What to breed with...
-
I have a really pretty White Spotted Black Frame mare that I've been wanting to breed, but I've never had anything of this color - What would you guys recommend breeding her with? I am all about getting colors, I don't really like solids. But I haven't dealt with black & white that much. Thanks!

She's a pretty mare!
White and frame are both a bit tricky to breed with, and with her Extensive white factor there are some crosses that will result in a dead foal. (Remember that these are pixel ponies and no actual foals are harmed in this process!) Somewhere there's a chart more specific than the advice I can give you right now but I can't find it at the moment, so:
Frame (the Olw, or lethal white) bit of her genotype, is 100% fatal when it's homozygous. It's super easy to avoid that: just don't breed her to a stallion who also has frame. Otherwise, there is a 25% chance that the resulting foal will inherit a copy from both parents and you won't get anything.
Kit (her W2, or white 2) is trickier. Basically each kit gene combines with the white factor (hers is Extensive) and maths together and if the resulting foal is over 100% white because of those genes, it results in a dead foal. The easiest way to avoid that is just to avoid stallions who have white (whether it's white 1, 2, 3, or 4, or any of the sabinos.) I believe that W3 and W4 are generally safer than W1 and W2, and as long as the stud has low (none, minimal, low) white factor you should be able to get away with crossing them anyway, just always be aware in the back of your head that it's not 100% foolproof.
Aside from all of THAT given her lines I would look at a nice-colored 2nd gen B. There are a ton of those in pretty much every color and pattern under the sun; the search feature is amazing. After a very quick look at the public stud board I spy offerings like these guys:

The last two are riskier than the first two, but also more colorful. Especially Marvelous Holiday; W10 is an anniversary gene and you don't see it come up like that too often.
