Why do you like Cottonwood Ranch? I love how the horses are different and unique in their own ways and the contests to get these horses are very fun! It helps me improve my writing and upon occasion, my art >.< I have yet to participate in an event (Such as the mustang makeover. I was too late to enter ;n;), but they look interesting!
Would you make any improvements/changes? uuuhhh.... Nope.
What do you wish to see more of horse/color/breed wise? Nothing much. I love quarter horses, paints, and bashkir curlies, but you already have the majority of these covered!

Why do you like Cottonwood Ranch?
I love the the ranch because I love all of the adoptables and I learn new things everytime I enter for a new horse. I also love meeting all of the staff, you guys are truely awesome people!!
Would you make any improvements/changes?
Nothing in particular but I think more cross-bred horses would be awesome. Like ever since I heard about the Quarter Pony I've been thinking about maybe a Appaloosa Pony? <3 IDK.
What do you wish to see more of horse/color/breed wise?
APPALOOSAS!! <3 ... I love their colors!

Cottonwood Wild Horse Ranch is proud to announce.... a brand new Guest Artist contest!

This will be different than a normal guest artist application process- we hope it will be cleaner and easier to observe your skills before the event starts! If you are interested, take a look at the contest rules!

This Way!

(Any artists interested in becoming a judge, please PM me!)

{{Can't wait until customs and breedings are open. I want to gift a horse to my partner and I'm willing to pay 10 C$ for it... I know its not much but I am only a newer user...

Why do you like Cottonwood Ranch? I like realistic horse lines so I was naturally drawn to them
Would you make any improvements/changes? Have a few more active artists, also I'm not a big fan of the foal lines so that could use some tweaking, also maybe add new mane & tail sets just to shake things up a bit. Those are just my opinions.
What do you wish to see more of horse/color/breed wise? I would really like to see more 2-3 day adopts, maybe some more roans or dapples too.

Why do you like Cottonwood Ranch?:
I enjoy the variety of horses you can choose from and the beautiful lines they come in
Would you make any improvements/changes?:
I might make a gift line, I don't know if that's an improvement...
What do you wish to see more of horse/color/breed wise?:
I just love dark seal brown dapple coats colors. Of I saw just a few more of those I would try out for, I would be the happiest girl alive!

Why do you like Cottonwood Ranch?
I love just about everything- the clean and simple lines, the incredible variety, the fantastic staff, etc. Everything comes together to create a brilliant adoptable that is a pleasure to be a part of.
Would you make any improvements/changes?
My only suggestion would be to open customs/breedings at least once a month. It can get a bit tedious waiting to have your dream horse created in these lines.
What do you wish to see more of horse/color/breed wise?
I'd love to see some more Orlov Trotters. There are only two that I know of from Cottonwood. It would also be nice to see some more simple and solid horses, since I always run into loads of paints when looking to adopt.

Why do you like Cottonwood Ranch? oh my gosh, where to begin? i've been a horse fanatic since probably about 3 years old, which is over a decade ago i feel old o.o and i've ridden ever since i was 6. horses are pretty much my life, and this is the coolest thing ever besides HorseIsle. seriously, it's amazing lines, beautiful horses, and so many wonderful people, i can't even begin. oh my gosh. this place is just //flails SO AMAZING.
Would you make any improvements/changes? i would improve one thing, and that's the availability of customs/breedings. i have NEVER been able to snag a custom, in my over-a-year-of-being-here( since about a month before the previous Mustang Makeover), and only received mine, Frag Bomb, because teresa was nice enough to give a newbie their first horse. i think customs should be open at least once every two months, if not once a month, and breedings should open whenever an artist feels like doing them. i don't think artists should be limited to opening their slots all at the same time, but rather they should be able to choose. that's both fairer on the artists and the users, as it's quite unlikely that all artists are in the same time zone and hopefully the times would be good enough so that everyone has a fair chance.
What do you wish to see more of horse/color/breed wise?
RAVEN BLACKS. RAVEN BLACKS EVERYWHERE.
seriously though. raven blacks and blood, wild, or mahogany bays. wild/pangare bays are common enough but i almost NEVER see the other colors. and flaxen chocolate or whatever it is ?? definitely need some of those, especially with splash overo/tovero. yesss. and also some pearl duns, mulberry greys, dunalinos, and silver grullas. NEVER ENOUGH OF THOSE. //flails
breed-wise, some Florida Crackers or other state/country-specific breeds would be so cool. home pride, yay xD
and, marking-wise, i would DEFINITELY love to see some more horses with lacing or brindling/reverse brindling. i don't notice a lot of duns, but it would be really cool to see a few with cobwebbing (it's a dun thing, look it up).

thank you guys for hearing me out and i'm very happy to finally //shot be joining you guys on the fanclub!

I gotta make a comment about this, to our fans/members. (Welcome to the club, by the way, Vapor!)

The reason why we have had limited sessions this summer is due to every artist being swamped. We limit our sessions because if breedings were open all the time, we'd never stop getting orders. It is possible to snag the occasional out of session custom or breeding, if you watch artists and see how they're doing.

That being said: Our sessions will happen when we are properly prepared. You'd rather have a session when us artists are prepared, calm, and ready to go- your horses will turn out better. No one has been complaining or anything, but we will keep working on it! :3 I think we should be opening again, sometime soon! My computer is currently out of commission for a few more days, but we will get things handled.
