This is lovely! So you're just updating the zebras. So to clarify, furture zebra litters possibly on the near future?

it's not certain yet, but it is a definite possibility that we may include the zebras (as ultra rare outcomes) in future horse/pony litters like we used to do a few years ago

the rarity for those outcomes was always so high that it was basically like winning the lottery if you got one, there were only a few zebras per month, so it shouldn't affect the rarity noticeably

however, aside from re-releasing the existing outcomes we will probably make a new zebra outcome or 2 for a special occasion so that everyone has a chance to own a zebra pet (like when we updated the unicorn linearts and released a few special unicorns not long afterward)

For those who don't know, zebras were more than just a Christmas UR. We used to hide them within horse/pony litters as a super rare outcome every month (like the july lion, except much much rarer, and the same outcomes were repeated every month.) Only about 4 were adopted each month, which is how they stayed OMGSR.



Oh thats great then :D
i was hoping the rarity wont drop like a bomb ;)


Oh wow that would be amazing
Great idea
Can't wait to see the new lines

This is really exciting news, especially the releasing Zebras into litters. Of course obviously it's not something to get your hopes up about, but it does sound fun! Especially looking forward to possibly more Zebra releases.
I was curious though, will you guys be releasing them into the litters before or after the LA changes? I'm assuming after, but I might as well ask.
Also, will the Zebra lineart be stages, or just the adult Zebra lines?

Back of the car
Blankets and me and you
We're running on perfectly wasted youth
I'll hold you close
We'll call this home tonight

And the fake tattoo that you drew on my arm
Had an X and an O
Never change who you are
Throw our hearts in the air

there are newborns, child foals, and adult stages for the update

the newborns are the best thing you'll ever see

we won't put them in any litters until after they've changed, so there won't be any for March releases
