So if they have the LP gene they will always show spots. Breeding two of these unspotted babies (with LP Daddies) to each other will never produce spots until they mate with a horse with spots, right?

Thanks!!!

Kind of. The only exception is Varnish Roan and Snowflake. If a horse inherits the LP gene, but doesn't get ANY of the Pattern Genes (there are a bunch of them) then they could appear like a horse that doesn't have LP for the first few years of their life. Snowflakes will begin to appear around 1 year old, and Varnish Roan will start showing up very slowly after a few years. So these horses would give you a higher chance of getting spots, even if they themselves do not have spots.

Hi! Tell me please. Can there be snowflakes separate from varnishes?
What do alleles mean in the understanding of this game?
I want horses with snowflakes, but I want them to be bright, not gray. Can genes be separated? If Yes, please tell me how to do it?

Snowflake (as well as all spotted pattern genes) will only show up if a horse has varnish roan. You can probably breed horses to have varnish roan show up later in life to the point where they appear not to have varnish roan - I did a similar thing with fleabitten greys (the fleabites only showed up well after 20 years) so you might be able to do that with varnish roan but I'm not sure.

I'm leaning towards it too, but I'd like to hear it from the developers.

Hello! YOu can see the breed variations if you go down the drop bar and hit help, then Breeds Wiki, (https://www.horseworldonline.net/wiki/breeds) and then click on the Appaloosa breed. Here is the link to the Appaloosa breed: https://www.horseworldonline.net/wiki/breed/73. The formula for an Appaloosa is: Spanish Jennet x [Quarter Horse x Mustang]. Have a great day!
