WHAT IS PEDIGREE ASSIGNMENT?

What is pedigree assignment? Although we sometimes refer to it as breeding model horses, nobody expects their plastic ponies to actually procreate. Pedigree assignment is the research of real horse bloodlines and genetics and assigning pedigrees to models of appropriate breed type and color. A model ID may be identity only (no model) or assigned to an actual figurine. Most people start out with real bloodlines as the basis of their foundation horses and then "breed" from those bloodlines or those of other hobbyists, creating many successive generations of models. Most pedigree assigners are proud of their realistic bloodlines and take great care to make sure the "foal" is the correct color and body type for those bloodlines.

POLICIES

If you do not need a paper copy of a breeding certificate, fees are free.
If you would like to request a paper copy please send an business sized SASE.

Please note that the models shown on these pages are currently not for sale. Please email Jamie: [email protected] or check out the LINKS page for current sale models or to visit galleries of past work.

All breedings must be approved and given permission, do not use these stallions or the photos without my permission. BSO breedings are acceptable. Models should be of appropriate breed type. Crossbreds are allowed for most stallions but must be approved first.

All foals must age. Foals (current year and yearlings) are allowed, they may remain foals/yearlings as long as the stallion is alive, the foal ID expires one year (2 years for yearlings) after the stallion's last breeding season. The ID may then be aged or "destroyed".

Include your E-mail address so I can send you approval without having to wait for the certificate.

Photos and updates of stallions' offspring are always appreciated!

ALL horses trace back to real horses on both sides of pedigree although several do have many (carefully chosen) "model" generations. All pedigrees are designed to live on, no matter what happens to the actual models!

Please direct E-mails to: [email protected] and put "Breeding request" in subject line.
