The quest for awesome appies!
-
I think I’m pretty good numbers-wise with breeding stock now. Thank you, though! :)
-
So I keep narrowing down my Appy mare herd into what should give me the Appies that best match my goals so I have a reasonable number.... and then I acquire more. Oops.
My favorites are:
Freaky Friday! I was so excited that this one came up that I had to splurge to GMT her into (one of) my dream appy. She is a master piece. I love her.
Paradox Superstitious
And I traded for this pony filly, too. Already and appy! No GMT needed. It will be a couple seasons before she’s breedable but that’s okay. I’m super excited.
WO Hometown
And finally, I’ve been watching and watching for Candyappleloosa to come up again. I managed to snag one last night/this morning from the herd helper thread and she got nd1!
Paradox Pun
Which means I should probably part with one or both of my nd1 mares who don’t have patn but I haven’t decided yet.... -
You sure are really going after this appy line...maybe I should've said go after whatever instead of saying yea go for it. Cause you now seem to have an addiction to keep buying more appys like everyone else with buying horses even though they shouldn't and you keep culling and culling and culling and buying and buying and buying...but I can't say anything cause I keep doing that too! :)) Except I'm after pretty horses so a lot qualify for me... :-SS
-
:)) :)) :))
Yeah apparently I found my niche and have become obsessive. =)) -
I make bad decisions.
On the bright side, I now have 2 snowflake mares for the price of one.
This one is also Brindle.
Paradox Tigress
Paradox Melody
They should make pretty babies with my carrier stallion.
Between them and my carrier mare, I’ll actually have a pretty decent chance at a real snowflake line. I didn’t think that was something that I would have. And then I discovered I already had 2 carriers. Pretty spiffy. -
Oh wow they are gorgeous!
-
This whole thread was so much fun to read, and I'm not even a big appy person. Excited for you, Paradox!
-
Thank you!
This breeding season was a little bit of a bust and a little bit of a success at the same time. My leopard mares kept throwing solids.
My one and only snowflake got spayed:
Paradox Eskimo
But I did get a nice Liver colt out of my Freaky Friday mare. Of course he had to be a colt and not a filly. :p He is superior to his sire but not as good as my best colt from that sire. I’m planning on keeping him around for his colour, though, because he’s better than my other two DP appy colts.
Paradox Suspense
My Candyappleloosa stallion and mare gave me a Brindle snowcap filly! I’m thrilled to pieces with her.
Paradox Celebrate
I got some other nice snow caps, too.
Paradox Design
This one seems dark for a single sooty pally. I’m wondering if she might be DP. Her momma is cremello so I can’t tell.
Paradox Tinkerbelle
Paradox Risen Royal psf
Paradox Mistaken hetSF
I got a couple leopards that stayed intact, too.
Paradox River Rock
Paradox Hope
And finally a couple of double homozygous fillies!
Paradox Victorious
Paradox Frozen
And I got this super fancy blue papered lady from an outside sire!
Paradox Fancy hetSF
-
Congrats! I also got lucky and found out that I have two amazing snowflake carrier's! One of them is my beloved stallion Glittered from Spook! The other is One Lucky Filly who has given me some gorgeous baby's! And I found out they are by getting a glorious intact snowflake GIRL!
Glittered from Spook
One Lucky Filly
I can't wait at ALL to use her to start up my snowflake line!
Sweet Jimmny HELLOPost edited by Wolvevenfrost at 2019-01-25 13:23:27 -
Awesome! Congrats!!
-
Hi, my name is Paradoxphoenix, and I have a mare problem. I cull them down and then add in just as many or more than I culled in the first place....
My newest additions are both exceptional producers and the chestnut leopard has Sabino 1, which I also love.
MSR Potential274Pro xKIT
MSR PRO7549492 AppSAB1PAS
This gal I bought much earlier in the season, but I’m so proud of her! She’s a Fuel to the Fire who happens to have gotten the appy genes when she was created. I love her. Such a pretty lady!
PR Fuel to the Fire
-
They're gorgeous! I'm waiting on the second to breed mine, so hoping for some intact foals this time. While I'm waiting though I was checking out yours because I purchased a couple of yours. Mines not all appies, because I've got some solids mixed in to carry the color I want the line to carry. Here's hoping we can both get these going, though you've got a pretty good handle on yours already.
-
Oh, cool!
I pulled an egg from my Freaky Friday (Paradox Superstition), my snowflake carrier, and my two snowflake mares. I’ll create those foals tomorrow. Then, on the 5th, I have a bunch of mares ready with their 30 day bonus. Here’s to hoping I have more colour luck this season! -
First foals of the season!
Finally got a filly from Superstition! And she’s a double homozygous appy!
Paradox Cat
Still have no luck from my snowflakes, though. Darn the negative side of the 50% Bith these fillies got spayed anyway, so I guess it doesn’t matter.
Paradox Missed Again
Paradox Pretty
They’re all from eggs so at least I get to try again! -
I got visited by the filly fairy with my bootstrap line and my ET foals so I thought my luck would hold with my first round of pasture breedings, and I would get a bunch of blue papered fillies to go with my A papered colt. (since they are all my expros and the mares have the pasture bonus). Sadly, I was wrong. 6 out of 10 were colts. All B papered. My one and only blue filly is solid (I may save up to GMT her) and the rest are B papered. One was solid. At least the coloured B fillies are still useful! :)
One is ND1!
Paradox Baby Ruth
One is double homozygous!
Paradox Double Stuffed
If he still tests sup to sire, in spite of being B, I may keep this colt intact since he’s double homozygous.
Paradox Decision
-
Still getting mostly colts with the first round of foals from my other two appy stallions. I’m waiting on the rest of my mares to hit 30 days in pasture. Hopefully i get more fillies then. :p
Only 3 out of 10 foals by Seeker were fillies. One, in spite of the 30 day bonus, still papered Yellow. Her momma is now spayed because she just doesn’t produce to my standards.
Of the other two fillies, this one is double homozygous!
Paradox Pomegranate
This colt is very handsome. I’m going to geld him and keep him as a show horse.
Paradox Baron
One of out of 6 of Phantom’s foals were fillies.
But look how pretty she is!
Paradox Fae
This colt is staying intact for the moment:
Paradox Lime Light psf
This one I’ll probably geld and show.
Paradox Proud
This one I gelded so he can be a super pretty show horse.
Paradox Flint
Now we wait for the rest of the mares to hit 30 days. :p -
Gorgeous! Especially enjoy the large blankets.
-
Me, too! Large blankets and leopards are my favorite. I like the double homozygous for breeding only because they have a greater chance of giving me large blankets and leopard. :p
-
That's what I'm trying with my chinchilla line, Stygian Worchrystals.
-
I ended up gelding the double homozygous colt I posted yesterday because my favorite mare gave me a double homozygous colt by my chestnut leopard stallion. He tests superior to his sire! He’s awesome.
Paradox Traveler -
These are the two I have that tested superior to Sire. They have different sires. I've got three stallions fantasied to Chinchilla, I'm hoping to do one more before they switch genes.
SW Spot a Pro C
SW Blessed Silver C
This one also tested superior to his sire, but he's a solid and not quite what I'm looking for. Leaving him intact for now, but may sell or snip later.
SW Wishing Pot CPost edited by bluchrystals at 2019-02-06 10:33:11 -
I love the second one! He’s got a blue eye, too!
-
Yeap. Unless something else comes up in the process, I'll be keeping both of those to continue their sires lines. I'll breed them back to all the carrier fillies I've got. Should throw mostly chinchillas that way, or at least a higher margin. Hopefully I'll get some good ones.
-
Best of luck!
-
You, too.
-
Look at this little pseudo leopard filly I got from my two snowflake carriers! She only has one PATN1 gene (Sire doesn’t have PATN1), but if you didn’t know that you’d never guess it just looking at her.
She missed the snowflake, though. :( There’s a good chance she carries. And she did get fun colour genes from mom.
Paradox Faux Finish -
She's cute! How do you get snowflake? I've seen a few appys with it, but I can't tell the specific gene that causes it.
-
Snowflake is a hidden gene. It's on the same set of alleles that control varnish on all appoloosas. Apparently there is more code than we see to making ponies.
-
Thank you, Seaswell.
-
If you'd like some different snowflake genes (plus liver genes lol) I can pull straws from this stud, or you can breed to him. He tests as good as sire, he is a sport pony though
1 Rockin you SF -
Thank you for the offer but I don't have any second gen appy mares old enough for breeding yet.
-
Ooooh. I do, though....
I was going to use them with a possible carrier stud I had mature this year, but.... -
:)) told you we need all those spots. Have to have at least one of every pattern!
-
Lol I ended up with some beauties in my pasture breed this season, I'll post some later
-
This thread is going to go on forever :))
-
Yep! And I hope it does cause I very much enjoy just reading back through it! =))
-
Well here's another to add to it Wolvevenfrost! Too bad he's only as good as his sire. I'll keep him intact, just in case, but he may be up to buy soon.
DW Gold StrikePost edited by bluchrystals at 2019-02-08 15:31:17 -
=))
Well if you do, I'd very much be interested in him! I love splash horses and the fact that he hides it. -
Double homozygous! I always love those. I’m planning on using my double homozygous colt to cross on my non-appies to add in fun stuff like Gulastra Plum and whatnot. Guaranteed appy spots on all the offspring!
-
I won’t have many 3G foals this season, but here are two so far!
He papered A, which is exactly what I want from a 3G colt. His PT score is disappointing, but he’ll stay intact until I have a superior replacement. He is the grand offspring of my first Appy stallion, Paradox Phantom.
Phoenix Hooligan
This filly is also a grand offspring of that first stallion. She is absolutely beautiful! Sadly, she was spayed, but her PT score is good enough for me to keep her and show her.
Phoenix Serenity
-
I was going to prefix 3G and 4G with “Phoenix” instead of “Paradox” But I’m not sure I’m loving it.
-
Enigma, mystify, or parable. All a form of Paradox. I can come up with a few more if you'd like. I think I like Mystify the best, myself.

1 FS freckles44947
I tossed this stud in my pasture just to see what I'd get since he just turned 3. Definitely not unimpressed. I got 2 snowflakes (didn't know he was a carrier) and a brindle that isn't pictured

-
Large blankets or leopards are what I'm planning on keeping. I'm still thinning my mares so I haven't had a chance to go through this season's foals yet. I'll be selling a few of the solids in that listing.
-
Well if we're all sharing our appies I might as well!
Oops doesn't work, I forgot how to do it haha!Post edited by Wolvevenfrost at 2019-02-08 19:21:20 -
Just showing appys? Search with your breeder ID, set lp as must have, copy the web address, paste to post.

Oh I think I was trying to link it hahaha! Let me see...
