June is Jumping!

Hey guys! Happy Friday everyone also known as National Speak in Complete Sentence Day!
No I didnt make that up, google it. All jokes aside I am soooo very glad that it is starting to warm up for most and summer is here! So lets take a look at what Amaretto has planned for the month of June!!

We will kick off the month with a Club Amaretto at 1 PM on June 4th!
Next we will have some laughs playing Cards Against Humanity 1 PM on June 12.
Then we will spend an hour relaxing with our poles in the water for Fishing on June 20th!
We will end with a bang at the community meeting on June 27th!

Also there is a brand new ARU calendar I have posted below. Remember the graduation August 7th @ 5PM! So if you are missing 1 or 2 classes at the end of this month please let me know, we want everyone who wants to graduate to be able to!

Well this is Ava over and out happy breeding everyone! Watch out for those Craved animals!

Linden Lab Changes!

Hey guys! Its your favorite Ava! Or maybe your least favorite Ava! So sl sure has been busy and the blogs, forums, and facebook sure are buzzing!
So I thought I would take some time and let all of the Amaretto Community know changes that are coming to second life starting in June! I am sure that these
changes will effect everyone in one way or another.

So the good news is………………. land will be cheaper! Yay! Lets hope those landlords pass down the savings right!

The not so good news is, that starting June, 24, 2019 that Linden Labs will be making changes to their Premium Membership, these changes might effect your group space or how many offlines you may get before you cap. But those new linden house boats should help soften the blow!

So LInden Labs seems to be working on improving the grid and making changes all the way around! The point of this connection is so that you guys can stay informed. Before Amaretto i didnt check secondlifes blogs or forums, things would change and I would wonder what happened. LOL.

We are all residents in this community and I think it is very important we educated ourselves with what is going on, on the grid.

Here is a link to Linden Labs announcements and changes so take the time to keep an eye out, so you will know whats going on!

https://community.secondlife.com/blogs/entry/2557-land-price-reductions-new-premium-perks-and-pricing-changes/

Lets be proactive and keep up with the daily buzz and changes to our wonderful virtual play ground! Don’t listen to everyone else educate yourself and make your own opinion. This is Ava over and out! Happy Breeding everyone!

Crystal Wings!

Hey everyone! I am continuing with my series of connections to show off all the goodies that we are getting from 6.01 starters!

Today I wanted to talk about and shine a light on the Crystal Wings!

On April 27, 2019n Amaretto released the 6.01 update! With this update came lots of new traits!

The Crystal Wings are one set of many exciting possible Non-Starter traits that can come from breeding “Starter Coats”.

You can have a chance at one of these exciting Non-Starter Crystal Wings by breeding any horse with a starter horse or by breeding together two starter horses.

Lets check these wings out!
Blue Quartz


White Goshenite


Red Almandine


Black Tourmaline

You can check them out on the wiki anytime:

These wings DO have the ability to pass! I can think of a few really cool combos that these wings would look amazing on! I know that these wings are def more fantasy like but I love the fact that we have so many options for our breeding combos!

Well keep an eye out for these wings! this is Ava over and out!

Memorial Day

Hello guys! I hope that everyone is having a wonderful Monday! Today is Memorial Day in America, so I thought it was only appropriate that we recognize that.

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for remembering and honoring the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. The holiday is observed on the last Monday of May. Memorial Day was observed on May 30 from 1868 to 1970.

Many people visit cemeteries and memorials on Memorial Day, particularly to honor those who died in military service. Many volunteers place an American flag on each grave in national cemeteries.

Memorial Day is considered the unofficial start of the summer vacation season in the United States, while Labor Day marks its end on the first Monday of September.

Two other days celebrate those who serve or have served in the U.S. military: Veterans Day, which celebrates the service of all U.S. military veterans; and Armed Forces Day, a minor U.S. remembrance celebrated earlier in May, specifically honoring those currently serving in the U.S. military.

Remember those who served before.
Remember those who are no more.
Remember those who serve today.
Remember them as we eat and play.
Remember our protectors-
who are not home today.
Remember them all on Memorial Day.

Happy breeding everyone! This is Ava over and out!

Confection Coats

Hey All 

Today I wanted to take a moment to look at the sweet Confection horses.

You can get a randomly dropped Confection Horse by breeding together any two horses that have the Confection Eyes.

Wiki Link HERE

  • Hot Fudge Sundae Confection
    • Eye: Hot Fudge Sundae
  • Devil’s Food Cake Confection
    • Eye: Devil’s Food Cake
  • Cotton Candy Confection
    • Eye: Pink Cotton Candy
  • Lemon Meringue Pie Confection
    • Eye: Lemon Meringue Pie
  • Red Velvet Cake Confection
    • Eye: Red Velvet Cake
  • Strawberry Shortcake Confection
    • Eye: Strawberry Shortcake

These Confection Horses cannot pass their Coats, but breeding a Confection Horse with another Confection Horse or with any other horse with Confection Eyes you have a slightly increased chance for another Confection Horse.

The Confection coat you receive will be chosen at random.

The Confection Eye that is on a Confection Horse does have the ability to pass on.

Wiki Link HERE

So get you some Confection eyes horses breeding together and try for a Confection Horse!! Good Luck Everyone!!

Sanctuary Birds will give a gradual boost to the Vivacity of birds within 10 meters over a period of time. The coats on these birds do NOT pass.

You can have a chance at this exciting Non-Starter eye by breeding any Wind it up Bird. This eye was hidden in the Wind it Up Barnyard Bird and CAN be passed on.

How do you get one of these awesome birds? These birds can be purchased from any Amaretto Breedable Barnyard Bird stores by using your Henny Pennies! https://amarettobreedables.com/pages/locations

We know everyone has been anxiously waiting for the announcement of the all new craved coats and how they work. So, for our very first craved coat, from June 1, 2019 until June 30, 2019, you breed any two Overos, Splashed Great Danes, Faverolles, or Painted Ponies and have a chance at getting a Craved Rainbow Striped Overo, Splashed Great Dane, Faverolles, or Painted Ponie. This all new coat does have the ability to pass and get any of the traits available to that animal.

So horses, all you need to do is breed two Overos together. Any Overo including the Showhorse. K-9s, you breed any two Splashed Great Danes together. Birds, breed any two Faverolles together. And Ponies, you breed any two Painted Ponies together. Pretty simple right? And each month will be a entirely new coat and I must say they look awesome!

Have fun birthing and breeding!

6.01 Cleared Up!

Hello everyone its another Terrific Tuesday here at Amaretto, I wanted to adress a few things that I have been hearing lately.

The first thing I want to talk about is
Wing Style: Pegasus
Wing Color: Blizzard
Horn Style: Unicorn
Horn Color: Shadow
Saddle Style: Racing
Saddle Color: White

With the 6.01 the way traits were listed on horses and bundles were changed a little.
When we flipped the switch on 6.01 everyones bundles text appeared differently, that does not mean that your bundle became more traits.

So the low down on this is wing, horn, or saddle is still only 1 trait, we have separated the style and color so that we have the ability to add different styles that opens the possibility for all kinds of wings, horns, and saddles!

Now lets talk about the new headpiece trait! If you got and breed some of the Mothers Day Edition horses then you had a chance of getting a brand new trait Head Piece: Bow Fuchsia! How exciting its now the 26th trait! That means that you can have a Head Piece and horn!

So here is the maximum traits for a horse:
1 Coat (Non-Starter)
2 Eye (Non-Starter)
3 Mane (Non-Starter)
4 Tail (Non-Starter)
5 Coat Gleam
6 Coat Luster
7 Coat Gloom/Chill/Warmth/Blush/Haze/Hue
8 Coat Opal
9 Hair Gleam
10 Hair Luster
11 Hair Gloom/Chill/Warmth/Blush/Haze/Hue
12 Hair Opal
13 Branding
14 Hoof Paint/socks/leg null
15 Ear Size (scanty,lanky)
16 Ear Style (droop,droop left,droop right)
17 Class Stamina
18 Class Speed
19 Wild Hair
20 Wings/wing null
21 Bridle
22 Wing Opal
23 Horn
24 Saddle
25 Ear Tips
26 Head Piece

How many awesome combos and different looks you can put on any horse!

The other thing I want to mention is Starter DOS bundles!
Here is what it says on the wiki:
When breeding new starters together, it is important to remember that the hidden coats/traits may or may not drop in the first bundle or even the last bundle. You just never know!

Also starter can pass new traits as a hidden so the starter DOS can have the new awesome traits that became available in 6.01, so starters dont have to show it to throw it which is different than LEs.

Well I hope this has helped clear some things for everyone! I hope you all have a great day and happy breeding everyone! This is Ava over and out!

Lovely Lusitano!

Hello everyone! Hope everyone is enjoying a great start to your week! I wanted to show off some new stuff from the 6.01 horse update! Lets talk about our brand new starter set of horses the Lusitano!

There are 6 different colors of the lovely Lusitano!
Aurelian Lusitano
Alabaster Lusitano
Dark Bay Lusitano
Chiffon Lusitano
Russet Lusitano
Chestnut Lusitano

Amaretto Breedables all begin with the “Starter Coats” that are sold in starter, breeder and rancher packs at the Amaretto Horse stores. The Lusitanos are considered “Starter Coats”.

Lusitano were released in the 6.01 update.

They each come with possible hidden coats and traits. The hidden coats/traits may or may not be Non-Starter. When breeding new starters together, it is important to remember that the hidden coats/traits may or may not drop in the first bundle or even the last bundle. You just never know! Remember, once a starter always a starter.

The Lusitano DOES have the ability to pass!

You can always check them out on the Wiki here:

I really love the shading on these horses and wanted to tell you guys to watch out for these in your breedings! This is Ava over and out Happy Breeding!
