Help me decide what to add...
-
So I am having a somewhat bad day...I had an absolutely terrible quantum mechanics midterm last night (6:30-9:30 PM on Friday UGH) and today I am feeling wiped out and stressed about a trip I have to plan. All that has me feeling a little bit impulsive and welllll I decided to treat myself. I snagged this guy from the foundation rescue and have already GMTed him to be AtAt. I want to add either sb1 or sb2. I think I am slightly more partial to the look of sb2, but I already have 3 sb2 colts (all lined). This would be my first foundation sb2, but since I don't have any sb1 boys at all, I thought it might be nice to go that way. I am so undecided XD

What would you guys add? -
Maybe this will help.
Sb2, homozygous, looks like this:
I've had a lot of horses that have both Sb1 and Sb2 come out like this:
I don't care for the whiteout effect, and as a result, I don't like mixing them. Obviously, the amount of white expression makes a difference; an White: extensive homozygous Sb2 also mostly whites out but has a lot of flecks of color, still.
On the other hand, a minimal expression Sb1/2 looks kind of cool:
Of course, if this line is going to be completely separate from your Sb2 studs' lines, it doesn't matter.
You can go to the Search pattern and on the patterns tab unclick everything but the patterns you're considering, and see how different expressions and combinations look.
I wanna see how he looks once you decide :) -
Oooh that minimal expression Sb1Sb2 is very pretty!
I am thinking I want to go for heterozygous tough, that way I have a clear goal colorwise for the line.
Well, since it's more cost efficient to buy 10 GMTs instead of one at a time, and since I couldn't find a horse that was A+A+ SStySsty that was plain bay...well I did this also:

It just made sense, you know? (Addict logic right here.)
So, theoretically, I could GMT one to have sb1 and the other to have sb2...off to the search engine! -
I decide sb2 for the AtAt colt and sb1 for the A+A+ colt :)
