There have been some changes to cream and gray that have made otherwise almost boring horse colors really exciting now. You might want to take a look at how the new coats are expressing and see if there's something new you like. My new favorites with the recent changes are gray with champagne, and silver smokey black with S+. They're beautiful!

My original project was livers, which slowly morphed into liver dun with DFP1/2, and that's currently my primary line. I branched them out into a fantasy ice/phantom line when I started getting more into those genes. I have a few non liver duns sprinkled in as well, as byproducts of the DFP line, who are too pretty to auction :)

I recently retired my clean slate protect, which I just wasn't giving enough love and attention.

I had my chinchilla stud and primary mare pass (who were some of my very first GMTd ponies), which spurred me to revive the line with a new chocolate chinchilla pair.

My rainbow ink/toner ponies are still going strong, but I need to clean up the lines a bit. I'm thinking of breeding for color more instead of just stats, which is opposite of what I've been doing with most of my lines bahaha.

I recently branched out from only warmbloods and started a few draft lines. In preparation of the grey update, I started a C/Y papered grey GR line as a challenge. I also made a platinum draft yellow line which I lovingly refer to as my ghost ponies, who are super light cream/dun/champagne. I had not really played around with champagne much in the past, and fell in love with the super dilute patterns you could get.

My current favorite is my only private line, which is my pomegranate satin draft ponies. They start as boosted foundations, and have just hit gen 3. There is a ton of different colors already, and I'm just loving the look. I'm super, super strict on what passes in this line, so it's been slow going, but super satisfying! I love showing them off cause I'm super proud of them ;)

I think lately I've been just exploring different color combinations. Liver and DFP1 and 2 will always be part of my lineup I think. I've gotten more out of my comfort zone with different genetics, and I'm loving it. In the end, do what brings you joy :) I always wanted a draft line, but there aren't many draft breeders in this server. So i said eh screw it, I want to do it so why stop myself?

I'm glad to have you back, and I hope i gave you some ideas!

I believe bulk straw collection is for premium accounts :)

Also welcome back! Sorry to hear about your studs but maybe you could find other things you're interested in a try something new! Feel free to browse my studs if you'd ever like some straws

Thank you all for your advice! This is getting the gears turning a little and I'm going to do a bunch of perusing.

And it sounds like I need to get a month of premium when I get a new stud made so I can pull straws in bulk. That would have saved me so much grief lol

I have a thing for dark horses with het nexus or ice genes.
