Guess Those Genetics...Revived!
  • I haven't seen a game like this pop up since TheBlueMoors hosted one in 2023, so let's do it again! Same rules, different prizes because my daily payout isn't that big right now.

    Once again, some of the studs got out, ran amok, and sowed their wild oats and now I have to figure out these babies and what they will carry! Can you pretty please help me out again?

    Here's how the scoring will work!
    Color name:
    +1 point for each correct name
    +1 point if it is in the correct order as written on HGG
    Ex: a Silver Smoky Blue Roan- if you type Smoky Silver Blue Roan, you will get 4 points for having all three names but no extra point because Silver is not in the correct order for a total of 4 points out of 5 possible points.
    NO penalties for incorrect guesses.

    Genome:
    +2 points for each correct set of alleles in correct order
    +1 point for correct set of alleles but incorrect order
    +1/2 point for 1 correct allele but missing other one (i.e. foal has 2 copies of flaxen but you wrote f/_)
    Pay attention carefully though- this is where you can lose points!
    -1/2 a point if you miss a set of alleles that the foal has (i.e. foal has flaxen and you didn't write at least f/_),

    White factor will be used as a tiebreaker so please include them in all your guesses!

    This is an example of what I am looking for:

    Name: OTTB1
    ID: 13692

    Foal 1: Gray Silver Amber Cream Champagne Roan Dun Splash Tobiano Frame Appaloosa Rabicano
    genome: e/E a/A -/Cr -/D -/G -/Z -/Ch f/f -/Sty p/- R/TO -/SW1 -/LP O/- -/RB white factor: minimal

    Foal 2: name here
    genome: sequence here

    Foal 3: name here
    genome: sequence here

    This contest will close to new entries June 26th and the winners will be announced on or before June 30th.

    Let's get warmed up!

    Good luck to everyone and I hope yall enjoy!

    (Copied and edited from TheBlueMoors Nov 2023 version because it was well designed and well run)
    (Sires and mares were semi-randomly chosen from both my own and others' horses, and paired together, all double star papered, bred to 12 day pasture mares because I didn't have any 30+ day mares left, all ended up altered due to SBA. All named with the generator, I love that most of them make some sort of sense!)
  • Omg this kind of stuff is so hard for me. Do we need to guess a color/genome for all the foals? This might take me a while lol
  • I am assuming that looking at the parents' genotypes would be cheating and is forbidden, but I just want to check!
  • @AquariusRanch yes, for all of the foals. Any guess is a good guess.

    @Rusalka You can look at the parents genotypes, there’s plenty of things to get right or wrong with punnet squares. You can also use the search to find horses that might (according to you) match. I plan on guessing myself and see some of them as easier and some as harder.
