for personal use and for assisting the breeder who helps me. There would need to be a massive benefit to any breeder that has max stat pets for this to be even remotely feasible. Here is what I propose:

I like saber-toothed kitties with good looks and max stats to start off with that are capable of breeding.
I breed more kitties exclusively for myself that cannot be sold, or used for breeding by other players (otherwise I would be subject to a permaban as outlined in section 4A of the terms of service), but can be used to assist the breeder (more on this later!).

On to the part for the breeder:
I provide my stables/hatchery slots for breeding more max stat pets en masse, and I give these new pets to the breeder when they hatch, which can then be made infertile and sold by the breeder for $$$.
Eventually, I have a lot of max-stat fertile kitties in my stables that can do a lot of breeding, and I keep getting lots of new eggs and turning them over to the breeder from my hatchery. The breeder can then get them hatched and sell them as they see fit.

As I'm a newbie to Sylestia I'd need help on learning how to do player-to-player trades of pets that do not involve the broker.

Further terms and conditions can be negotiated by any breeder interested in this.

Any thoughts on this?

I don't think it would benefict anyone to just give you a fertil max stat. The breeder spen a lot of time selecting the trait / color and boost the stat of their project generation after generation until it is finaly done. If you start making offspring from those pet you decreass their value.

Nothing stop you to buy max stats of cource but a lot of the breeder will not let fertil offspring be sold.

Of cource if you want to start a breeding project and make it max stat i am sure you can find a guide or two on the suject. ^-^
