Write a breed description, win 5 BC tokens! Ends Thursday Morning (Sept 7th)
  • I am running a quick contest to write the descriptions for the new breed characteristics. For each one, I need a roughly 250-character-long blurb about the real-life breed (about 3 sentences). It must be between 200 and 300 characters long. This is strictly enforced and I will toss out anything less than 200 or more than 300 characters.

    Please use a Character Counter to confirm your length before posting.
    https://wordcounter.net/character-count

    I need a blurb about the Polish Arabian, the Traditional Cob, and the Pura Raza Española (Andalusian).

    -To enter simply post your blurb below. You can write for one or multiple of the breeds. You can enter as many times per breed as you want.
    -I will only be picking one winner per breed across all three servers. (3 winners total) Winners will be picked Thursday morning and will receive 5 BC tokens to unlock a new breed characteristic of their choice. Here are some prior examples to help you understand what I am looking for.

    "The Saddlebred has a well-proportioned and muscular body with a deep chest, strong shoulders, a long, arched neck, and refined straight or slightly concave profile. Their short back leads to a level croup with high set tail, and long and sloping pasterns give them an animated stride."

    "A beautiful combination of refinement and power, the modern Friesian is an ideal sport horse with warmblood-like movement. They have long legs and a high, noble head carriage with a calm and expressive eye. Their thick, wavy mane and tail and feathered pasterns add to their majestic bearing."

    "The Suffolk Punch has a powerful, arching neck; well-muscled, sloping shoulders; a short, wide back; and a muscular, broad croup. Legs are short and strong, with broad joints; sound, well-formed hooves; and minimal feathering on the fetlocks. They tend to be shorter but more massively built."


    Thanks so much for sharing your creativity and breed knowledge with me.

Lean and muscular bodies, with a sloping shoulder and powerful hindquarters that provide excellent balance and agility. Paired with their intelligence and trainability they excel in any discipline.

  • Polish Arabian - 41 words 250 characters

    The Polish Arabian is one of the six purebred Arabian bloodlines. This breed holds numerous characteristics to its name including, a high-set tail, arched neck and a refined head and legs. Polish Arabians are also known for their flowy, smooth gaits.
  • Andalusian 214 charactes.
    Andalusian. Just the name conjures up images of beauty and elegance. With a noble appearance, natural athleticism, and kind and gentle temperament, it's no wonder that many refer to the PRE as "the horse of kings".
  • Polish Arabs have a stocky powerful build, a delicate head and an extravagantly arched tail. Sadly, twice in the 20th century, over 80% were killed in military conflicts. Now three state-sponsored Polish studs are repopulating this intelligent and eager to please breed.

  • Here at the ones I am liking best so far on the three servers.

    Polish Arabian
    A sub-type of Arabian Horse, the Polish Arabian was specifically selected for stamina and performance. These horses tend to be on the shorter side, with strong bone and a straighter profile, while still maintaining the traditional features of an Arabian Horse.

    Pura Raza Española
    The Andalusian or PRE horse stands out in history in many baroque paintings. Known for a strong arched neck, short round back and densely muscled hindquarters with an abundantly full mane and tail. They are typically kind, energetic, and courageous with a dynamic mind and body for many disciplines.

    Traditional Cob
    Traditional Cob is characterized by thick feathering on its legs and a full mane and tail. A "sweet" head with a neck that is strong, muscular, and of medium length; rounded withers; a thick short back; a broad, deep chest; and strong hindquarters. They're versatile, intelligent and well-mannered.

    Sorry not currently taking any request for egg/straw/horse sales. Everything I have for sale is already listed.
  • those are very good, so you just want a standard type description. I will remember that for the next time.
