[Quinsta] March Breeding Season

[red_uni387]

DUN ROAN FRIESIAN AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

6844. Friesian M Blue Dun (Gruello) Roan, front right Fetlock, front left Sock, back right Coronet, Irregular Blaze (Calm and sweet, a mover)

I was so excited that I started rambling to my biology teacher about genetics and quinsta XD

[Winged]

Alnaeyah i don't think it makes a difference once they reach 80%.

Has anyone has a grade breeding come pure this season? The grade breeding i did didn't give pure and i'm half hoping there's the same glitch there was last season xD

Yay Runi, he'll be useful for my project

[WillowDragon]

So it's $10 per extra claim ticket? Hmm... I'll Definately need at least one! hehe. Will have a look in the morning if I has the monies!!

[Sunchaser]

This might seem stupid but can anyone tell me if my two grades passed cream on? I think the bay is not cream but wondering if the other has a touch of cream

[Winged]

Yes, Smokey Black is a black base with a single cream gene.

[Sarah Badr]

Smoky Black (black), Sooty Buckskin (brown), Palomino (chestnut) and Buckskin (bay) are all creme colors.

Double cremes are Smoky Creme (black), Cremello (chestnut) and Perlino (bay and brown).

Thank you

Has anyone has a grade breeding come pure this season? The grade breeding i did didn't give pure and i'm half hoping there's the same glitch there was last season xD

I did!    I got three grey Clydesdales 

*flails excitedly*  This month is the 2nd anniversary of the start of that particular project.

[Kahlira]

ohh! Yay for grey clydes! This makes me happy XD

[Kadana Sorano]

Well my goal was to breed a cream TB, and I have done that now.. just not via grades like I was trying to do lol

"2577   Mar. 10, 2013 22:46   Kadana Sorano   #556845   #556844      Full Off-World   6972. Thoroughbred F Palomino, front right Coronet, back right Coronet, back left Coronet, Star (Prone to shying and nervousness, a mover)   Kadana Sorano   No"

So I guess technically my breeding project is complete?  even though THIS is the one I was using to try and get that with..

"2762   Mar. 13, 2013 13:41   Kadana Sorano   #558812   #558208   Step 2 Also   Full Off-World   7147. Grade F Perlino, front right Fetlock, front left Pastern, back right Coronet, back left Pastern, Star (Generally willing, but occasionally nervous, a mover)   Kadana Sorano   No"

and this was the other attempt to breed cream to TB via grade breedings.. 

"2576   Mar. 10, 2013 22:37   Kadana Sorano   #556846   #558208   Step 2   Full Off-World   6971. Grade F Sooty Buckskin, front right Coronet, front left Coronet, back right Pastern, back left Pastern, Snip (Calm and sweet, a mover)   Kadana Sorano   No"

If I can get bonus tickets I shall be keeping her, but since I did get lucky and get a Palo TB from a pure TB breeding, this cute gal has to go onto the "Maybe" list, cause I can;t pass on the Palo TB..

So hrm.. I suppose I continue on now, and go for double cream TB? Anyway, I'm not complaining about getting lucky, not at all! 

[SkySong]

I've got Silver dapple brown from a white grade! Totally unexpected. Three of them, too!

[Ravvana]

Why universe, why? One of my projects was a complete success, and the other was a highly unexpected success... but the wrong gender! I was breeding for a flaxen chestnut frame overo mustang stud, and I got all that as a girl. Now to decide if I should use the MM on her and just make my character gender confused, or keep working in future seasons?

Ravvana - #554057 x #554221 ::  6907. Mustang F Flaxen Chestnut Frame Overo, front right Coronet, back right Coronet, Snip (Generally willing, but rather excitable, a mover)

[CutieePiee]

That's a gamble, Ravv. xD We all know how unpredictable the breeding dice gods are.

[Daimas]

EEEE Flaxen Cremello TB, Silver dapple Smokey black Morgan!

And silvanon... Uhhh somehow 555226 is bred to herself??

[Luv007]

My least favorite gene is silver dapple..... and it seems that all of my mares, and the stud I used all carry it??  Because all but one or two of my minis came up with silver dapples..... 

I know nothing about Quin genes, sooooo does this mean I should avoid using this stud again, or is it my mares that are the problem?

[springacres]

DUN ROAN FRIESIAN AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

6844. Friesian M Blue Dun (Gruello) Roan, front right Fetlock, front left Sock, back right Coronet, Irregular Blaze (Calm and sweet, a mover)

I was so excited that I started rambling to my biology teacher about genetics and quinsta XD

Congrats runi!!!!  No silver friesians for me, BUT!
7114. Luestin F Smokey Black Roan, front right Coronet, front left Fetlock, back right Sock, back left Sock, Stripe (Generally willing, but occasionally nervous, a mover)

and this guy came out exactly as ordered! XD
7123. Fjord M Dun Sooty Buckskin, front left Pastern, back left Pastern, Blaze (Sweet and generally willing, but occasionally excitable, a mover)

The hardest part will be choosing which of my other foals to keep...  3 of my 4 QH came out with minimal white, but there's also this guy:
6861. Clydesdale M Silver Dapple Bay Splash Overo, front right Sock, front left Stocking, back right Fetlock, back left Sock, Star and Stripe (Calm and steady)

And Florica's foal this season:
6862. Gypsy Vanner F Silver Dapple Bay Tobiano, front right Coronet, back left Coronet, Irregular Blaze (Slow and stubborn)

[Silvanon]

So if a grade is more than the 80 something percent does it give a better chance of it having a non grade foal?

No, the chance is always 50%.

[springacres]

Silver can only be "carried" (masked) by chestnut-based, gray-based or white horses, so it could show up if you bred (for instance) a chestnut mare who masked silver to a non-silver bay stud, if the foal was bay, brown or black.  Silver is a dominant gene, but will only show on non-chestnut, non-grey, non-white horses.  For instance, my mare Polca is genetically silver dapple, but it doesn't show because she's a flaxen chestnut:

http://www.secundi.net/critterpage.php?ID=550057

I bred her to a blue dun stud who is zz (non-silver):
http://www.secundi.net/critterpage.php?ID=405908

and got this result:
7187. Gypsy Vanner M Silver Dapple Black, front right Coronet, back right Sock, back left Coronet, Interrupted Stripe (Prone to shying and nervousness, a mover)

Since the sire is non-silver (he's E_ gg ww and would show silver if he had it) I know the silver came from the dam.

[LaneyAngel]

Genetics are an interesting creature..... I use 2 black luestins and wind up with a flaxen chestnut. Rofl.

[Ryuukokoro]

Oh I had that happen before, Laney! Haha so both black parents were Ee... and even then it was only a 25% chance that they would both pass the 'e' lol. Not great when you're trying for black on purpose, but interesting. XD;

[WillowDragon]

Ignore me!

Thank you!  That's very helpful!

[Pinkshadow]

How "white" will these foal be:
6998. Miniature Horse F Silver Dapple Perlino Sabino Overo, front left Fetlock, back right Stocking, back left Pastern, Faint Star (Calm and steady)

7000. Miniature Horse M Smokey Cream Roan, front right Pastern, front left Pastern, back right Pastern, back left Sock, Snip (Prone to shying and nervousness, a mover)

- I don't think ive ever seen those coats irl? Will they look white?

[Ryuukokoro]

[Pinkshadow]

Thanks ryuu

[springacres]

Genetics are an interesting creature..... I use 2 black luestins and wind up with a flaxen chestnut. Rofl.

They are indeed.  A few of my more surprising results:

http://www.secundi.net/critterpage.php?ID=301199 (flaxen, from black tobiano x mouse dun)

http://www.secundi.net/critterpage.php?ID=514655 (silver, from black x flaxen red dun splash)

http://www.secundi.net/critterpage.php?ID=528949 (silver, from black tobiano x cremello dun splash blanket)

http://www.secundi.net/critterpage.php?ID=553606 (silver, from flaxen chestnut x blue dun leopard)

[Kahlira]

Yeah black is a tricky thing XD But I love how your one came out, Laneylove! I really do! She sounds fantastic!

Anywho, Silv! Will you be selling bonus tickets this time perhaps?

[springacres]

I'm sure she will, she probably just hasn't gotten around to putting a thread up yet.  (Although if she isn't, then I need to change one of my claims >_> But I'm sure she'll let us know.)

[YourLoveOnly]

This was discussed on page 1 along with the reasoning for putting a limit on those sales, so I do believe they will be sold again this season ^^

[LaneyAngel]

I just LOL because when Kah said I could use her mare, I had choice of a flaxen chestnut, a flaxen chestnut, or black. Because she was the odd one out, I picked black. And also picked a black stally to pair her to. And still wound up with flaxen chestnut, ROFL!!!!
But I agree Kah, she does sound freaking amazing!!! SPOTTY BUM FTW!!!!
And a mare to boot! Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

[CutieePiee]

Just a note to Silv, I won't be using any MM tickets so both the foals I claimed are ready to go and can be colored whenever. Just in case you start coloring before the claiming deadline.

[EquineGoddess101]

EquineGoddess101 lays claim to:

Keilin Alyr - #557431 x #558700 ::  7130. Morgan F Grey, front left Fetlock, Star (Generally willing, but rather excitable, a mover)

red_uni387 - #557412 x -- ::  6849. Morgan F Dun Smokey Black, front right Fetlock, back left Sock (Calm and sweet, a mover)

Thank you!

[YourLoveOnly]

Equine you have to claim Quinsta through the main site instead of posting them here. I have to run out now, but if you need help I can explain it when I'm back

[EquineGoddess101]

Thank you for the heads-up. After clicking around, I think I got it =) When I went to View Agency Breedings, the Claimed column reads "Normal Claim" for both foals... Success?!

I'm currently adventuring to see if I can find any other tickets for Quin... picked up 3 LilBitties in the process!

[YourLoveOnly]

Tickets for Quin can only be found when adventuring for the Quinsta Agency. I think LilBitties can only be found when adventuring for the LilBitty agency?

And yes, that would be succesful then ^^

[Ryuukokoro]

Sorry if I've missed this, I tried checking the whole thread but I haven't seen it posted anywhere yet. When's the end date for claiming foals this month?

[YourLoveOnly]

The opening post of the thread says:

Ethendil stands up and announces, "We hope you are all have a wonderful breeding season.  Foal listings have been posted.  You now have until the end of March 23rd to get your foal claims in!"

[Ryuukokoro]

Haha thanks YLO! My eye skipped right over it and went to the paragraph below the line. XD;;

Good, still a few more days!

[Leafy]

I know I put in for a good sized handful of breedings, both full off-world and random stallions, I'm guessing they got eaten? o_O

[Ryuukokoro]

Oh no, Leafy! You got all the mares and stallions approved, right? Hopefully it's just a bug in the system. :x

[LaneyAngel]

*squirms in anticipation of coloured foals*

Wow.... Need to find something awesome to claim this season.... Don't want to waste my second claim slot like I did last season

[Leafy]

They were all my own breedings, no approvals needed, was supposed to be getting a bunch of grades lol

[YourLoveOnly]

You still need to hit Approve for your own breedings on the 'View Agency Breedings' page, I'm guessing you maybe didn't do that since you didn't think it was needed? If the approval button for both parents hasn't been clicked they don't show up in Silv's list so no foals come of it.

[Leafy]

Ah oh well, my own fail, I keep forgetting what a retard I am

[Winged]

Thinking about buying a MM ticket, but need to check something first. Could one of these photos be used for Black Sabino Overo? Doesn't have to be an exact mimic.

[SkySong]

I'm pretty sure the second one can at least, but I think that's more up to Silv, or at least someone who has more horse knowledge than me.

[Kadana Sorano]

Ahh poor Leafy!  Maybe you can snag some foals form peoples extra's?

ANd nope YLO Lil'Bitties can be found adventuring with any agency, I found one adventuring for FCFC Beds

[Daimas]

Thinking about buying a MM ticket, but need to check something first. Could one of these photos be used for Black Sabino Overo? Doesn't have to be an exact mimic.

The second one is definitely a Sabino but I dunno.. the first one might be one too, just patchy

[Winged]

Thanks for the help I'll but a MM ticket anyway and wait for Silv's yes or no before sending in the request.

[Sarah Badr]

Is that Sabino or Rabicano?
