  • Hi y’all! I’m a journeyman farrier who is stuck at home recovering from a fractured heel. I’m glad I found this game and all of you lovely people because I was bored stiff until I did!
  • Welcome AnonymousNobody! Hope you 'heal' fast! (rolling my own eyes at myself!)

    There's a lot to learn, so let us know if you have any questions. We enjoy helping new players out!

  • Hello! I am new, if you have any tips fell free to tell me them!
  • Hi olivia13! Welcome to the game. Best tip is to read the various beginner guides available. The FAQ/User Guide on the left menu is the best, and there are also some beginners tips at the top of the main forum. The VERY best part is that everyone is really nice, around here, and will be glad to give you a hand getting started, if you ask!

  • hi Confluence, I have millions of questions! would it be good for me to have a mare or a stallion with an actual pedigree? Did I understand correctly, if i do not click a "breed" button on my pastured mares and stallions, on the 15th they will automatically breed? (for free?) is it worth waiting 2 weeks to breed?
    I am Fiddler, my pronouns are she/her
    and my game number is 276934

    image

  • Breeding on the 14th is not free, you are charged for 'vet fees'. Plus, the pasture won't breed if a stallion is not in it when the game rolls over from the 14th to the 15th.

    Many people start out with Foundation (1st generation) horses and work their way up to 'actual' pedigrees so they can consider the lines their own. Other people start out buying lined horses (horses with an 'actual pedigree'). Some people are sticklers for even pedigrees (Foundation to Foundation, 2nd generation to 2nd generation). Other people like mixing the generations. It is all up to how you want to play!

  • thank you!
    I sent 3 mares to stud. all produced colts. are some stallions better at producing fillies or is it the day of the month that is important?
    thank you again

  • In general the gender of the foals, and the percentage of colts to fillies is pretty random.

  • if you move a mare from one pasture to another, does the days in pasture count start all over again?
    I am Fiddler, my pronouns are she/her
    and my game number is 276934

  • Nope, it continues to accrue as long as you dont put her in a barn. If she just gets moved around in pastures, her count will continue.

  • well, I am studying genetics like I should have when I took genetics class :D I am still not really certain what the heck i want to breed for, and I am looking at some of my original stallions with a stink eye, but I'm going to let everyone do the deed and see what I get. It's a fascinating educating game. I've always loved genetics (except during that 7:30AM genetics class I flunked out of twice as a dewy eyed lass) and this is so much more convenient than actually breeding animals. Thanks to @Ammit for making this game!

  • Not new just third account on this server lol also known as Phoenix87 and PhoenixFireMaid but this account is strictly for my Appy love haha now time for some more coffee haha ttyl ;)
    Just a country woman who loves her animals! My ID# is 276438
  • Howdy Phoenix again! making Herd Helpers?
  • Whoops I meant to make that from this account but forgot to clear my catch and do it out it under my main bluegrass account lol so this is the third account Phoenix872 haha
  • No I have had this account for a few months now but kinda forgot about it with starting a new job lol so now I’m back to breeding my pretty apps lol my main account and the other one are prime members but this one is just basic for now so I can breed my apps separately from my other goals lol so if you have any appys for sale think of me lol
  • I sell a lot of them, but they go really fast!
  • Phoenix, I have one, she's the pasture pick, and she's yours if you want her!
  • Hello everyone, I haven't taken time to introduce myself yet but I'm really enjoying the game and love how laid back it is while still being genetically true in colors. I grew up on the back of a horse, have owned several and even had my own riding lesson program for a couple years. My family has a history within the AQHA for both breeding and showing/rodeoing.

    I am also known as AdvantageHillFarms within this server. I typically have several horses for sale or auction on either account. If you see one you are interested in please reach out and I may negotiate.

  • Hello everyone, been playing for a little while but never said hello
  • hello back! I think I'm more chatty on here than most, and I'm really enjoying the game. I am fascinated by how true to color (and genetics) these pixel horses are.
