CHIMERAS

The Chimera according to Greek mythology, was a monstrous fire-breathing hybrid creature of Lycia in Asia Minor, composed of the parts of more than one animal. It is usually depicted as a lion, with the head of a goat protruding from its back, and a tail that might end with a snake’s head.

With animals, chimeras are the result of a genetic anomaly – one animal (like the dog below)– has cells derived from two different cell lines ( a black Labrador and a yellow Labrador). Brindle coloring in horses is extremely rare and in many cases is linked to spontaneous chimerism, resulting in an animal with two sets of DNA, , with the brindle pattern being an expression of two different sets of equine coat color genes in one horse.

In 2011, Amaretto brought us their own version of the Chimera Brindle horse. The Black/Platinum Chimera Brindle, Brown/Red Chimera Brindle, Brown/Tan Chimera Brindle, Platinum/Black Chimera Brindle, Red/Brown Chimera Brindle and Tan/Brown Chimera Brindle were one set of many exciting possible Non-Starter coats that could come from breeding starter horses. You had a chance at one of these exciting Non-Starter coated Chimera Brindles by breeding any horse with a starter horse or by breeding together two starter horses.
These coats CAN be passed on.

The Chimera Brindle Horse coats are now out to pasture, which means they will no longer drop from new starters, havens or LEs, but they can still be bred from existing lines.

Time to say Goodbye!

My breedable isnt Eating?!#%#$

Hey guys its Ava! I hope everyone is enjoying this Terrific Tuesday! I went on a house call today and thought it might be a good idea to share this information with all of you again!

So with all the craziness that has been in sl the past couple of days I wanted to talk to you about sick Horses, K-9s, Barnyard Birds, and Ponies!

Ive seen a few people saying that their horses aren’t eating, I know there are several breedable market sims that have had known issues. I wanted to go over a few simple checks to make sure that all your settings are correct. I know some of you have been breeding Amaretto for years and know everything there is to know, but sometimes its only a setting that will keep your breedable from eating,

So here is Ava’s check list for a breedable that is not eating:

1. Are scripts turned on?
2. Is the food set to All, Owner Only, or Group?
3. Is the breedable set to to correct food breedable or pet?
4 Is the food within range?
5. Is my breedable frozen or duplicated?
6. Is my food duplicated? (check for a uuid in the description field of the food)
7. Did i rerezz the breedable?
8. Is my breedable up to date?

If you go thru all these questions and still can not figure out why your breedable is not eating you should go ahead and file a ticket to have a csr come out. I cant tell you how many times ive went to a breeders and its a simple setting that is keeping their breedable from eating! It can happen even to the seasoned breeder!

If your breedable is sick currently it will take 3 days for them to eat thier way out of sickness, unless you are talking about ponies, ponies must have ponie noodle soup once they have this poine is sick above their head!

So happy breeding and eating everyone!
This is Ava over and out!

Whats Your Breedable Named?

Hey everyone! Hope everyone is having a great day! I wanted to take some time out today to talk to you guys about something that may effect the way you name bundles and horses.

Currently you have 36 characters to name your bundle or horse, and over 9 years that I have been with Amaretto let me just say you guys can get creative!

Im not gonna say any names but I have had people not file a ticket because they were to embarrassed as what they named the horse to.

There are a few changes that have happened concerning naming bundles and horses. I know alot of you guys like to include special characters in the your breeding names such as:

^Avalon~Crystal]–

Well sadly because of the way our code operates, doing this could start cause issues in the way your horse or bundle is working in world. Amaretto has taken steps to prevent you from using such characters when naming a horse or bundle. If you have a bundle with a special character in the name upon birthing the bundle the horses name will be the same but without the characters.

If you try to rename a horse with characters that are not allowed your horses name will then be changed to Rename without Invalid Character.

If your horses are named this all you have to do is click your horse and name and then rename.

As a good practice i would not include any special characters in the names of any of my Amaretto breedables.

Well as always guys Happy Breeding this is Ava over and out!
