Hey guys! I've had A LOT going on in my personal life lately and all I can say is thank God for this game and community; it has been a great distraction. I haven't been feeling so great lately and giveaways always make me feel better. I feel like I've been too focused on my stable lately and haven't been giving back like I love to do. :)

All you have to do is post your current goal in the game and post what licenses you have. Goals can be anything - a new barn, building show strings, a project horse, etc. :)

LCorona001 · Feb 17, 2020 7:02 PM

Heyo! I’m currently on just expanding and intensely breeding my Icarus line (Chinchilla/Satin/Nexus).

I have licenses for chinchilla, mushroom, watercolor, onyx, nacre, Ice 16, Ice 4, splash M, plaid, and phantom Autumn

Thank you!

gradualpatience · Feb 17, 2020 7:05 PM

I'm working on being patient! For me this means making a show herd and getting an upgrade so then I can really get into the game~ After a good show herd I think my next step would be getting my first additional barn

No licenses

I hope things get better soon <3 Just looking in a positive direction is a good thing, bit by bit can come later

paradoxphoenix · Feb 17, 2020 7:08 PM

Hope your personal life settles down!

My biggest goal is to grow my Era 7 4G herd so I can have plenty of 5Gs to breed when they mature. I think I only have an intact superior colt in my 5th gen and no mares to breed him to

I’m also hoping to breed their PT scores nice and high so they produce good show horses for me and stay on the leader boards.

LadyLaurana · Feb 17, 2020 7:18 PM

I totally agree about how wonderful this game and community is as a distraction. My real life has been pretty crazy lately, too, so I sympathize! Here's hoping things calm down and level out for you soon!

As far as my goals, sometimes I feel like I'm trying to do too many things at once!

I'm working on raising my daily bonus, gradually culling out show horses with lower PTs in favor of foals with higher PTs, and at the moment I'm trying to save up IVs to buy a new show barn - I'm hoping to be patient enough to get a new 1k barn, but it's soooo hard.

I'm also trying to hone in on what I'm breeding for, and make sure I'm turning out quality foals each generation so that I'm seeing a constant improvement. I'm sort of aiming for a melting pot of genes, and just throwing everything I think is pretty into it to see what pretty babies come out! I have licenses for mushroom, onyx, watercolor, nacre, plaid, chinchilla, and all of the phantom genes. I'm starting with black bases as much as possible, and a few silver blacks in there so that I'll get the pretty dappled chinchillas if I pay enough attention when I'm breeding. I try to stay away from pretty much everything except black with some white markings, whether it's appaloosa, or some splash, or whatever. Of course, who knows, I could change all of that in a month or two! Everything is so much fun to experiment with, this game has definitely been a haven when I'm stressed.

SaberK · Feb 17, 2020 8:47 PM

I'm focusing on Quality Appaloosa riding horses and a line of Ice 1 horses. I have a half empty show barn, and a half empty red papered Appaloosa pasture. I'm working on filling both.

PaintedDesert · Feb 17, 2020 9:04 PM

My little ponies are coming along nicely. My second gen is almost old enough to breed. With my Christmas ponies and now with the Valentine's ponies, I'm going to work on a line of liver and or chocolate palomino ponies. My biggest concern is running out of barn space. I've been having to sell a bunch of my colts instead of keeping them for show horses because I don't have room.

Oh and next breeding season, I need to find this little girl a good boyfriend.

I use this game a lot as an escape from real life stress. I'm glad it can serve the same purpose for you and I hope things will look up at your end sometime soon.

I only recently started this account after getting hooked on the forest server. At the moment my main goal is supposed to be getting show ponies and saving for an upgrade and a barn. But I admit to constantly getting distracted by all the beautiful babies.

On the long term I'd love to breed a line of cobs. I have been playing with a few but ideally I'd want some GMT lab genes on them, so it will still be a long wait. I also want to get into bootstrapping a bit - it doesn't seem as popular on this server as on the forest one, but there it has been a good way to get high PT show foals whilst having lots of fun.

GildedFire · Feb 17, 2020 9:55 PM

My short term goal is to get a couple more show barns.

But my long term goal is to breed *Star and * Gold homozygous watercolor and homozygous onyx horses. I got my first Homozygous Onyx and watercolor baby this season and she papered blue so there is a start to my lines. My other line is breeding Homozygous Satin, and Kit M babies

SilverCreekFarm · Feb 18, 2020 1:23 AM

short term goal, breed all my horses before the season ends D':

long term goal, cut down my lines even more, replace some of my plainer livers with satin and or mushroom livers, add nexus and satin into my existing chinchilla lines, and start to get more intact 5g and 6g horses :)

Chesneythecorgi · Feb 18, 2020 4:45 AM

I’m sorry things are hectic for you right now. Hope everything is okay! I use this game as a stress relief and to escape real life too.

My goals are to produce and keep intact superior foals. I started comparing this season and have gone through my entire intact line and really trimmed down a lot. Where I struggled to cull and kept some AGA were my snowflake, satin, chinchilla and mushroom lines. It’s really hard to snip those bc I’ve put real money into them and or they’re just so pretty!

I have chinchilla, mushroom and splash m licenses

Xzeina · Feb 18, 2020 5:36 AM

I'm attempting to get my first 1k barn. And sadly all my other goals have to go on pause until I get it. The good news is I managed to get 26 IVs already! : )

Crowned1 · Feb 18, 2020 6:34 AM

Your generosity is awesome - giving things away always makes me feel better too! Hope life settles down for you and you start feeling better soon!
I have two big things I'm saving for now. First - I really need to get a big barn so I can organize my horses and sell back all of the tiny 15 stall barns I've accumulated in my first few months here.

Second is this boy who I am planning to make my very first GMT project. I'd love to at least make him hom sooty, and add appaloosa and PATN1. I'm trying to decide if I want to remove his roan. The dream goal is to add sooty+ and/or DP and kitM. The reach for the stars goal is to add satin and lace. :) I don't have any fantasy licenses yet.

My ID is 258397.

Totally feeling this right now ... hopefully life slows down a little and picks up in the good places. Right now we are (hopefully) seeing the last of the Arctic Cold snaps ... woke up this morning to a balmy -34C ... which is kinda funny cause four days ago they were calling for -4C ... yah I think their math is a bit off on that one. So done with this right now, and its been a good winter ... not that cold (facepalm)

Breeding goals ... looking to get a bit more Kp2 going in my lines as well as my Chocolate
First and foremost this guys maiden trip through the satin Appie lines

CRVS Khansuudyn Dark

Het Chocolate, maybe snowflake carrier, het satin ... kinda excited to see.

Then this guy's trip through the pastures

CRVS Beatus Donum
Maybe Kp2 ... maybe not ... so much funs lol so far the only sup to sire colt I have from Donum ... so we'll see

And then this guys maiden trip through the pastures ... i know he's a warmblood and I usually don't breed that, but he is het choc and might be het snowflake ... so we'll see.

CRVS Chocolate Pride

I trying to get most the none fantasy genes into a line (lol) I'm not rolling in the hbs so instead of GTMing I kinda have to do it this way. Looking to get one 3rd gen Appy Stud colt sup to sire with Tiger Eye, ND1, Choc, Snowflake for the Appies. One Kp2,KP, Sabino2, Choc, tiger eye, nd1 Sup to sire stud colt for my KP lines.
then one of each of those but with satin for my satin lines.

Then ... through the kindness of Christmas ... I was gifted with some Nexus straws, out of those straws I got two that passed all testing and came out sup to dam and sire

CRVS Resident Restrict NEX

CRVS Notices Francisco NEX
So I'm going to see what I can get out of him ... not sure yet. I'm not a huge fantasy breeder ... for restricted genes I only have splash M, Mushroom and Phantom Spiders ... so this would be my toe touching the water fantasy gene breed. They are more a fun thing then a breeding goal. I tend to focus on the KP and Snowflake.

SharayahStables · Feb 18, 2020 4:07 PM

Okay, everyone thus far has received either a gift or a PM to receive their gift!

Thanks for the kind words. I'm hoping things start looking up soon. :)

poniesandaphd · Feb 18, 2020 4:59 PM

Hope things start getting better for you! I also had some crazy things happening in my personal life the last week... some good, some bad... trying to just focus on the good parts! Hope you can, too. <3 <br />
My current goal is to get a line of non-dun small sport ponies! I recently purged (most of) my warmbloods, just a few left in the sale barn haha. But I really enjoy the challenge of breeding smaller so I decided to switch to ponies!

NDRANCHER95 · Feb 18, 2020 5:55 PM

Hope things get better for you! I have 4 kids under the age of 5 and im 5 months along with my 5th so i underdtand stress. I use this game as an escape when i get the free time.

My goal on this game once i finish culling my barns out is to copy this mares genetics.

1gNDR Ranchers Heart
she has been my favorite mare in my barns. eventually i would like to add Lace to the line ive started with her. Eventually i will be looking for another liver like her to replace her. i have the Lace and onyx licences

HorseAngel · Feb 18, 2020 7:20 PM

How fun! Thanks much for the giveaway! Hope things well settle down for you soon! :) This is a great game to be playing!

I have quite a few breeding goals because it was so hard to have just one or two! I only do riding horses or riding ponies! My main is Appaloosa with a focus on Leopard Appies! I also really like liver pearls and KitM! I am currently waiting on my 3 gens to be of age to be able to get a few 4 gens, hoping for one or two Gold/Star soon! I only have a small fantasy heard and haven't really gotten much done with them but I do hope to start a Watercolor Onyx line in the coming months(had gotten the licences a while ago then got busy with life stuff lol) I also love Ice 8 and Nexus but that's all more on the long term! I am currently trying to save up for at lease 3 big GMT projects that I want done and am in need a LOT of IV'S while on the other hand I am still
trying to (slowly) build up my showing bonus and finally got a bigger show barn to really try to bring it up but I still need to fill it yet this month and haven't quite got enough hb's to either of those things, so a few good show horses are Always nice! Also really want to finish/start the few project mares I have!

1 Warm N Salty Het DP SB1

Hoping to be able to make him at leas het KitM, Hom PANT and another copy of DP.....a few other thinks but those are the main ones for him! I am saving like crazy for him to be done,lol!

1 Mysterious Tiger

Want another copy of tiger eye for her, Nexus and maybe an ice 13....Not sure yet! Wanted to finish her so I could use her this month or the next.

A few others but I think you get the idea!

SharayahStables · Feb 19, 2020 5:12 PM

Thanks guys! I’ll send out more gifts this evening!

HorseAngel · Feb 20, 2020 8:46 AM

Oh my gosh, I love the straws from him! Thank you! His perfect for my Watercolor Onyx plans!

spotpixe · Feb 20, 2020 10:13 AM

Gotta love a good distraction when life gets complicated! I hope it settles down for you, though.
My current goal is to get a second foundation stud with all the right genes - I'm still trying to figure out the shortest path, but I know I'm at least going to have to save up for S+. The goal is a second hom DP, SstyS+, buckskin stud, preferably B-papered, like this guy:

Vitucadrus

Edit - new likely candidate, because I can find literally zero indicators that the other one has DP, and adding cream is cheaper than adding DP:

9835492 - S+, one DP, Ccr, and a gender swap, and then I'll be done. Trying to talk myself into using RL money for the S+, cuz man will that make it a shorter saving period! XD

SharayahStables · Feb 23, 2020 6:45 AM

Sorry for the delay, life got crazy! Sending more surprises out now :)

gradualpatience · Feb 23, 2020 7:59 AM

Really hope this has been helping make life a little more enjoyable recently <3 And thanks for doing all of this

SharayahStables · Feb 23, 2020 4:14 PM

You’re very welcome! :x

Katiedid · Feb 23, 2020 5:01 PM

Bought some watercolor and lace genes, to go with my phantom pumpkin line. Hopefully it will be getting some really cool horses out of the mix. Also working on working in some Nexus into it as well.

SharayahStables · Feb 23, 2020 5:20 PM

Sent you some straws.

AlloraKerrhy · Feb 23, 2020 6:36 PM

Any way you could gift me some patience? Waiting is something I'm not great at. :))

SandyCreekAcres · Feb 23, 2020 6:50 PM

I don't need a reward, but you might get a chuckle out of my current immediate goal:

Get all the foals out of pasture before Thursday becomes Friday this week. :D

spotpixe · Feb 24, 2020 6:52 PM

Thank you! One step closer :D

katwin · Feb 24, 2020 7:30 PM

My current goal is to grow my show string and to start breeding liver chestnuts. I also want to upgrade my account if I’m still just as addicted a few weeks from now.

I played for a few months about 4 years ago but just getting back into it now as I’m finished university anymore and can finally get my head above water. There’s definitely a learning curve but I’m loving it so far!

I have no licences :)
