All horses must be between 13 and 18 hands tall, but a maximum of 2 inches above or below the breed standard is permitted for natural variation. Please be as specific as possible regarding your character's color so that we can list it accurately on the members page (e.g. specifying base colors for gray horses; specifying a particular pinto pattern; etc). However, you do not need to have any particular knowledge of color genetics; the mods will help you with this if needed.

Hey there!

Just a couple of things! Horse height is measured in 4 inch increments called hands. So it goes 13.0, 13.1, 13.2, 13.3, 14.0, 14.1, and so on. 16.5 and 15.6 are invalid heights for your girls unfortunately.

As for genetics, Nightshade is basically correct (EE aa RnSb), and Mistletoe would need just a little tweaking. (Ee Ata nCr Dd nRb). Birdcatcher spots do not currently have a known gene and are not reliably hereditary.

The only other note I wanted to mention is just that on TLI all foals are born in spring, so for them to be born a half a year apart would require them not being born on TLI. This is perfectly acceptable of course, I just wanted to make a note of it for you.

Let me know what you would like to do for their heights and we can get you all set up. :)
