SKULL??

Post by LoliruStudios »

so, my first horse is named Skull. he was a brilliant bay, but I've noticed he's becoming almost white. does this mean he could die soon? do horses die in this game? I love Skull and it would break my heart if he died. he has two foals, one named Rijah and one named Moonlight Parody. his wife is pregnant, and im worried he won't live to see his child. he is currently eight years old.

He is not bay, but grey. All greys start out coloured and get whiter and whiter as they age.
Horses do die in this game, but not before they are over 18 years old, though some live to the ripe old age of over 30. So at 8 years old Skull is in his prime and has at least 10 more years to live.
By the way, Rijah will go white too, she's inherited Skull's grey.

Fillies mature to mares at 4 years, this is the age they can be bred.
Colts mature to stallions at 3 years, this is the age they can breed mares.

I have another question. Rijah recently gave birth, but her foal, Hawn, surprised me. instead of being a bay, grey, or sorrel, like his parents, he takes a dazzling grey color. why is this? is it because of his background? he is related to every horse I have, and they are mostly greys and blacks, with Okapi, Connor's mother, thrown in there with her delicate brownish-grey.

Hawn will be another grey. Here on HWO, grey foals are born with the full colour they'd have if they weren't grey, and Hawn is a fine example of how a brown dun would look like.
Okapi is dark bay dun, that is close enough to Hawn's colour.

Visit the horse, on the left hand side as you scroll down, you'll see where they're being housed. Just below this is a drop down menu to move them. When you choose where to move them (grayed out choices that you can't select are full), the screen will turn pale for a short time then you'll get a notification of the move if it's successful or an error for the failure if there's no room.

Dying normally starts from 19 years and horses can die with a certain percentage at every start of a turn, you could have luck and he gets over 24 years ^^
