Deal! I'll add you to my chat.

Still looking for a pure white cob!

What I mean by a foal, I mean a horse that is only 1 YEAR OLD! Stop offering horses older than that! Also, make sure you offer horses with ALL their information. No bootstrapping and the horse must have all their papers or have gotten all their testing done prior! I want no horses that will become spayed or gelded once I get them if I must do the testing myself! I don't want anyone's scams or bullshit, I'm not getting played for a fool again!

I have 5,500 hb in my hands right now. Does anyone at all have anything for me, anything at all, the shorter the horse's final height the better! I'm looking to breed a line of designer cobs!

I feel like I need to say something, because I am offended and I hadn’t even offered anything yet! No one is purposely trying to scam you. If a horse does not have certain testing done, either the person does not have access to that testing, is low on funds, or there was a reason the testing was not done, I.e. bootstrapping. No need to get short or snappy, all you need to do is tell the person you are not interested and move on.

I never meant to sound rude at all, sounds like I need to stop my search, it's no use... :'(

That's the thing... nobody WANTS to help me! :'(

Well, for a pure white horse, a good HH to look for would be a cream with gray, or a homozygous cream. That will get you a very light base color. You can also breed for a higher WF (white factor), which will cause any kit genes, such as W2 (white 2) and W20 (white 20) to be amplified and cover more of the body of the horse.

I can look through some of the HH today and tomorrow and see if I can create a couple good starting horses for you.

Remember though, the horses won’t be able to breed until they are 3 for stallions and 4 for mares.

Alright. First off, you are being VERY rude. Incredibly so. You basically called us scammers. Just simply saying "evenly bred/passed BA, and only yearlings please" would have been enough.

Second, "white" isn't a gene in this game. You can get close to white, but not pure white. Grey, hom appy, and dilution genes can all help your goal. Most people who breed bone above 2.5 breed drafts, not cobs. So getting a "pure white" cob will be really difficult to begin with.

So here's an idea. Instead of insulting people and saying "No one wants to help me!", ask people on ways to breed these horses yourself. Look for Cremello HHs, dun HHs, and breed them to a light boy. Use the horse search for different dilutions. Look at the genetics of the horses posted here for a goal.

You can't delete discussions, only Ammit has that power. The best thing to do is stop bumping it and let it fall into oblivion.

well that's just great...







Hello darkness, my old friend...
I've come to talk with you again...

That reminds me...

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?!! White 1, White 2, White 3, White 8, White M? WHAT'S SO DIFFERENT BETWEEN THEM?!

THEY'RE ALL WHITE! :'-(

doing a quick search of the genes in the search horse section will give you a good idea of what the different whites are, i would get pictures for you but theres a lot and my wifi is being extremely slow at the minute :)

i dont think there is a more dominant one to the other, it all depends on what genes the parents pass down to their offspring, each white gene kit gene will show and if there are multiple it can be a very interesting baby to look at. if that helped in any way, again im not too experienced in the game however that is how i took it to be. if someone more expericed could correct me if im wrong id greatly appreciate it :)

They are different mutations of the kit gene, cause different patterns of white spotting, and have different risk for a lethal foal when combined with other kit mutations. The kit gene is responsible for a number of necessary functions in fetal development, so if both copies are too badly broken the foal dies before it is born. Here is the link to the thread on kit mutation load and the risk chart: http://hj2.huntandjump.com/forum/discussion/13757/new-kit-lethality-and-kit-mutation-load-explained#Item_13

White 1 and 2 are both available from herd helpers and in random creates. Both cause quite extensive white spotting and are fairly risky when combined with other kit mutations.
White 1 with minimal WF:

White 3, 8, and M are only available in the GMT lab for foundations (or by breeding to a horse from a GMT'ed foundation line). They are not cheap, 15 GMTs for W3, 20 for W8, and 40 for M. They cause less extreme white spotting than W1 and W2 and are therefore safer.
White 3 with medium WF (minimal gives mostly a ragged blaze and stockings):

White 3 with extensive WF:

White 8 with minimal WF:

There is this one if you'd like him, I can even add W1 or W2 to him if you'd prefer as I have a spare gmt token I could use. He is a rank special so is the same quality as a perfect foundation
