Foaling

Here players may come to create The Lost Islands' next generation. Please consult the Rules page before posting here to breed your characters to ensure you understand the process and options available.

Please ensure that you have included all necessary information, including stats, perk use, player permissions, and any requests before you post. Please also make sure that you respond to any further choices the mods give you.

Foals that are not named by the time the boards are updated may be deleted and considered stillborn, so please ensure the player of the foal names them promptly and includes any information about defects or chimeric expression (if applicable).

For each breeding, a request may be made for the gender of the foal, and the presence (not zygosity) of a gene for free. If you choose to randomize all other stats for the foal, you may request a healthy foal. Any further customization of the foal would require a custom foal perk. Once per season, a player may request a specific foal color, provided it is possible with the selected parents.

Name: Kalamchoe. Defect: Inside

Defect - Hypothyroidism

Hypothyroidism

Foals in Western Canada and the Northwestern United States are most susceptible to congenital hypothyroidism. While the thyroid is developing in the womb, this disease decreases its function. Congenital hypothyroidism often results in foal deaths. Typically, signs of the disease include a long gestation and an extremely difficult delivery. Despite the complete gestation, foals with hypothyroidism are born looking premature, with lax joints and tendons, poor muscles, contracted legs, a protruding lower jaw, umbilical hernias and / or silky hair coats.

Info from Park Cuty Equine.
