Which Horse Best Represents The Genes You Breed For?
-
I'd really like to see some!
For me based purely off of colour it would be this boy, dark brown with satin and sooty+.
Our ExclusiveOwner Of Bellwether Farm
Sport pony breeding farm focused on breeding, selling and showing quality ponies. Specializing in breeding brown, DP, dun, sooty+, & W8. -
If I could only pick one it would be this guy. He's no longer a live in game, though I have a whole line of his offspring. He was the horse who made me decide to go all draft. I have tons of colors and special gene projects but I chose him because he is the one who started it all.
WO1 Going Prodigious -
I breed for tons of things, so it's hard to pick just one horse. So I'm going to pick two.
Wish started me down the road of breeding towards a goal using the best possible breeding stock available to me. His genes live on in lots of lines across the game. He also fostered my fascination with GMTing and Sooty+
Weekend Wishes tqY
Now I'm starting from scratch again and this boy probably defines everything I've learned in the last almost 2 years of playing the game. I love some of the closed genes, and this guy has Machiato. I loved blue eyed black splash so this guy is black based. I love lots of patterns mixed together, so this guy has Machiato, W8, appy and rabicano. I love starting lines with rank specials, so this guy is a Nanotech Primer. And I love satin, so this guy has satin. He also occupies a unique spot in my coterie of foundation stallions, each at the head of their own dynastic line. Because each line is quite different from the others, I can mix together all of the things I most love in the game and still have specific goals.
Enlightened Mind ExP EZqm -
There are several things I breed for. Mainly it is Splash/frame, S+, DP, Appy, W8 and Macchiato.
I just recently got what I want from my S+ line. I love the exaggerated dapples, and the splotchy brown that one can get from it. This little mare, my second blue and first 3G blue, may also have dapples as well!
3S A Pretty Tempo
I have just found a love of W8 and frame, and this girl shows it off. W8 by itself is fine, but I'm going to start mixing them with my S/F line to get more frame in it.
3K8SB Mjolnr f
For my appy line, I want either leopard appys or appy with tobiano. I love the small hint of spots on the bottom with the slash of white on the shoulder. I quite like the microdots, and would want to breed some more of them.
2 The Crying Soldier
Tumbled Down Some Stairs
For my Livers, I prefer chocolate palominos and liver bays. I would like my livers to have S+ on them, but it's not needed. Minimal white is preferred, so my S+ chocolate palomino girl has far too much for me, but I'll breed the splash and frame out. Some of them do have appy, but that's more just seeing what I could get.
2SLV Black Meteor
3LV Double Justice
My splash/frame horses I'm starting to narrow down. I want Hom splash in the whole line, with only a few having frame. I love the splotchy whites that it can cause, especially the medicine hats. The main foundation stallion for this line is a Sparkling Cider, so most have w2.
2SF Pretty Kitty F
2SF Medicine Hat
2SF Blue Hill Side F
And finally my Macchiato line! I'm mainly just trying to get pretty ponies. I quite like the frame interaction with it, so I'll be trying more crosses with it (another splash/frame line lol). I love it with appy, and a dark or gray base is just DIVINE. The lead stallion for this herd is a dark chestnut, so most of the colours must come from the mares. Mares who would otherwise be reserved just for a stallion of a certain herd (eg An appy mare) would be put to this boy at least once, just to see what I get. Here are my favourites from last season. I'm planning on doing a huge post of what Macchiatos I get each season, but have yet to breed my boy. Blue eyes are also a bonus.
2Angry Before Coffee
2 Coconut Nibbles
2 Icecream Heart The frame girl. You can see the diamonds starting to form, which I think are typical of the pattern. The fading of the macchiato has also caused a dark shape on her face, that kind of looks like a heart.
I'm also planning on starting a pearl line, I already have the foundation boy, but I have yet to begin. I need more barns xDProducer of Volcanic Glass Drafts. Lapisobsidianus.
Prices are almost always negotiable. -
@Cheers I have to admit, that Macchiato boy of yours is stunning! If only he had a higher bone, then I could justify asking for straws xD
@fj There's just something about a dark flaxen liver that is special, isn't there? I have a bit of flaxen and pangere in my liver lines too, but not much.Producer of Volcanic Glass Drafts. Lapisobsidianus.
Prices are almost always negotiable. -
I love Pintaloosas. These are my favorite two pintaloosa studs. Can't wait till they are old enough to try out.
Skylights Keep Sake ta2
Skylights War Chief Spta2
Here's m favorite pintaloosa mare pattern
Skylights OnaRoll Spta2
I also adore w2 mixed with frame. This one as seriously moved up to my all time favorite. :)
S Framed By Magic wF
Thats my main color breedings but I also have a side project of uniquely marked horses. Like mixing the w's with appy
Skylights Macy a2 -
Wow. I love seeing whatever one else is focusing on! It makes me realize that for the most part I have not narrowed down what genes I am breeding for except aiming for paper levels and AFPT. I do like my snowflake apps, and I have a preference for Black based horses. Unfortunately I snipped this one for paper level, but she is everything I look in a snowflake.

This one I bought but is a mix of two of my favorites, black liver and wht M, hoping to gmt him a little but won't change him much, just don't want lwo and his consistency :)
G2 B blklvr prl whtm lwo
Then there is this boy who will always be my favorite as a black liver brindle appaloosa <3<br />

My herd is based off of a picture I drew, but I try to put in some variation so they all look similar to the base idea but they don't all loo alike. Here are two that exemplify it well.
Thunder Bird

I love my splash and frame TOBYs with this face marking,
TOBY Tennent in Pink 2G
(I'm in love with this dude!He is going to sire my 2G line I think)
TOBY Lunar Jewel 2G
TOBY Bean Town G
TOBY Morse Music 2G
This dude from @Bourbon is simply gorgeous!
TOBY Twenty Halloween 2G
This is my first season with my TOBYs and it has ahh... gone Okay.Thanked by 1Ritsika -
I really love this topic idea but it's a really hard one as there are so many different goals. I bet if you asked in a month it would point more to a new stallion I just got.
But I think I narrowed it down to this guy. Tobiano, rabicano, and Appaloosa. Multiple genes on one horse. Maybe even more genes later but a draft frame.
One of my main herd sires:
2G BSS Bay Speckled StarBreeder of any and all crazy colored drafts and RH horses. -
I am still trying different genes. But I think I want to narrow down to 4 lines.
Buckskin W8 line.
Machiato line
Tobiano rabicano line
Nexus line
My thing is trying to figure color. I know the genes I want but now have to figure color on the other 3 lines. -
@JordanK, great thread idea! Everyone has unique herds and color goals. I enjoy seeing all the different results.
I have a few horses that I think of as goals mainly because I can't decide. The horses I post are basically the ones that I love seeing pop up in my pasture breeding because I love rabicano, tobiano, sabino, black based, cream, splash and appy - though not necessarily all at once.
2G Star Lord hKP
Brown Sabino Tobiano Appaloosa Rabicano
He was the stallion I never knew I wanted until I saw him. I adore sabino and tobiano together but I didn't realize I enjoyed brown until I bred him. Initially I was aiming for black. That he got rabicano and appaloosa, too, was icing on the cake. Now my goal is to get a homozygous KP horse with his genes though I'm not picky on the KIT alleles.
2G Snowflaked
Chocolate Palomino Frame Appaloosa
I made a liver chestnut snowflake stallion and my goal is to get chocolate and liver snowflake foals. This chocolate palomino is pretty close to my goal, but all the really dark ones keep getting snipped. Makes it more challenging to achieve my goal and keeps me interested. :)
Finally, my last breeding goal:
SH Super Nova NX
Ever since I saw Moon bred a tobiano nexus I was like: MUST have! It has been a slow process because I'm more serious about my KP goal yet I got this gem this season. Only he didn't test superior to his sire (not he is still intact but I plan to geld him. It's just too soon.) but he is exactly what I want. That beautiful blue with that striking black - oh man I love it. :x -
Smokey sooty roan tobiano riding horses, at the moment; my BOP is going to be such a great herdsire in a few years:
SNLT II Danse Draco BOP
and this girl
SNLT III Swansong
also roan/rabicano dunaloosas, like these two
SNLT II MaidOfFire
SNLT II FireAndSteelBreeding quality pintaloosa riding horses and ponies - and having fun with it! -
Maybe this boy I didn't breed him personally but I love dappled tobis. Or maybe its because I love Bay Tobianos so his son fits really well also
5G Joeys Phase X
6G Cosmo X *realizes he's slightly dappled, "That explains why I love him so much"* Honestly I love the dappled painted horses so thats one of my main things even without trying lol -
I am pleased that you love your stud wolf.
I am going to combine 2 lines into 1 line. Since my nexus boy has Rb. I am going to breed him to my Rb and Tobi mares. -
So I can't compact all of my breeding goals into one horse :)) But I think all my foundation boys collectively represent what I breed for, for the most part. My breeding program is all over the place (and will be until I can afford more pastures). I breed for soooo many things.
First is Snowflake, represented by this guy :) He also has Splash 3 but I haven't been as focused on that as I should be so I am starting to look more at that as well
AHH 1G Storm Breaker SNF
Then I have a whole slew of Ices that I breed for represented by these boys. I breed for Ice 7 and 4 (Night Train) and 13 (Thunder Snow). I have started crossing these ices (unintentionally :)) ) and I like the results so far!
AHH 1G Night Train Bi4i7
AHH 1G Thunder Snow BI13
Next I have this guy. He represents DP and Pearl. I primarily use him for my chocolate palomino pearl line. If I would have thought about it when I was GMing him way back when, I would have made him a chocolate palomino and only het pearl but alas, I didn't think of that in time. He also represents the fact that I try and avoid frame considering I removed both his copies :D
AHH 1G Midnight Sun LP
And lastly, this guy is a jumbled mess :)) He is homozygous KP, DP, W3, Pearl and Macchiato. DP macchiato horses are quickly starting to become my favorite :D And throw in some w3 and it's heaven!
AHH 1G VintageVisanity KP
I also breed for S+ and Satin but I do not have any foundations for those lines (I have a 20 yo S+ foundation stud that I got from Cheers but he can't breed anymore sooo... but I do have quite a few offspring from him so he made his contribution :) ). I do have a 2G het satin boy from Cheers as well who is really moving my satin lines along nicely.
AHH 2G Little Reflect Sa
And here's my ideal S+ horse (minus the RH body type. Would prefer warmblood but I'm not picky)
AHH 2G Gold Choco CHO STY -
I had a hard time picking one out then, but it would be these two, hom dp bay with tobiano;
III Missed Out Yo
IV Dark Side
He's a little on the short side which is OK, I'll cry about that another day but the girl is pretty close to everything. Has the red dapples, lovely dark shade but just needs a teeny bit more white! If she had even stockings she would be a winner!#4519 -
This guy has to be my favorite foundation in the game he has everything I breed for right now. Hom KP, Hom Splash M, Hom DP, Het kitm, Het pearl, Hom sooty and Hom flaxen and is brindle he has given me some lovely foals and has had two brindle foals already but they both failed testing
Magical Texas Tea RS -
And this Freaky Friday Foundation boy with Kitm and DP who started it all for me and has had almost 300 foals that I mostly own he has given me some amazing foals so far he is amazing
Freaky Dreamer G1 -
And my Hom KP, Hom DP, Het Kitm, Het pearl, Hom sooty, Hom flaxen King's Ransom mare is my favorite Foundation mare in the game she has had some pretty foals so far
Kings Exotic Treasure RS -
Not specifically the color but the pattern is what I'd like to see more of in my lines

I have a few things I breed for. These are probably the most representative of that :)
KP
RT Nanobots 2G
Macchiato
RT Fury Road 2G
Snowflake
RT Darker Wine 2G
DP
RT Fine Texas Tea 2G
I'm also working on a snowflake/KP cross but I have to wait another season till my girls can breed :) -
Here I'm going for DP Champagne Appaloosas, only just getting focused so I don't really have examples, but I pretty mush want Ghosting with DPThanked by 1Riata

DP Space Cowboy II
DP Gilded Heartthrob II
These two, and hopefully a couple more mares after next season, will start a flashy liver chestnut line. I got lucky with the filly. Apparently, my Autumn's Arrival mare is hiding a DP.
DP Knights Legend RS
I also want to put hom pearl on a bunch of different colors and patterns.
DP World So Cold IV
DP Striker III
Two different ice patterns that I'd like to get on one horse.
DP Twisted Transitor IV
And last but not least, kit w8 and kit m. He has both and I want to make a line of each.
I also have some satin and I'm trying for a snowflake, so I pretty much want everything :)) -
KS Bordeaux II
I just love sabino on the dilutes. Sabino and pearl are my favourite genes, don't have the money to be dabbling in Satin and Macchiato though I love them! -
I picked up a het satin stud for 2600 hb. He's a little uneven, but he throws nice foals, and as long as my mares have the full pasture bonus I can get some intact. The ones that are sasa are pricey, but het works, too. You just have to wait a little longer before you get the color you want.
-
My breeding program is just in its early stages, so I don't really have a 'perfect' horse just yet. What I'm eventually aiming for is really dark sooty buckskins and bays with KP, Tobiano and kit M. Would really like to get some Sooty+ in there too, because of the molted dappling. As off this moment, these are probably the closest I have to the individual parts lol

For my warmblood appaloosas I want to see either spots, lots of them, or spots with beautiful tobiano and splash markings. Absolutely no homozygous reds and I'm hoping to breed out all red, rabicano, and roan. I've had to restart again but these two are the best.
G3A Snow Shimmer
G2A Stripes Candy
For my drafts I also want to see spots or spots with tobiano and splash markings but no reds. I'm about to introduce W2 as well.
D3A Black Winter
D2A Stars Sowing
For my reds I want to see homozygous sooty chestnuts (or liver) appaloosas or appaloosas with splash and tobiano. I'm about to introduce Kit M into this line as well. Just started but I'm super excited. This boy is the best so far but he doesn't have the big beautiful spots or Kit M.
