Happy Breeding!!

Just a short connection today, but one close to my heart. Everyone knows there are many many Haven Horses available from Amaretto, in all the colors of the rainbow, but the very first one was the Memorable Haven Horse.
In November of 2010 Amaretto introduced the Horse Haven board, with products available that breeders could get with the points they received from havening horses and bundles, such as Pet Food, Healing Kits and Snacks. The following March of 2011, they gave us the Memorable Haven Horse, a ghostly winged angel of a horse complete with halo, in memory of lost loved ones. For 250,000 points you can get one for yourself, that comes in random gender with random starter eyes. The Memorable Haven Horses are NOT able to pass their coats, but when you breed a Horse Haven Horse (whether it is with another Horse Haven Horse or any other horse) you DO have an increased chance at receiving a random Charmed Horse.

On October 12, 2012 they announced the twist that was added to the Limited Edition Fall Fantasy Horses. If you bred a Limited Edition Fall Fantasy Horse with a Memorable Haven Horse you would have the ability to get a brand new trait, wings! The wing from the Memorable Haven Horse was called Blizzard. Many breeders have gotten these unusual Haven Horses as a tribute to their loved ones over the years

Hello everyone! Hope everyone is having a great Thursday! I wanted to talk with you guys about a few breeding terms that you may or may not be familiar with.

DOS- DIrect Off Spring – this means that mom or dad had the trait desired but the animal itself does not! (DOS animals can pass the desired trait even if not showing if mom or dad had the trait)

OSOS- Off Spring of Off Spring- this means mom and dad did not have desired traits but grandma or grandfather did. (OSOS animals can pass the desired trait even if not showing if grandma or grandfather had the trait)

Recovery – Waiting period between pregnancies
Descendants – A breeding cycle
Vintage – When a ponie has used all of its descendants
Pairing – Having two specific horses or K-9s breed with each other only
Companion – Having two specific Birds breed with each other only
Cycles – Each bird starts with 12 cycles which means that they can drop 12 nests.
Nesting – Waiting period between nests

Now lets talk about DOS and OS of LE, SE, CE, or DEs.
A DOS of any of the following LE, SE, CE, or DEs must be showing their hidden surprise to pass it into the DOS and OSOS.

Example: I breed 2 DE Sharks together I CAN NOT get the Great White eye from a DOS of the DE unless it is SHOWING the Great White Eye.

This isnt a new concept to Amaretto all LE, SE, CE, and DEs have always worked this way.

Concerning Posh Ponies, the non posh offspring of Amaretto Posh Ponies do NOT have an increased chance of producing Amaretto Posh Ponies.

Its always a good idea to educate yourself on the truth and learn the ins and outs of Amaretto that is why we have a whole 

Hey everyone hows it going today? I hope everyone is having a terrific taco Tuesday! Well if your not having tacos I hope at least it is Terrific!

Hello Amaretto Community! Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend! A big shot out to all the moms out there Happy Late Mothers Day!

Today I wanted to take a moment to share with you a feature for the K-9 that is often an over-looked feature that is so much fun! I am talking about the K-9 HUD! Take a look below where I tell you about this nifty little HUD. While the K-9 is attached to the HUD they receive a boost in Happiness. This is an incremental increase that will rise as long as the K-9 stays attached to the HUD.

To get a K-9 HUD you can click on any of your Amaretto K-9s and that will bring up the main menu. On the menu you will see Help.

When you click help that you will get another menu that has a button on it labeled hud.

By clicking the hud button you will receive a K-9 hud sent directly to the objects folder in your inventory.

Go to objects folder and find the hud, right click it and go to wear. It will attach to the upper left hand side of your screen. You can adjust this if you wish.

To connect your K-9 to the hud, click the K-9 and then click the hud button on the menu then click the connect button on your HUD.

Make sure your K-9s movement is set to physical before connecting to the hud.

Operation of the HUD

While the K-9 is attached to the HUD they receive a boost in Happiness. This is an incremental increase that will rise as long as the K-9 stays attached to the HUD. The buttons on the HUD are as follows:

• Connect – This button lets you chose what K-9 you want to interact with
• Disconnect – This button disconnects the current K-9 from the HUD
• Follow – the K-9 will follow your avatar
• Come – The K-9 will walk to your avatar and then sit near you
• Stay – This will cause the K-9 to sit and stay in its current location
• Get Ball – This button will send a ball to your objects folder for use with the Fetch button
• Fetch – This button needs to be activated before you can throw the ball and have your K-9 go get it for you.
• GPS  – This button can be used to set your K-9s settings

The HUD also displays valuable information such as:

• Which K-9 is connected to the HUD
• Which feature of the HUD is currently in use, Fetch, Come, Stay, and Follow.

Using the K-9 HUD:

• Wear the HUD – It will attach to your screen in the upper left corner
• Touch the K-9 you want to interact with and chose HUD from the Blue Menu
• Touch the Connect button on the HUD – It will confirm in local which K-9 is connected to the HUD
• Now you can choose to have your K-9 do one of the activities listed on the HUD

Come, Stay, Follow

To play Fetch with the K-9 using the HUD

• Click the Get Ball button – This will send a ball to your objects
• Wear the Ball – it will attach to your hand
• Click Ball to set range for the distance at which the ball will be thrown. You can chose from 20, 40, 60, or 100 meters.
• Click the Fetch button on your HUD
• You will see the mouse look button at the bottom of your screen click that to go into mouse look
• Aim where you want to throw the ball and left click your mouse to throw the ball
• Your K-9 will run and retrieve the ball and bring it back to you as you will see it back in your hand and you can throw it again and again while your K-9 retrieves it for you.

Once you are done interacting with your K-9 via the HUD or you want to play with a different K-9 click the Disconnect button. This will disconnect your K-9 from the HUD and reset Home position where the K-9 is located at the time it disconnects. Remember to move your K-9 back within range of it’s kibble and water and reset it’s home position.

So, give the K-9 HUD a try and see how much fun it can be to interact with your K-9!

I hope you all have an amazing week! Happy breeding! This is Ava over and out!

Until next time…

Stay Safe & Happy Breeding!!

The Marwari is a rare horse breed from the Marwar (or Jodhpur) region of India. Known for its inward-turning ear tips, it comes in all equine colours, although piebald and skewbald patterns tend to be the most popular with buyers and breeders. It is known for its hardiness, and is quite similar to the Kathiawari, another Indian breed from the Kathiawar region southwest of Marwar. Many breed members exhibit a natural ambling gait. The Marwari horses are descended from native Indian ponies crossed with Arabian horses, possibly with some Mongolian influence.

The Marwari is used for light draught and agricultural work, as well as riding and packing. In 1995, a breed society was formed for the Marwari horse in India. The exportation of Marwari horses was banned for decades, but between 2000 and 2006, a small number of exports were allowed. Since 2008, visas allowing temporary travel of Marwari horses outside India have been available in small numbers. Though they are rare they are becoming more popular outside of India due to their unique looks.

When the version 6.01 Horse update came out on Apr.27, 2019 these exciting new coats were hidden in new starters. The Marwari are one set of many exciting possible Non-Starter coats that can come from breeding “Starter Horses”.
You can have a chance at one of these exciting Non-Starter coated Marwari by breeding any horse with a starter horse or by breeding together two starter horses.
These coats CAN be passed on.
