Hello to the best Breedable community ever! I hope your Saturday is going great! Speaking of Hope…  On June 22nd at 3pm Amaretto will be hosting ‘The 100 Years of Hope’ One of a Kind Auction! This is going to be a wonderful auction with all proceeds going to Relay for Life! All final bids will be paid directly to the RFL kiosk. This auction is going to be broadcast over a live stream so that everyone interested in participating will be able to, even when the sim fills up! If you are interested in registering to bid at this amazing auction, please send a notecard to Avalon Crystal or Jaymee Caproni in world. Once we have received your notecard you will be added to the ~Amaretto Auction for A Cure~ group owned by Avalon Crystal. I need to stress; you must be in this group to be registered and to bid! Everyone registered will be assigned a proxy bidder. Proxy bidders will be announced closer to the auction and will be sent in notices. This is so everyone can participate, even if you are unable to attend.

The auction will be held at the myslhorses Sale Yard auction area. This is where all the wonderful Horses, K9s, and Barnyard Birds that have been generously donated by the community will be auctioned off. These are not you’re your average Horses, K9s, and Barnyard Birds; these are the best of the best, the cream of the crop, the crème de la crème, the…. Well you get the point! Lol! I would like to add, if anyone is interested in donating to this great auction, please contact Avalon Crystal!

But wait…. guess what else is currently being displayed at the auction area… The four AMAZING One of a Kind Apocalypse horses Amaretto will be auctioning off! Below is a list of these four truly fascinating horses!

Amaretto OOAK Apocalypse Horse- Conquest

Amaretto OOAK Apocalypse Horse- War

Another really cool thing that Amaretto will be auctioning off at this auction that we have never done before is a custom K9 collar! This collar will pass on and you will be the only one with it in second life if you don’t share!!!

There are a few rules for the collar and they are the following:

*No ads on the collar

*Must be approved by Amaretto before production

*Amaretto will put this collar on a male starter/nonstarter coat of your choice, age 7 for the winner.

(No SE’s or other special coats)

So, as you can see this is going to an auction you do not want to miss! Head on down now to check out the four OOAK horses on display! All of the awesome donated items will be on display for you to see next week!

Happy Bidding Yall!!!

 

Home Home set your range!

Today I wanted to talk to everyone about setting the range on your horses.  I cannot stress how important your horses range is when it comes to pretty much everything.  The range is set in meters and is the radius of a circle with the home point as the center. (The radius of a circle is measured from the center to its edge). When a horse is first birthed its default range is set to 5 meters.  This means that you must also have food within 5 meters of the horses in order for them to eat.  When they are old enough to breed the horse you want them to breed with must also be within 5 meters of them.  So you see the range you set is important for a few reasons.  If you have a lot of horses or even just a few I suggest using the Global Pony System or the GPS on your sim.  With this wonderful device you can set the stats on all of your horses at once, range, animation, movement, and sounds, all of it! It’s really handy and saves tons of time.  Plus I find it’s nice to know that all of my horses are set to the same range so I don’t have to keep checking them. Just remember if you have special projects going and need ranges set to a different amount on certain horses you will have to manually do this as the GPS will change the range on the whole sim.

 

 

One of the main topics of the tickets we receive is about horses not eating. If you are having issues with your horse not eating please try the following tricks before filing a ticket.

  • 1. Re-rez fixes 99% of the issues.
  • 2. If the land is set to a group, are the horses and food set to that group?
  • 3. If the land isn’t set to a group, are the horse and food set to the same group as each other?
  • 4. Check to see if the horse is set to the type of food out (more stats)
  • 5. Re-set home position.
  • 6. Sometimes giving them a Horsey Snack will help them start to eat so you may also want to try this. Remember your horses only eat once every 43 minutes so you may not notice a change immediately, be patient it takes 3 days for a horse to reach 100% hunger.

 

 

Until next time, Happy Breeding everyone!

Calling all Breeders!!!!

Hey guys its Tuesday! I am not sure about you guys but by Tuesday im just getting back into the swing of things.

So today I am sending a call out to all my breeding friends I need your help! I will be hosting a 100 Years of Hope Auction to kick off fund raising for Relay for Life this year.

I’m sending out a call to everyone in the community, I do hope you will attend the Auctions for Relay for Life have been very exciting in the past, we have raised over 2 million lindens in one auction.

Ive been watching you guys in the group, and have seen some say my horses aren’t good enough or i don’t have the lindens to bid. I want everyone who wants to participate in Relay for Life to have a chance to do so.

So look over your bundles, horses, kennels that you have and consider donating to the auction. Without donations and bidders this auction will not be a success.

More than one million people in the United States get cancer each year. Whether you have cancer or are close to someone who does, this is a very serious illness claiming lives around the globe. This is a great opportunity to help others and make a difference!

If you are interested in donating or bidding please contact Avalon Crystal. I know everyone in our community is compassionate so lets come together and raise some funds for a wonderful cause.

Happy Friday Everyone! We’re off to a great start in what is sure to be an exciting month for Amaretto and the Amaretto Community!

 
I wanted to remind everyone about the Dakota Show taking place tomorrow, Saturday June 8, 2013 at 11am SLT. After having last month off my show is back and I have lined up 3 amazing guests to talk too. Kini Barbosa and Leandra Kohnke the co-founders of the insanely popular Breedable Bartering group are going to sit down and talk with me as well as our very own Assistant Manager here at Amaretto Breedables, Ms. Jaymee Caproni. Anyone that knows Jaymee knows this is going to be one interview not to be missed!

 
While making plans to attend the Dakota Show tomorrow don’t forget that the AMOC group is having a Market Owner Stand up today where a market owner will come in and talk to everyone about a project they are working on. Today that happens to be Jay Alexis who will be talking to us all about the Nashorse project that she is working on. Hope to see many of you there listening and learning about something that should be a ton of fun!

 
Until next time, Happy Breeding!

Hey yall and Happy Thursday! Today we had blast riding the bull and scootin our boots to the awesome tunes! This was our first bull riding event and we want to send a huge thank you to all those who came out and made it an extra special event. The bull was not very gentle to those who challenged him! I have included some pictures of the bull riding and dancing that went on!

I would also like to take this opportunity to mention something very important to us. The OOAK auction for Relay For Life. In the past One of a Kind auctions we have hosted we have asked for help and you guys showed up and supported the cause in a big way! By donating, bidding, and promoting the event! Well we would really like to make this auction even better than the last 2 so we have our work cut out for ourselves!

If you have a horse that you think would benefit the auction please contact Avalon Crystal! Miss Avalon is asking that all horses donated be at least 18ts or a special breed such as charmed, showhorse, albino, galaxy etc! Also she will be accepting donations for high traited and special K-9s as well as Barnyard Birds. If you have any questions please contact Avalon Crystal! Let’s give Avalon and RFL some help! This is for a wonderful cause!

Now… on to the pictures from today’s Hoe Down!

The event started out with some boot scootin Dancin…
