Another quick update:

I have an Arabian picked out, as well as a WAB. A couple of Caspian studs (1, 2) have been tentatively picked out as well, but I want to get a Caspian mare before I truly start anything. I'd love to get another heavier Arabian mare as well, but we'll see. We're getting close to starting!

Also, for clarification purposes, if I pass all current number guesses for foals then I'll pause and offer you all a chance to guess again as well as take more guesses from the community. I'm not too sure that I'll end up having the best evaluation for my recipe horses so it could very well take me a long while to get this foal.

Update: I'm finishing up some training for a few people and then I'll start the breeding!

If any of you want to change anything about your answers, you'll have a few days to do so. I think I'll probably start around the 3rd if I'm not busy.

Here's my breeding stock so that you can get a better idea for what colors will pop up:

-Flaxen Red Dun Arabian x WAB mare
-Silver Dunskin Arabian x WAB mare
-Smoky Grulla Arabian x WAB mare

-Silver Bay Dun Arabian x WAB stud
-Seal Brown Caspian mare
-Bay Caspian mare

-Bay Caspian stud (Not mine, 4* eval)
-Black Caspian stud (Not mine, 4* eval)

The two Caspian mares will exclusively be bred with the Arabian x WAB stud. I had to get AC ones; there's pretty much only Offers Only Caspians in the market, which I find odd since they're one of the beginning breeds. They both have reds, but needs must. The three of them are all 4* evaluations, so they should have a pretty great chance at producing a Deli quickly.

My Flaxen Red Dun is only 2* for Deli, but she's just barely in that eval; she's close to being 5* honestly; just barely outside of the preferred range. I'll be pairing her with the Black Caspian; hopefully they even each other out.

My Silver Dunskin is also 2* for Deli. I think she's probably the least likely of the group to give a Deli foal simply because multiple aspects of her aren't well enough in line for the evaluation. Regardless, I'm giving her a chance. She'll be paired with both in an alternating pattern, starting with the Black Caspian and then swapping to the Bay, back to the Black and so on.

My Smoky Grulla is 3* for Deli, but is very nearly 4-5*. She's going to be paired with the Bay Caspian.

Sorry for the delay, I unexpectedly had no internet for a few days. Breeding has begun! I'll update the main post with news on foals as I go.

After 5 failed foals, a Deli has been born!

[E] Lovelit Mask is a Silver Bay Dun Colt born as #6.

Gabby Woodlark guessed the closest at #4. They also guessed the gender correctly; he's a colt.

No one guessed Silver Bay Dun as the color, and so no color bonus will be rewarded.

Oh, wow

I've been winning comps constantly, I feel bad :lol:

I've started training (Hooray), so I needn't want a free training, rather a free trained horse, if that's alright :D

Hold on, I'll buy a foal really quick and put it ufo.

Thanks, again :D

Sounds like you've been having some good luck! I'm happy for you. I don't currently have a specific trained horse ready as a competition prize (which is my bad, I thought it'd take longer for a Deli), so it might take a day or two to train one up if that's alright.
