This is important because if you have, say, a Winter Collection delivery kit from 2014 which you've never removed the kitten box from, the traits are set when you do so. That means even though it's a 2014 collection starter, and will show the collection traits, when you breed it you have the same chances for __today's__ (that is, the instant you take to kitten box out and place it in-world or your Cattery) current set of traits.
It sounds like you have boxes which were bred back in 2014. Breeding them won't produce any __current__ traits, but can produce a trait which __was__ current but has since been retired. So, if you're looking at how to use them, I'd suggest only breeding them against more-recent offspring. That way you'll have a reasonable chance both of propagating newer traits and older, retired traits (should there be any).
Thank you! That's exactly what I am doing. <3
