About
This will be main forum post to update my breeding programs (BPs). I've had other logs and posts before but i want to keep things more organized from now on. This post wil be a compilation of other posts in this same thread, made primarily to keep myself on track of my projects. Any relevant farm updates will be recorded at the section "Main Logs". BP updates will be at each BP post, linked at "Current Breeding Projects" section. Other sections might be added with miscellanous info with time.

Black Forest Drafts

Post by Hawkeye »

Black Forest Drafts
I've always thought Black Forest Horses were Silver maned, but some studies indicated that they are actually liver flaxen chestnuts. I love that color and the draft horses. So, i am building a herd of light-draft horses with liver chestnut color, very light flaxen mane and four long socks. Face markings will be allowed as stars but not as blazes (that looks too much like a Clydesdale).

Main Objectives:

Farm Logs
22/12/2023: Small herd of AC horses created
17/01/2024: Interesting case of plume gene. I might plan on working with it later.

This is just a post to mark my return to the site. I always go on hiatus and come back occasionally, so i will register every time i go back. Later today i will be doing an analysis of how i left things and reorganize my next steps.

Currently:

1. I will change my Lusitano breeding program for my Norman Cob.
2. I need to get 100% Tarpan herd from my current herd.
