Wish we knew the algorithm for breeding so I could make sure I'm making the best pairings to combine the traits. When you get up around 50% it gets really difficult to transfer all of the traits onto a foal. Here are a few tips I've come up with through the process that others might find helpful: Get yourself an equus (or other species, lower breeding cooldowns are better) for crossbreeding that is the correct body size and eye color. When I get a new trait that needs to be mixed in, I first funnel it through the equus (in future weeks if we try to create an equus, then a horse will be my crossbreeder!) to get the correct size and eye color with the desired trait on a horse. When crossbreeding, the foal will get traits (including mane and tail) from whichever parent is the same breed it comes out as (they can fail to inherit some traits like patterns, etc.), can get size from either, eye color from either; mane and tail will take after the parent breed. Having an equus to crossbreed with (because this week's challenge is a horse; in future weeks if we get any other equine I will use a horse for my crossbreed because they have lowest gestation time) also allows me to "clean" my breeding lines if I need to to keep them going. I like to get the correct mane, tail, eye color, and size first before worrying about traits because once both parents have those, the foals will always inherit them. Whereas mom and dad can both have a trait like Neck Fur, but the foal may not inherit it. So I like to lock down the "guaranteed" things (size, mane, tail, eye color) first. That also goes for when I introduce a new trait (like Head Diamond marking, or Layered Hoof Fur) into the gene pool. That is why my first step is always to crossbreed and try to get correct size and eye color. Then I work on getting correct mane and tail with the new trait I'm breeding in and work my way up from there. Brother and sister from same mom and dad can breed with each other, so one way to keep your breeding lines going is to get a male and female with all desired traits from the same pairing. (Trust me, that can take forever when you've got 9 or 10 traits to pass down!) I haven't tried to breed the right colors yet, but I would probably use crossbreeding to do it. It's how I've been getting new colors onto my personal projects, since it feels like a better chance to keep the traits I want than when breeding same species (since you can end up with extra traits from the new parent that you may not want, and at the very least crossbreeding "locks in" your mane and tail, when the outcome is the correct species).
Thanks so much for the easy to understand, wonderful video guide! Very helpful :) GL to everyone who tries to get high percents in the cosmetic contests!
I had a horse that had 25%, but it did not give me the predictable foll potion. I think it's probably because I inserted 2 horses. But I'm still confused on why now I'm very upset.
congrats on hitting 1k!
thank you! :D

this is so helpful! thank you for sharing
This is underrated! So much time spent into making this and only 28 likes !! And barely any comments 💢💢
As someone wo has 0 expirience in breeding, thanks! I dinndnt understand everything, but its still very helpfull!
Thanks so much for the easy to understand, wonderful video guide! Very helpful :) GL to everyone who tries to get high percents in the cosmetic contests!
UGHH TY this method was so easy you are a life saver!!
This is the first time that I came across your channel and I loved the vid, as soon as the video ended I subbed!
thank you so much!
New sub,so helpful! Love the strategy! I’m going to use this often 😊
Congrats on 1,1k you deserve it!!
This was really helpful I’m commenting to help others find this as well and get help❤❤
Tysm this helped alot Im gonna sub!!
thanks so much!
Thank You For This
Tysm! New sub
thank you so much!

maybe bc they raised it to 50% now
Anyone know how to use the mutation potion?
How to get other palettes ?
Is a pony with glow hair and glow keratin worth a predict pot?
Nah
Did they change the prizes? Now you need 50% for foal prediction pot?
they did - i got it in the same way, just had to keep breeding to get more traits, took a few hours longer
they nerfed it again
