Idea for expanding breeding stock

[Snowflake]

Hey guys,

I had an idea today, to help keep breeding options open and interesting
You know how we often have creates that are pretty decent racers? Well what if we created their parents after the fact to breed siblings?

[*Ripley*]

Hmmm... I'm potentially interested. It'd be cool to have half-sibling/full-sibling to Touch Up or El Sol Del Mar back in my racing ranks xD.

I have nothing truly against other people doing that, but I know that I would not do it XD

[Cruisey]

I kind of like that idea, just cause Speak Easy is my fav create ever and he's precious and I would love to have another Speak Easy sibling xD

I like it and sort of did it with Rulers Secret and Passion Heart it could help in some cases.

[Isabelle]

Hhmm. I have nothing against it, I guess I personally probably wouldn't do it, I see creates sort of as the beginning of a new bloodline. I've created a bunch of new creates to work with in my fuzzy stables now, sort of like the idea of the unknown horse. Others might want to do it tho I dunno might be more interesting to see more created horses to expand future stock, but I suppose technically you're creating created stock to give lineage to a few horses, so I guess it's basically the same thing XD

I don't have anything against it. Although I agree with Isa on creates are supposed to be new lines. However if we wanted this to be more realistic and have our creates have parents, this is a pretty good idea. I don't know if I would do it but I wouldn't mind it either.

[rendezvous]

I like the idea.

If we made the parents of created horses (nothing beyond the parent lineage) we could say something that they're "imported" lines or "foundation lines" on say, Speak Easy's notes somewhere.

I really like this idea and have considered it personally since being here. To make to realistic a member could say they've recently bought so and so's sire/dam both etc. could see the same thing being done for siblings as well.

[Snowflake]

The idea is that they will be new lines, just without the waiting time XD So instead of just waiting 6 or 8 years for the created horse to finish racing, breed and finally the first foal hits the track, we can create that horse's parents and breed from them. I don't know about everyone else, but I feel like my breeding options are somewhat limited with some of my lined bloodstock. Some of my horses have at least four HOFers in the lines which means they are related to much of the population. So if everyone is happy with this idea, we can introduce it

Also I wouldn't be against someone back dating the breeding's either. e.g. creating the parents and then a racing age sibling.

I'm completely okay with this. I think it well help to diversify some lines too.

[Holly]

I have to say Im all for this. Yes I do agree with Isa. Created horses should be the start of new lines. But I really wouldnt mind trying this out. Would be nice to have some siblings of some of these magnificent creates.

I really do like this idea Snowy. Like you said, it IS expanding our breeding stock and opening up the lines that we can breed with. Created horses have lineage, I just have always thought of the sire and dam as being "unknown" instead of non-existent. I would definitely utilize this if we put it into effect. A Handsome Tabby full sibling would be fun to play with...

[Sammy]

I could totally create Red Admirals parentage make it fun. I really do like this idea

[Snowflake]

I'm thinking about a full bro to Rising Fury xD
