I'm confused, its the last day of the month but I still have Staff litter pups that haven't grown? Is this a mistake?

-snip-

No, it's pretty common for the staff litter, they usually go for one growth per day, and often there's more than 15/30 days' worth of them. c:

Yeah there are 33 outcomes. Even though multiple grow to 2nd stage per day early on in the litter, when they get to the final stage it is one growth per day from the staff litter. So each growth has a whole day to be special. =) They are still growing.

do we know what animals the ponies are based on? i've seen only three outcomes were recognized.

You mean the pps ponies? I’m pretty sure they are all based on plains zebras. Specifically the color pattern mutations that have been occurring due to herd isolation


Small theory to, I think all the outcomes are pps because these mutations are most commonly seen in foals as most of the time the mutations cause the foals to stand out rather than blending in. Last I checked there were only a hand full of adult zebras with some type of color mutation.

but do they have specific names?

When I was reading about this phenomenon, it was the beginning of the year, so pattern names were pretty much just descriptions,so they may have been changed.
melanistic/solid/no or little striping

same as last boy, but also sometimes called spotted (you may see the very chopped up stripes on the belly and rump sorta resembles spots)
piebald

regular ol plaines zebra foal

diluted

leucistic
