Ive seen the Elemental horses popping up all over the grid so congrats to those breeders who already have breed them!!

It was def a fun filled day and exciting to see you guys all come out and support Amaretto and just have a good time with the community.  Who knows maybe we should do this every couple of months or something what do you guys think?

Mean while on a side note k-9 beta is well under way we are finding bugs and working on getting them fixed everyday we get a bit closer to release!!

Congrats to our winners! Wtg  team working hard all day Friday to bring the community together, Happy breeding all until next Monday……..

How To Get Elemental Horses

Elemental Horses can only come by breeding a male and female with Element eyes. The Element eyes are Earth, Wind, Fire, Water, and Heart. They do not have to be the same Elements.

The Elemental horses that can be birthed will not have the particles like the ones given away at the Amaretto Social Gala, those Elemental horses were One of a Kind! The coats on the Elemental Horses that will be born will look just like the One of a Kind Gala horses just without the particles.

The Elemental Horses are not Limited Edition Horses. They are best compared to the Albinos, you just need to breed 2 Element eyes together for the Elemental Horses and you need to breed 2 Full Siblings together for the Albinos. I will include the text of the notecard that was sent out on the Elemental Horses yesterday below. Good luck to everyone in breeding for the new edition to the Amaretto Horses …the Elemental Horses !!

What are the Elemental Horses?
• Elemental Earth
• Elemental Fire
• Elemental Heart
• Elemental Water
• Elemental Wind

How do you get the Elemental Horses?
To have a chance at getting one of the Elemental Horses, you must breed two horses that have the Element Eyes. They do not have to be the same Element eye, they just need to both be Element Eyes. They DO NOT need to be siblings or anything else, they need ONLY have Element eyes.

Do the Elemental Horses pass their coats?
The Elementals are like the Albinos in that they do not pass their coats. However, breeding an Elemental horse to another Elemental Horse or even breeding an Elemental Horse to another horse with Element eyes increases your chances of getting another Elemental horse. The Elemental coat you receive will be chosen at random.

The 5 Elemental Horses given away as prizes at the Amaretto Social Gala are ONE OF A KIND!
The Elemental Horses that you will be able to breed for will NOT have the particle option that the ones given away have. This makes these 5 Elemental Horses the ONLY Horses of this kind on the grid! Congratulations to the Winners of these special horses.

Amaretto was busy in the past 2 weeks with the check presentations to the different charities that received donations from the in-world fundraiser that was so successful! Most of the team were able to go and present checks in person at the 4 different charities.  This was the best part for all of us as the Team each got to see the locations first hand and even meet some of the children that will benefit from the donations.  If you go to the Amaretto Social Engine website http://amarettobreedables.com/ and click the Blogs section a Team member that visited each location has blogged there about their visit and posted a picture. To see more pictures of the locations and presentations you can also click the Albums section and go to the Autism photos album and find more pictures there.  Josaphine also made sure to post all this exciting stuff on the official Amaretto Ranch Breedables Facebook page, be sure to click over and check that page out too.  http://www.facebook.com/pages/Amaretto-Ranch-Breedables/119962578050159

I personally hope that the entire community takes a look at these pictures and pauses for a moment to smile to themselves and think, “Wow, I made a difference and that feels really good!”

 

This week has been a great week as far as Amaretto is concerned.  Once again this community has proven how caring and giving it can be by supporting the Autism charity with record breaking sales!  It is always wonderful to see all the heartfelt comments from everyone regarding the different causes.  The designers really put together some gorgeous horses for this charity fundraiser and I am happy the community thought so too.  The Autism & Springtime horses will be on sale only until midnight tonight so be sure if you want to get “just one more set” before the sale ends to hurry over to any of the Amaretto store locations before time runs out!  We will release more detailed information about the amounts raised for Autism awareness and the charities that will be receiving donations as soon as everything is finalized.  Again, from every member of the Amaretto Family, Thank you for all your support.

Ask Ava!!

Hey everyone its Monday! And its time for the first installment of Ask Ava!! Our question today comes from Shanay Darwin. (hope she doesn’t mind me mentioning her LOL)
Shanay writes: “I have a question about Albinos breeding to their siblings.   We had an Albino that gave us a second generation Albino, but it gave us the same eye.   Is it possible to get a different eye from an Albino that is breeding with a sibling?  or will it only give an Albino with the same eye?”
Well Shanay, anytime an Albino is born from two siblings it can have any Albino eye. It just happens to be chance that you got the same eye two times. Anytime you breed two horses from the same parents you have the chance to have an Albino with any eye.  Guess you were just lucky!

Well sorry this post is so short the weather is not cooperating with me tonight and I wanted to be sure and  get this up. But keep your questions coming.  I will sort through them and pick one each Monday to answer! Happy breeding everyone as always I appreciate all the wonderful passionate breeders we have in Amaretto! Peace out!

About Albinos

Some people are asking how you get Albinos. Well in todays post I will go over a few things about Albinos

How do you get an Albino?

Albinos come from full siblings. This means it has to be the same mother and same father not half father or half mother. Siblings do not have to have the same traits as some say to give you an Albino, that is not true at all.

Although I cannot give you what the odds are of getting an Albino from a sibling pair I can tell you that not every bundle from siblings will be an Albino.

Can Albinos pass their coat?

No they cannot pass their coat but they can produce another Albino if you put them with their sibling. Remember, there is no other way to get an Albino except from siblings.

Can Albinos pass their eyes?

YES, the eyes on the Albinos can pass.

Is there a list of Albino eyes?

Here is the list of the eyes that the Albinos do have:

Hazel Blue
Hazel Pink
Hazel Green
Multi Black White
Multi Blue Pink
Multi Brown Blue
Multi Green Blue
Multi Green Brown
Multi Pink Violet
Multi Silver Violet
Rainbow

I do want to throw in one more thing that is not about Albinos. Its about an issue I have seen come into play in the past few days that is an SL issue and if it happens to you this might help you in able to fix this issue.

Some have been having horses/bundles that they cannot get menu’s from, can’t pick up, delete them or return them. We are not sure what is causing this issue but there are a few fixes that might work before filing a ticket.

Try to sell the horse to a friend or alt. Someone you can trust. Most of the time after transfer it will be able to be moved.

Try restarting the sim sometimes this works as well

If these steps do not work for you then file a ticket and one of theCSR’s will come out and help you with this matter. This is not happening alot but I wanted to keep you all up to date with new issues that LL makes.

Amaretto Breedables and Southern Tier HealthLink are joining forces again to help relief efforts for the earthquake and tsunami victims in Japan. We will be donating 100% of the proceeds to AmeriCares.

“AmeriCares is a nonprofit disaster relief and humanitarian aid organization which provides immediate response to emergency medical needs – and supports long-term humanitarian assistance programs – for all people around the world, irrespective of race, creed or political persuasion”  http://www.americares.org/aboutus/
**Amaretto Limited Edition – Sakura Blossom Horse**
The Sakura Tree: Strong, elegant, enduring, and beautiful. It overcomes the seasons, triumphing with its branches held proudly, pulling through and blossoming once more.
We at Amaretto have decided that it was only fitting to combine the aspects of the Sakura Tree with the merits of the horse, powerful, strong willed, and graceful, in an effort to raise funds towards the relief effort for the recent events in Japan. Together we can help the victims of this terrible disaster blossom again.
A few facts about the horse: The beautiful eyes, Life Green Sakura and Passion Pink Sakura WILL be able to pass on to offspring, but just like other limited edition horses, the coat WILL NOT pass. These special horse will be available from today,  Friday March 18th until next Friday March 25th and will be $1111L (for March 11, 2011 when this tragedy struck Japan).
**Added bonus**Our designers made a gift for all who donate,  a special Amaretto Breeder Food & Water that comes along with the horse and a certificate to display.
We all here at Amaretto would like to thank all those in advance for supporting this relief effort, together we all can make a difference!!

 

These are available at Amaretto Store Locations.

 

***Important Information I forgot to add***

  • Ancient Biscuit is an Amaretto Business alt used just for charity fund raisers such as this one.
  • These bundles are like the new starter bundles in that they have the chance at having the new traits that were released in the update.
  • The color of the horses you receive are random as is the gender.

Alot of you are asking about the eye that was seen yesterday for the first time..

Pisces Aquamarine (Zodiac Eye)

How do we get this eye? Is it in the new starters?

Answer: This eye is like the harvest horse in the sense  they will be random. When a bundle drops it is assigned its traits based on the mom and dads sub and dom traits. The Zodiac Eyes will be randomly assigned when the bundle drops. Since its not in the main horse the data base will randomly give bundles this eye but yet at the same time it does not effect the mom and dads dom and sub traits.

Why did we buy new starters?

Answer: The new starters will have the chance at carrying the other new traits that are coming out. Since this eye will not replace the traits that your horses have now we are able to do this without effecting the eyes that your horses have as sub eyes now.

Will they come out every month?

Answer: Yes!!! Each time the Zodiac changes so will the eyes. This means if the date for one Zodiac changes on the 21st then the new eye will be able to come out then also. (Spoiler alert) There are 2 different eyes per Zodiac sign. 🙂 So for example the Zodiac sign Pisces runs from February 19 – March 20th during these times you will be able to get the Pisces eyes. Beginning March 21st look forward to the Aries eyes! See Zodiac dates at the bottom of this post.

Do the eyes pass?

Answer: Yes!! Like most other eyes they will pass these eyes.

 

The mom and dad do have to be version 2.0 or above in order to get the Zodiac eyes.

So with all this being said I will make this statement:
All Zodiac eyes can pass and they will be out each time the Zodiac changes. The traits in the mom and dad of these horses have not been altered in anyway whatsoever. They are Randomly Generated by the server aka Database.

Amaretto Zodiac eye dates:
Pisces February 19 -March 20

Aries March 21 -April 19

Taurus April 20 -May 20

Gemini May 21 -June 20

Cancer June 21 -July 22

Leo July 23 -August 22

Virgo August 23 -September 22

Libra September 23 -October 22

Scorpio October 23 -November 21

Sagittarius November 22 -December 21

Capricorn December 22 -January 19

Aquarius January 20 -February 18

Wow its another manic Monday……..here we are embarking on a new week what bundles are in store for you? Or even me LOL. So one week of the customer connection and what do you guys think? Is it a keeper? Well last week I asked for ncs on what you guys wanted to see posts on and I only got one. I cant remember who sent it but they wanted me to talk about charmed horses.
There are currently 6 different types of charmed horses:

  • Pegacorn
  • Pegasus
  • Unicorn
  • Robo Unicorn
  • Demon Horse
  • Nightmare Clydesdale

 

How charming are they exactly? Well the first myth is that charmed horses can pass their coats this is not true, they will not pass their coats, their eyes, or any other specific traits for any one particular charmed.

Charmed horses do have a slight increased chance of giving birth to another charmed however, this increase is not in the normal coat charmed offspring babies,  but only the actual charmed babies from a charmed horse have a greater chance to get another charmed.
If you have a charmed horse that is missing a horn or a wing you need to file a ticket for this horse it is not any more special than other charmed that has these things, but it was a glitch in the older bundles but will be fixed in the next update.

So what new charms are in store for Amaretto? Well i cant exactly tell you that 😛 But if there is another topic you would like to see on the customer connection please send a nc in world to Avalon Crystal, and one of the csrs will post about it!

I hope that everyone has a great week!  I wish you all long, longs with many traits!! Happy Breeding everyone!!

If a charmed horse is bred with another horse of any type, or with another charmed, will yield a greater chance of having a charmed, however, when their descedents breed (if they aren’t charmed) will not garner the increased chance.

 

  • Charmed + Charmed= higher chance
  • Charmed + Non Charmed = higher chance
  • Offspring of Charmed (non charmed) + Offspring of Charmed (non charmed) = no higher chance than a normal non charmed horse

 

Just confirmed straight from our scripter [20:31]  Lexxure Lock: A non-charmed horse breeding with another non-charmed horse WILL NOT have a greater chance to have a new charmed, REGARDLESS OF ITS PARENTS. If a charmed horse is bred with another horse of any type, or with another charmed, will yield a greater chance of having a charmed, however, when their descedents breed (if they aren’t charmed) will not garner the increased chance.
