[glow=red,2,300]Horses[/glow]
You can create two free horses on the Create a Horse Board.
Once you have created two, you cannot create anymore. (It used to be you could create 2 free ones and then just pay for the rest. However, the game quickly became over run but tons of horses. So we switched to this way).
You can buy, trade and sell horses to other players and also lease ("rent") horses to other people.
The forms are very basic on the create a horse form. Once an admin accepts your horse, they will fill out a another form and post the horse on The Data Base. Then you can see the horse's full stats (which are completey random).
If the horse is NOT on the database, it doesn't exist!
Sometimes, if your horse has been worked hard or something it may become injuried. If it does, an admin will shoot you a message with all the information on what happend to the horse, The same information will be added to the horses record of lameness and illness.
Same goes for an illness, The horse may become ill if you do not care for it right or even ate something bad in the pasture.
Horses "die" at no set age. They can die at anytime wether they are 2 or 22 years old. It can be from old age, poor care, ect.
[glow=red,2,300]Breeding of Horses[/glow]
!!No Graphic Breeding!!
A mare can become fertile at the age of 2 and a stallion becomes fertile at the age of 1. However, it is not recommended to breed the mare if she is under the age of 3. If you do, there may be a chance the mare/foal dies or become injuried.
Mares will no longer be fertile after 20 years, stallions remain fertile forever.
You can breed your mare at any time of the year. There is a better chance for the foal to survive if it is born in either spring or summer.
To acually breed the horses, fill out the form and and admin will post the results for the foal. Before the admin posts the foal on the database, you can pick a name for the foal.
Crossbreeding is allowed.
Stats of the offspring will be similar to the stats of the parents.
