Radical Reptiles!

Hello everyone! I hope you all had an amazing weekend! With Amaretto’s 8th birthday approaching quickly I wanted to take a moment to share with you something that was announced at our 7th birthday last year! On September 1, 2017 Amaretto celebrated our 7 Year anniversary with a big Vegas Birthday Bash! It was announced that you could have your chance at getting a Reptile horse by breeding together any two reptile eyes.

Here is a list of the Reptile eyes that you can breed together to get a Reptile Horse:
Crocodile
Rough Green Snake
Green Tree Monitor Lizard
Tokay Gecko

Take a look at the Reptile Eyes here:http://wiki.amarettobreedables.com/index.php?title=Reptile_Eyes

There are 4 Reptile Horses currently:

Green Tree Monitor Lizard Reptile
Rough Green Snake Reptile
Crocodile Reptile
Tokay Gecko Reptile

Take a look at the Reptile Coats here: http://wiki.amarettobreedables.com/index.php?title=Reptile_Horses

 

Remember you can breed any combination of these eyes to have a chance at a reptile horse. The Reptile horse you get will be randomly chosen from the 4 currently available.

Happy Reptile Breeding!

Until next time…

Exotic Birds!

Hi everyone and I hope your weekend is going great!

Today I wanted to take a moment to talk a little about Exotic Barnyard Birds!Exotic Birds are very special birds that can be born at random from ANY bird breeding combination. And the great thing about these special and rare birds is that they will give a gradual boost to the Vivacity of birds within 10 meters over a period of time! When you breed an Exotic Bird (whether it is with another Exotic Bird or any other bird) you DO have an increased chance at receiving another random Exotic Bird. The Exotic Birds are NOT able to pass their breed or eyes. However, you could get extremely lucky and birth another Exotic Bird. The non-Exotic offspring of Exotic Birds do NOT have an increased chance of producing Exotic Birds. Let’s take a look at this gorgeous birds below!

As an added twist to the Barnyard Birds the Exotic Birds that are Special/Rare Birds have the possibility of being found in the Starter Packs**

Amaretto Mules!

Hi everyone and Happy Friday! It’s time for the weekend! I wanted to take a quick moment to tell you about the adorable Mules!

How do you get a mule you ask? well you can get the Ash, Brass and Sienna Mule from breeding any of the Haven Donkeys that you can buy from any Haven Vendor with Haven Points with any Amaretto horse (NOT another Haven Donkey) to get a chance at getting one of these special Mules!

However the Black Mule came from breeding the 2013 Limited Edition Cinco de Mayo Donkeys with any Amaretto Horse. WIKI LINK HERE

The White Mule came from breeding the 2017 Cinco De Mayo – El Primer Caballer Donkeys with any Amaretto Horse. WIKI LINK HERE

Mules do not have the ability to pass their coats.

I hope you all have an amazing weekend! Happy breeding!

Until next time…

 

BAD_DATA_NO_PARENTS…………..

Hello everyone its another terrific Thursday! I wanted to take some time to talk to you guys about something that i have noticed a couple of you guys have filed tickets about.

You have found the perfect pair of your favorite amaretto animals birthed and feed and are ready to breed! Then your waiting the entire pregnancy if there is one and awaiting your prized off spring, its drops and you click on it and it says BAD_DATA_NO_PARENTS and will not birth. No it doesnt mean your OS is an orphan!

 

Oh NO!!! What did you do wrong? What happened? Well lets look at a couple reasons you may get a bundle with this text BAD_DATA_NO_PARENTS.

The #1 reason why you will receive a bundle that says BAD_DATA_NO_PARENTS is because your horses are not the latest current version. For you to get viable bundles you must be breeding the most current version which is currently 6.0 for horses.

If you relieve a kennel, nest or a basket that says BAD_DATA_NO_PARENTS is because your k9, birds or ponies are not the latest current version. For you to get viable Kennels and baskets you you must be breeding the most current version which is currently Version 2.2 for K9s, Version 3.0 and Version 1.20 for Ponies

There could be 2 reason why you might receive a nest that says .BAD_DATA_NO_PARENTS the first one being the above mentioned if your birds are not Version 3.0 you will not get a viable nest. The 2nd reason why this may happen is if your birds cycles are not showing the correct amount or showing a negative cycle count.

So what do you do ? Well its simple all you have to update your breedable and breed them again if it is a Ponie or a bird updating it will give you the cycle or descendant back. If your Barnyard Bird has a negative cycle count and is the latest current version you will need to send in the rooster and the hen so that we can repair both of them and get you back on the breeding track! It doesn’t matter what animal you are breeding we will not be able to give you an viable offspring for your BAD_DATA_NO_PARENTS Offspring!

Remember if ever in doubt just ask we are always here to help! Hope everyone has a wonderful day! Happy breeding everyone!

Wait thats not all because we need to talk about the next monthly breeding for our other animals! Thats right 2 months flew by and its time for us to get a new K9, Barnyard Bird, and Ponie!

It’s National Lamington Day!

Happy Saturday everyone ~ hope you are all having a super day!!

Today is National Lamington Day!! Well you say what is a Lamington?

A lamington is a sweet snack from Australia that is cake-based and generally eaten for morning tea, afternoon tea, or high tea. This delicious treat was a kitchen mix-up that became Australia’s most famous culinary icon.

The History of Lamington Day
At over a century old, this treat was named after the Governor of Queensland, Lord Lamington. The story goes that he was having his favorite yellow sponge cake served for his guests when the maid-servant accidentally dropped the cake into melted chocolate. When his Lordship heard he was the one who recommended them to roll the squares in coconut shavings to make them less messy for guests to eat with their tea.
There is even an Australian Lamington appreciation society (ALAS) which is committed to the preservation of their world famous Lamingtons, and annually celebrating Lamington Day.

How to Celebrate Lamington Day
Lamington Day would be a great day to try out a new recipe and have your lamington and invite friends over for afternoon tea!

 

Traditional Australian Lamington

 

Enjoy this treat that was originated in Australia and while you are out it why not check out this gorgeous Flags of the World eye from the land of the Lamington origin!!

 

Until next time this is Snookie saying have a terrific weekend and Happy Breeding!!

 

 

National Lollipop Day!

Hello everyone and Happy Friday! Did you know that today is National Lollipop day?! The National Confectioners Association founded National Lollipop Day. George Smith, owner of Bradley Smith Company, invented and patented the Lollipop in 1908. Legend has it, that George named the Lollipop after his favorite racehorse ” Lolly Pop”. In honor of this yummy day, I wanted to take a moment to share with you all the fun lollipop traits Amaretto has for you to enjoy!

The first trait I want to tell you about is the Lollipop Confection eye. When the version 3.2 Horse update came out on January 30, 2012 these exciting new eyes were hidden in new starters. More confection eyes were added in the 4.0 update released September 9, 2013. The Confection Eyes are one set of many exciting possible Non-Starter eyes that can come from breeding “Starter Coats”. You can have a chance at one of these exciting Non-Starter Confection Eyes by breeding any horse with a starter horse or by breeding together two starter horses.These eyes CAN be passed on.

And that leads me to the Looney Leg Lollipop!! Breeders could get this delicious Looney Leg trait by breeding 2 Lollipop Eyes together December 1 -December 31, 2016.The Looney Legs were introduced to breeders on June 1, 2016! The Looney Leg replaced the Crazed Horses. Starting on the 1st of the month Amaretto will announce what you must breed together to get that months Looney Legs! To get a Looney Leg you must have bred two horses that have the trait that was announced for that particular month!

This are deliciously adorable traits and would make a great addition to many breeding creations!

Happy Lollipop Day!!

Until next time….
