Until registries are in place the Breeding Communities forum will be for players to work together towards creating or improving their favourite breeds.
Forum rules
Each breed may have only one topic. The first post in the topic is to be informative. It should help explain the breed, and breeding goals; advice on how to select mares and stallions; and links to ideal Stallions available for breeding.
Keeping a directory of breeders working on the same goal is also helpful.
All new threads must be approved.

Morgans

Post by ADownCenterline »

The Morgan Horse

America's first official breed, and a great one at that. The morgan is known for its stamina, willingness, and versatility, the original foundation stallion "Figure" became known far and wide as a horse that could out pull, out trot, and out gallop any other horse on the East coast. He was said to start his days working fields and end his days in match races, performing to his peak in each endeavor. His get have his conformation and tenacity, which they also passed down to present day morgans. They are popular mounts for just about any imaginable discipline due to their intelligence, flash, and ethic. I say this of my own morgan: Can't lunge him to get him to behave, he'll go until parts start falling off before he listens (and that's when he threw a shoe).

Origin: Vermont, USA, 1800
Extinct: No
Height: 14-15.3HH
Common Use: Literally everything
Common Colors: Literally everything


Creation
Thoroughbred x [ Arabian x Welsh Cob ]

Goal: Start the Morgan breed and keep them true to real life, with highest stats possible

Necessary breeds not yet created: Welsh Cob, Welsh Mountain, Hackney

They are also extremely fashionable (He hates me)

Hahaha! Lovely horse :)

In the long term I might also be interested, but right now I'm on the budyonny project.

Working on getting Hackneys, trying for Norfolks. Control the Hackney, control the world!

I managed to get a colt and filly for a Hackney cross on my first try. Now they gotta grow up and show me the goods :D

I have the crosses needed to create the Welsh mountain pony and then the Welsh Cob, it's just a matter of aging them up, if you guys still need them I'll put them up for stud.

Hey all! I am wanting to get on board with breeding Morgans as well. I have a really strong Welch Cob line, greens in breeders report with nothing below average. I also have an Arabian line, and all those animals have at least four golds, or two golds and a green in their lines. The only thing I don't have are the Thoroughbreds. Can anyone point me to some good animals? I want to add complete fresh blood into the Morgan lines, that is also flashy and high in breeders report. I love taking on new projects and have found my Clydesdales to be complete so I want to try something new. Any tips? :)
