The Range Trotter Breeders Association has gone wild, matching up a collection of their finest horses. The results? A mystery! Much like the practice of buying a foal in utero (i.e. before it's born), these adopts will also be unknown until they are "born". You will be able to see the parents, and apply for adoption based on their potential genetic combinations. Look out though! DNA is a tricky substance, and the way we've been messing with it some unexpected results may occur.
♥ This year we will be offering Sweetheart Foals for the month of February, to give everyone a chance at these cuties!
♥ All foals will be singletons, no twins will result from these pairs. (A few exception may be made this year)
♥ Although we are borrowing existing Trotter genotypes for this event, these foals will not count against their "parents" foal slots, and will be listed as Foundation bred.
♥ Adopts will run as normal, with artists offering prompts and contests for application.
♥ Foal will be under covers as they are created, with the final adult forms being revealed on their grow date.
♥ While all genes are on the table for this event, it is still up to the artists if they wish to pass on edits or other extras; individual requests will not be taken.
Good luck, and enjoy!

[size=85][center][quote]Range Trotters are the result of crossbreeding Orlov Trotters, Finnhorses, Welsh Cobs (section C & D) and Hanoverians. Later crosses of Quarter Horses, Paint and Appaloosas to gain color and to give a boost to their hardiness.With a height average of 13-15 hands, they're a hardy breed with characteristics for various disciplines.
Created for use as work, carriage and leisure riding horses originally, they now serve as long-distance range horses, such as work with Park Rangers and mounted officers.
Willing and eager personalities, most are quickly trained to be bombproof and therefore trusted mounts in all lines of work; some are being seen in local show jumping competitions, others are notably used in therapeutic sessions for their calm temperaments. Harness races and endurance trials are common for the breed, as they are able to sustain an extended trot without tire. Cross-Country competitions see some of the taller Trotters, but due to their cob lineage this is still uncommon.
Despite the variety of competitions and work these horses are being seen in, they are still famously skilled as endurance racers. Many competitors have chosen Range Trotters due to their tireless work ethic, as well as the ease in which they can be trained. Many have become champions in endurance trials, and they have quickly become a sought after breed for their natural ability.[/quote][/center]
