Happy Friday everyone!  I was watching my K-9s play in the yard today and it got me to thinking about how really cool the K-9 sim is.  So I picked up a few “good boys” and we all went to play at the playground built special just for the K-9s!!  It was so much fun; I would definitely recommend that everyone take at least one afternoon a week to just let everything else wait while you take time to go to the park and play!  While playing at the dog park it dawned on me that all of the Amaretto sims are so very beautiful and great places to go visit and enjoy spending time with your breedables, while doing something fun!  So if you haven’t visited them in a while, or even if you have, go again!! Check out Boomtown while walking through the beautiful little town, go over to the main sim and ride your horses threw the gorgeous fields, head on over to the K-9 sim to play in the dog park. You’ve only just gotten started! Now you have to head on over to the Barnyard Bird sim and walk around before heading over to the Amaretto Ranch University campus and checking out that beyond fabulous Amaretto museum! Now you can finish out the tour de’ Amaretto by going to the Haven sim, kicking back in the field and relaxing while thinking about all the work you could be doing back at the ranch!!

A Null trait is an “Invisible trait” , A placeholder.

 

These placeholders are being implemented as a way to allow the breeder to have a maximum traited horse , but still look the way they want it to look.

 

Example 1

 

Dont like luster or brands ? Try these traits in your Horse

 

Coat Luster Null

Hair Luster Null

Branding Null

 

Example 2

 

This horse appears as a L/L white walker with gleam. But in reality its an 11 traiter as the Null is actually a breedable trait.

 

Example:

11 T White Walker

Version 3.2

Coat: White Walker

Eye: Pluto Galaxy

Mane: Long

Tail: Long

Coat Gleam High

Hair Gleam Null

Coat Luster Null

Hair Luster Null

Coat Opal Null

Branding Null

 

To give you a better idea also here is a full list of all Null Traits

Remember the Null traits are just like any other traits and pass the same way.

So today is Friday the 13th. We are a lil off here at Amaretto, (as if ya’ll didn’t know) and thought it would be cool to do something interesting for this rare day. So today only a special brand has hit the grid. This special Friday the 13th Branding will only drop randomly today but does have the ability to pass. Have a pic for ya’ll so see this cool new Brand. Happy breeding, and safe weekend to ya!

 

Mystique Rainbow Surprise!

Hey guys its Monday again I do hope that everyone who celebrates had a wonderful Easter with friends and family! I have a lot to share with you guys today and don’t worry you know I have pictures!!

So maybe you aren’t a member of the group or didn’t see it but the surprise everyone has been waiting for arrived. You know in a earlier post Jaymee revealed that if you breed two Mystiques of same color or two Runes eyes of the same color, this would give you a chance at a surprise?? Well…………….. SURPRISE!!!!

Here is a photo of the Mystique Rainbow Quartz Horse !!!! Isn’t it pretty!! I can hear the oooooh’s and ahhhhh’s from here!

But wait there’s more! What ?? More? OMG! Yup thats right we didn’t stop with a new coat we gave you a new eye to go with it here is a up close look at the Rainbow Mystic Quartz Eye!!


The new Mystique Rainbow Quartz Horse/K-9 and Rainbow Mystic Quartz Eye are separate. Meaning you have possibility to get a offspring with just the eye or just the coat! Amaretto didn’t stop there either! We love our k-9s and the people who breed them too so they also had a chance of a surprise!

Heres a look at Mystique Rainbow Quartz k-9.

 

This is a up close look at the Rainbow Mystic Quartz k-9 Eye.


Now these eyes and coats will have the ability to pass on to offspring! So some new and exciting things going on in the Amaretto world today! Don’t forget the Spring has Sprung Limited and Special Editions are only avaliable until tonight at 11:59 so if you haven’t got your fill or picked up your yet your running out of time!! Well until next time you guys Happy Breeding!

Spring Surprises

++We would like to think that everyone out there likes all the pretty colors and traits available on the horses and K-9s, but realistically we know that’s not the case. We also like to believe that the community loves it when we throw that special surprise twist into the Limited Editions and Special Editions. These beautiful Spring has Sprung LE’s and SE’s contain one of THE most exciting surprises to be released from the Ranch. Do you want the ability to breed a 13 trait horse but without color? How about the ability to breed an 8 trait K-9 without Radiance? Then you want these Spring has Sprung LE’s and SE’s as they hold the beginnings of something exciting!!!!

I hope you’re enjoying the nice weather, blossoming trees, birds singing, bright daffodils, and the gathering of family and friends. We at Amaretto have been working hard to create something special for this lovely season. Starting now and ending Monday April 9th 2012 at 11:59 pm, Amaretto is offering Spring Has Sprung Limited Edition horses and Special Edition K9s. There are 4 Limited Edition horses and 4 Special Edition K9s. The LE horse’s manes and tails are random and the Special Edition K9’s size is also random. To add even more excitement to it…. there is a possibility to get different color combinations such as a pink mane and tail on a green horse or a blue collar on a yellow K9… also you can possibly get different color combinations with the eyes for example a blue K9 with a pink eyes or a yellow horse with green eyes.  I do need to mention that the coats do not pass, nor do the colored manes and tails. The eyes however do pass as well as the collars on the K9.

Happy Easter, Happy Passover, and Happy Spring!!

New Birthstone Flower Eye

Beginning April 1, 2012 the Second of the new Birthstone Flower eyes were born onto the grid.

These beautiful eyes come with a representation of the birth flower for the month as well as the birthstone for the month.

The Birthstone Flower is one set of many exciting possible Non-Starter eyes that can come from breeding any coats.

You can have a chance at one of these exciting Non-Starter eyes as they are randomly dropped into bundles at the time the bundle drops. Your horse needs to be version 3.2 and higher for this eye to drop.

Amaretto Birthstone Flower eye dates: Daisy Diamond – April 1 – April 30

The Mystique coats and Runes eyes are gorgeous with their vibrant and bold colors. We’ve seen many people trying to mix in the chill and warmth for a variation of colors, or blending in the new hues to give them that extra pop of color. Well what if we did what Amaretto is famous for and threw an unexpected twist in there? Well, Guess what? That is exactly what we have done! Starting now…. If you breed two Mystiques of the same color or two Runes eyes of the same color be prepared to see something magical happen. This magical something will be worth breeding for! So get those Mystiques coats and Runes eyes together and start breeding…. Remember… they must be a Mystique coat of the same color or a Runes eye of the same color for a chance to get this mystical prize.

I rarely have the time to go to the web and search for blogs about Amaretto, and today was no different! However, I was sent a link to what may just be one of the best written blogs about Amaretto that Amaretto didn’t actually write!  I guess that is fitting since the blog is on the best of SL website!! Thank you so much to Rusalka Callisto for publishing such an amazing blog about Amaretto Breedables! If anyone out there knows of other well written blogs about Amaretto that I might want to take a look at please feel free to drop me a notecard in-world with the web address.

I know something you don’t know!

It’s me again and for some reason I just can not keep a secret. So want to know a really juicy secret? Well… here it goes…

Starting April 05, 2012 Amaretto is introducing a new Show Horse from April 5th 2012 to May 5th 2012 . We move from Jaymee’s favorite Bays to Jayson’s favorite Mustangs!!
• Starting April 5th 2012 at 12:01 am SLT any bundle dropped from the breeding of 2 Mustangs you have a chance at the bundle being an “Amaretto Mustang Showhorse”!
• That’s it! The only qualification is they both have to be Mustangs, they can be any color but Mother & Father MUST BOTH be Mustangs.
• We will announce what horse is next close to the end of the 30 days of Mustangs!
• Keep your eyes peeled as you won’t know what the “Amaretto Mustang Showhorse” looks like until it hits the grid !
• This “Amaretto Mustang Showhorse” will have a chance of passing its special eye!
• So Amaretto community… gather up your Mustangs and get them ready for an excitement filled month of breeding!

I promise I’ll try and keep all secrets to myself from now on

*crosses her fingers behind her back*

Until next time…..
