There's only one thing in the world more adorable than a Teacup Draft or Teacup Mule... and that's a BABY Teacup Draft or Teacup Mule!!

We are now opening up the opportunity to breed your Teacups! Just follow the steps below!

Step One: eyeball your lineage -- inbreeding is not allowed!
Step Two: check the ages of your sire & dam -- Teacups must be at least 5 years old to be bred!
Step Three: if the sire or dam are owned by someone else, your breeding slot MUST be marked as ready to use!
Step Four: create a breeding pic of the sire & dam! This can be a pair of headshots or a full-body, artist's choice!
Step Four: submit your breeding pic of the happy couple to the Breeding Art gallery, with the Breeding Form below filled out in the Artist's Comment section.
Step Five: Group Admins will process your breeding pic and leave a comment respond with your genos. You'll be provided with two genotypes to choose between. Choose wisely.
Step Five: download the Teacup-Registry group Foal Lines and design your foal! When you've finished, upload it to the Foal Designs gallery.
Step Six: Group Admins will review your foal design -- and if necessary, you may be asked to make changes. These changes will be required beforea foal design can be approved.
Step Seven: once a foal design is approved, you are asked to register that foal within a reasonable amount of time.

BREEDING FORM: MUST be included in the artist's comment field, with working links!
Sire: [must provide link]
Dam: [must provide link]

Additional notes on breedings:

Remember -- Mule x Mule breedings are infertile -- to get a foal from a Teacup Mule, the mule must be bred back to the Teacup Draft.
Teacup Drafts x Teacup Mule breedings have a 50/50 chance in resulting in a mule OR a draft foal.
Chimera genetics can be passed on to foals! Chimeras are considered to have two separate breedable sets of genetic. If a chimera's breeding partner is also a chimera, their chimera genetics will be combined. A chimera bred to a non-chimera will have the non-chimera's base coat applied, if the chimera genetic has been found to pass on to the foal.
There are random chances for Bend-Or/Birdcatcher Spots, Brindle/Reverse Brindle, and Somatic coat. There is also a very tiny chance for Twins.
