Re: Abyssinian
Bred my first Abyssinian filly!
Re: Abyssinian
I only just signed up today, but I'm interested in breeding Abyssian horses. I have a North African Barb mare called Clandestine Shadow, and she's super pretty and black and already fits the breed standard (fits Abyssian better than N.A Barb even...).
I was wondering if you offer any Abyssian stallions for stud, and if so what your stud fees are like?
Also I did a little training and such with her (first in game day and all), would you recommend spending more time training/competing before breeding?
*edit* I'm a nong. I just found the 'Stallions for Stud' page, and you have a stallion up there! Duh.
*edit 2* I don't know what the policy is on double posting, so I'm just editing again.
I've been researching real life abyssinians to get hints on area's I should focus my breeding. Here's some of the things I discovered:
- Primary traits are: Strength, Stamina, Agility (Strength is going to be hard to find cos neither arabs nor NAB's are strong.)
- Green eyes (ie Tiger Eyes) are common
- Most colours are available but the most common are: Black, dun, buckskin, palomino, perlino, cremello, roan, champagne, grullo, and brown EDIT 3: The website I got those colours from seems to have been wrong. everywhere else quotes the same colours you did.

Abyssinian Stud
I have purchased an attractive cremello Abyssinian stallion and put him up for stud. You can find him here:
http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/65464
I also successfully bred my first Abyssinian's:
Aralia's Hide and Seek: http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/76490 (Bay Filly)
Bramble's Buck: http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/77247 (Buckskin Colt)
Aralia's Bright Prospects http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/77313 (Classic Champagne Filly)
Bramble's Buck will go up for stud once he's old enough. He's also unrelated to the girls, so he'll be able to sire one foal by each of them. I'll probably sell him after that though, because the world doesn't really need more Abyssinian's with red strength stats. *sigh*
Also, in case your interested the horse that was the product of my Dark Aralia, and your Time Warp is here: http://www.horseworldonline.net/farm/pasture/5137
He's very pretty, and ok in competitions, but not really of much use to me, so I'm selling him.

Re: Abyssinian
Breed update!
- I sold First Snow, and his new owner hasn't put him up for stud, so my last post is well out of date now.
- I now own 13 Abyssinians, not counting ones I've sold or put up for sale.
Studs:
Lierre's Jasper
$500
Bay, no red stats
This stallion is essentially a new blood line being entirely unrelated to the Abby Loo line, and also Dark Aralia, my foundation mare.
Aralia's Winter Games
$250
Black, no red stats
This fellow is very handsome. He is cheaper than Lierre's Jasper though
Brood Mares:
Contact me if you have a stallion (of any breed!) you wish to cover these mares. I'll sell you the foal for a negotiable price. On the off chance the horse has twins (I hear thats possible), we take one each, and I charge you only 10% of the original price.
Aralia's Hide and Seek
$1000
Bay, no red stats.
Currently top ranked Abyssinian in game. (435 points)
She is ranked 15th out of mares of all breeds for Endurance.
My biggest challenge at the moment is finding quality stallions to cover my mares, so if you have an Abyssinian stallion with no red stats, please put him up for stud and list him here. Thanks!
