Thin peaches from branches?

What is the recommended amount of peaches that should be on each branch? We've had problems in the past with brown rot so I have used an anti fungal and bug spray on them this year. I am wondering if this is just too many peaches per branch though. Thoughts?

Peaches are a type of fruit that grow very close to each other on a branch. So I'm sure you're fine.
Unless you feel that the branch is too young and won't be able to hold the weight of the peaches once they mature. In which case, once they mature and you feel the branch has too much weight, pick some peaches off.

Or support the branch with a Y shaped stick if seems to get to heavy.
You can make you own from a wooden branch.
