Help, Newbie alert - why are so many foundations (without colour herd helper) chestnut?
-
Hi,
The title says it all really - why is chestnut and bay I spose so common? -
Because they are in real life.Need to contact me? Read this first. Only send me a PM for PayPal issues or if I ask you to. Otherwise, make a forum post. You will get a better faster answer by making a post.
I sometimes get busy and miss things. If your private message, question, etc. gets missed please ping me so I can follow up with you. I am also always happy to explain or clarify. (HAJ does not have a customer service email, please send me a forum message! )

Ammit has said it all, but I will add that one of the attractions of this game for me is that so many aspects of it are modeled on real life and so aren't completely predicable.
There are always enough wonderful surprises to off-set the disappointing ones. I remember breeding two black horses (the mare hadn't been color tested) and being astonished when they produced a palomino foal. So I tested the mare and found out that she was a Smokey Black and carried a hidden cream gene.De gustibus non disputandum. "There's no arguing about tastes."

That is true - just in the sales I can only find chestnut foundies - like ONLY.
Thanks though ;) -
Also because the less common ones sell. :) check auctions and sales. I put several decent foundries in the public auction for tomorrow.

Diamond Tokens 10% off!
Barn expansions using DTs are now permanently half the price. Also, you can now reset your horse's "Foals this Season" count to zero using a DT. To celebrate both, DTs are 10% off for the next 10 days.1/4/2026 4:34 PM EST
Golden Tokens have been renamed Diamond Tokens to prevent mixing them up with GMTs. Double boosted over cap horses are now designated as ****Star or ****Gold, again to prevent further member confusion issues I have been seeing.
