How can one breed a PUREBREED Arabian that is so tall and looks nothing like the normal arabian? It seems so strange.

Re: Genetics
It's done the same way as breeding the short ones! ... If you take 2 normal sized arabs and breed them, the foal can inherit its height based on a range from its dam and sire. If you breed a slightly tall arab, you have a chance to get a slightly taller one. If you do that over and over, eventually, you can get an extremely tall arab.Shocoloco wrote:How can one breed a PUREBREED Arabian that is so tall and looks nothing like the normal arabian?

Hmm... I do arabs, most of them 4* because they are too tall, but sometimes I also get extremely tiny ones, it's weird..

Well, that is true to some extent. Horses from the AC do have a limited range of genetics based on their breed. Like you can not breed two belgian horses from the AC and end up with a shetland pony sized horse even if you tried to do so over multiple generations without using any other breed in the process.KayaineII wrote:It's done the same way as breeding the short ones! ...

The top arabians in the game all have some crossbreds far back in their pedigree if you look closely. This means that some other genetic traits other than green/gold stats have followed the line of horses making some arabians look different than the AC arabians.

So the 17 inch Arabian colt I just purchased - isn't a game fluke, then???texí wrote:Hmm... I do arabs, most of them 4* because they are too tall, but sometimes I also get extremely tiny ones, it's weird..
Neither of his parents were tiny like he is.
I thought I was seeing things!

Re: Genetics
It happens, I don't know how or why but it does, I keep the ones that are not too small to produce 5* arabs.
Alpha ignis, signum astralis, flamma omega, multiversalis....

My foal is Half Przewalski but it looks to me like its 100% Przewalski although its got Clydesdale and thoroughbred in it.
