My sister is unable to drive today with her illness, so I'm hoping to bring her car in within the next week for its desperately needed oil change.

Angel,
I've just been so busy, ahah! <3 I think I'm one of the only ones in my family at the moment with a working car and it's been a struggle. LOL

I just earned almost 40k in profit last night which is the most I have earned since starting my gelding army.

Speaking of geldings, I've got a heck ton of level 10s that I need to tell to get out lol

12:46:18 Heyy it's Capp

Yeah CWY, youve got room to grow for sure. On my sides one is ~150 horses and the other about 300 then one with under 100 but I just dont want o buy another barn yet LOL they make ok profit considering I dont want them to be as big as this account

I probably have about 1k horses that I show, but you have to remember they won't all be ready to show at the same time. I have never hit the show cap lol

I have at present 180 SD show geldings. They brought in 180k this week, which is about average for them.

Angels angels

12:44:07 [1k+ brindles] Angel

I also show everyone

Okay, thank you Capp.

Angel, I mean I get it, but the cap also makes sense and currently for geldings alone I have 152. But, I also show all of my horses right now.

I have around 950 geldings. I make show cap so thats enough for me

Cappuccino

12:42:57 Heyy it's Capp

And all my horses, regardless of sex, show.

Cappuccino

12:42:37 Heyy it's Capp

Theres a show cap of 1500 so *to me* it doesnt make sense having "extra" horses if youre hitting the cap. Some people do tho but it's too much for me. Im about 1100 horses total

Angels angels

12:42:24 [1k+ brindles] Angel

More geldings = More money
so that is like asking how much money is too much XD

Angels angels

CWY
Never enough

CWY country

12:41:28 C

Now, a question I have though... When is enough is enough with geldings? Like with the amount of barns and amount of geldings XD. Or is there never enough?

Cappuccino

12:41:13 Heyy it's Capp

I guess since Ive got so many I dont really bother with them...the horses in the green offset any costs but without the offset....I get that

So, I've been reading up on horse genetics for RL. And came across something that's interesting. We all know that having homozygous WW results in Lethal white. But in RL, homo Rn results in a foal dying in the womb. Is this an oversight in the genetics?

I had a look and it seems that although that used to be thought to be true, it's not actually true.

"Although it has been suggested that Roan is a homozygous lethal, evidence from the Quarter Horse breed indicates otherwise. Production records have documented the existence of Roan Quarter Horses that produce 100% Roan foals. DNA tests have confirmed homozygosity in the genomic region that contains the Roan gene."

EDIT: I'm happy to be proven wrong because all i did was google search :P

Gemini is correct. It stems from the fact that a heterozygous roan and a homozygous roan both look very similar. So, people kinda thought that since there wasn't any noticeable difference, that homozygous roans didn't exist.
