Ooh I’ll have to look him up!! I wasn’t referencing him exactly but unless a horse is very low gen they are usually very inbred. Some famous Arab stallions I’ve seen are Roman, who I have 1 or 2 foals from, he’s got like 50+ kids XD and Atticus too I think. My wonky mares dad is named Apollo and he’s got 70,000+ GP I think. There’s more than one high GP Apollo in the game and I once panicked because looking at a pregnant mare of mines details I saw Sire: Apollo and this mare is pregnant to Apollo and I panicked until I realized it was two different Apollos XD

Here's his link: https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/4607671
If I remember correctly he had around 61K genetic potential, which for an Andalusian, was pretty high around that time and it still kind of is. I myself have just now managed to get my Andy stallions to that level. I've also have been working at getting higher evaluations out of my Andalusians, and am now seeing the results. All I can say is it's so rewarding seeing hard work put towards refining a smaller breed pay off! :)

Speaking of Atticus, I think I've even bred some of my horses to him. His lines are probably all over the place. :lol:
Yep there are a couple stallions here that just have children EVERYWHERE
My own Arab stallion for instance (I bought him not bred him) is the only child of his dam, and has 19, going on 20 kids!! Most of them were bred by me but I’ve sold several and they’ve had children of their own!! It’s amazing seeing how far his genes are going, I’ve just got to be careful in the future with my breeding now lol. Inbreeding is how a lot of people get high GP horses for the smaller breeds though, which is fine! I’ve started a breeding project with Pinksoul horses to expand and improve the Pavlavan breed, trust me I know the difficulties!!😅 and I greatly respect anyone working to achieve better horses, no matter the breed!

Makes me think of a very popular stallion in the Friesian realm, NK Fear Doctor. I think he's sired like forty-one horses! Some of them went on to be grand champions too. Oh yeah, and his stud fee is around 10K. That's a lot of of money! 🤑

Whenever I hear of the Pavlavan breed, I can't help but think of the dessert, Pavlova. :lol:
I looked up the breed, and I noticed there were like no horses on the sale or stud market. I had to go to the horse breeds wiki to find a visual representation. When they're that rare it must be really challenging!

Look up Roman! He’s an Arab with 50+ kids XD. And he’s very young on a freezer account I think. Yes we haven’t been able to get an actual Pavlavan to start a line so we are breeding for the source breeds and then we’ll breed those to get the actual Pavlavan. We are literally creating a completely new line out of scratch. It’s a challenge, we are on like, step two allllmost three and are close to creating one of the source breeds. We’ve got the evaluation books too to make sure we are creating the most accurate horses possible! It’s quite the work but I can’t imagine the reward of making the breed more popular, better GP, and available to all!!

Wow! That's a lot of progeny. Now that I see him, I think in the past I may have bred one of my horses to him too. :lol:

I've never tried expanding a breed from scratch! Okay, well maybe I did when I first started playing, I really wanted to start my own Dutch Warmblood line, but I figured out it was much harder than I anticipated lol. So instead, I decided to get more practice improving rare breeds that I didn't have to create on my own. I haven't entirely given up on the idea of someday creating a Dutch Warmblood, but for now, I think I'll focus on my present projects. Oh, and it's good that you know to use the evaluations books because when I first tried creating a DW I didn't know how important evals were until I'd gathered all of the horses and bred them together resulting in multiple grade horses! :x :lol:

That will be so fun to watch the Pavlavan's numbers grow! Like you also said, the reward someday will be so great. Especially going from under 100 horses on the whole game and no Pavlavans for sale or stud to having multiple of your own that you can sell, offer for stud, or enjoy for yourself! Have you thought about creating your own record of Pavlavan breeding record in the farm logs section of the forum?

Yes I have!! The farm logs section is a place that I greatly respect, everyone there is a genius in their own right and improving the blood of this game. The Pavlova project as PSH and I call it is still very small though, I’ll talk to my partner about it, maybe we’ll post there when we have some actual progress to show XD
As for the Dutch Warmbloods, I hope you try in the future! It takes a lot of time, but you’d be putting out an entirely new bloodline of horses!! It’s nice for people who want more options, especially for someone like me who’s trying to lower my COI (working on itt) and if a breed isn’t an ancient breed it tends to be very inbred with few low COI horses anyway. Overall you’d be enriching the breed. And definitely use those evaluation books and make sure are your breeding stock hit the marks! It’s important for breed accuracy and every single horse you’d produce would be the best of the best in that regard and therefore again, improve the breed overall with correct conformation. I for instance have a huge amount of Arabs that I love, but they are enormous, with a few over 20hh and not accurate to the breed at all! That’s because when someone was breeding they didn’t use the books XD so my Arabs are pretty much ginormous imposters with the words ‘Arabian’ stamped on their information but a poor rating from the breed evaluation book that’s pretty much telling me haha no, that creature is barely an Arabian, maybe its ancestors were

I love the farm logs section, it's so fun to see what everyone else is up to. I would definitely follow you and PSH's progress there!
Someday, I do think I will try. I always wanted to start a Dutch Warmblood herd because in real life they're actually my favorite breed. In terms of COI, it would be nice to have some horses that score low in that. I thought I heard somewhere on here that in future game updates, COI could have some impact on the horses' performance. Don't quote me on that though, because I'm not exactly sure where I heard that from.
Yeah, the mutant :lol: Arabians are kind of a problem. I have to admit, even I have quite a few giant Arabians too. Every few generations I have to throw in a random undersized mare I bought off of the market and breed her into my lines just to get the heights down. I'm actually due to do that right about now.
When I first started using the eval books I was kind of surprised that so many horses were not even up to the breed standard. Like you said, genetically they were that breed, but physically not so much.

He even topped Roman. :oops:
He's gorgeous though. :)
