Shire Breeding

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.

Shire Breeding

Post by CrochetShiloh »

Hello! I am posting this because I need help with my shire breeding.


Since I started playing this game I have wanted to breed shires. I looked in the breeds wiki and to breed a shire is
Forest Horse x [ Belgian x Friesian ]. So that is what I did, I got a 100% Belgian mare from adoption, and got a colt from her.
Once he was old enough I breed him with a 100% forest horse mare from adoption, I thought the foal would be a shire. But it was a half-forest horse foal. :?
So I thought maybe the dam is supposed to be the Belgian-Friesian mix, so I bred that mare again and once I got a filly, and once she was at breeding age I bred her with a forest horse stallion.
She just foaled, but it was another half-forest horse foal. :cry:
I am so confused, I am not sure why I am not getting a shire, I am doing what the wiki says. Am I breeding wrong? is their a certain genetic I am missing?
I only started playing this game a few months ago, so any help with his will be much apricated.
