Pegasus of Faerie Breeding Center

Breeding Guidelines
✦ All Pegasus of Faerie start with 10 breeding slots initially. They gain 2 additional slots per year, this goes into effect to the first of the year so a POF created in 2025 gets two more slots 1/1/2026, then two more 1/1/2027, etc.
✦ There is no cool down period, a pegasus can be rebred whenever an artist has slots available.
✦ You may only have one pending breeding at a time, another can be requested if slots are available once the pending breeding is completed.
✦ Pegasus of any gender can be bred together so long as they are not related within 3 generations.
✦ Breeding is open at artist discretion.
✦ Pegasus created prior to ownership change are valid but will need their height to be within current standards 28-34 inches. If you'd like to choose their height owners can simply post on the original adoption page.

What the heck do those crazy colors do in a breeding??
What a great question! As with anything, it's complicated and largely artist discretion.
✦ Two standard color Pegasus will follow typical horse genetics, at least approximately, genetics are complicated.
✦ Crossing a non-standard Pegasus with a standard colored will most commonly create a standard color Pegasus with accents in non-standard colored markings or mane and tail. Though it can result in a foal that is non-standard similar to the non-standard parent with color lightened, darkened or muted from the standard color parent.
✦ Crossing two non-standard Pegasus can end up with all sorts of combinations.
- It can result in colors from both, base from one and mane and tail from the other, for example.
- Or it can result in a color that would result from mixing those two colors together, like paint, so red and blue could result in a purple foal.
- Or it can result in an outcome between the two on the color spectrum so purple to yellow could result in a green, blue or teal foal.
✦ For this reason if you are looking for a specific color combination type, please list that in the breeding request. Breeding is largely artist discretion, there are a lot of options to create the opportunity for a lot of interesting combinations.
Here are some examples of how colors might mix to hopefully make things easier to understand. If you have questions, please post on the main adoption center!
