!Welcome to Pigeon Creek!
Here we strive to bring you the best horses possible ! Whether you want a relaxing ranch life or one filled with competition and shows!
To start off with lets get the rules down!
1.Credit Roy for their designs!
2. When a horse "dies" in this forum it doesnt mean you cant keep the horse as an oc! once it is removed from the game and your ranch roster you are free to use that horse design however you wish! or you can buy a rebirth token, using it on a pregnant mare will result in the rebirth of your horse!
3. Don't resell the design for more than what you have bought it for + have spent on it on the game!
4. When using the services of another player of the adopt game please send ebs to them!
(more to come if I think of more!)
Now this part will be the longest but please give it a good read! This is a very complicated forum game and has some strict gameplay rules!

Well theres a few different options! You may sell your horses and foals to other ranchers or surrender them to the Falls! The Falls is a non-profit horse adoption service. New ranchers can often visit here to help build their ranches up!
6.What is the Falls?
The Falls is a horse and foal adoption center where players can surrender unwanted horses and let other ranchers adopt them out!
7. How does breeding work?
This is a tricky thing to do here! You have to be careful with breeding! See in this game we carry a genetics system, A-Z. To breed two of your own horse would only cost you a vet fee to help your mare foal safely and do standard check-ups. To Breed to another ranchers brood or stud you would pay that rancher and then a small vet fee for the standard vet check ups
8. Genetics
Now here's where breeding becomes dangerous. Inorder to have healthy happy foals you will need to pair your horses up smartly. Mis-matching genes is healthy and will result in healthy foals. breeding the same gene could be fatal and result in sick and weak foals. Each horse as a 2 strand genetic code. For example it'll look like this A || S.
Lets say your mare has the genetic code A||S and you have two stallions. One A||M and one O||B. You need to breed the OB with your AS Mare. Since your AM and AS stallion and mare could breed a potential AA! AA or any double gene is not desired as it causes sickly foals or even still births or miscarriages ! Be careful ranchers!
