A while back, I hosted the first Foal Swap ever. I collected names of people interested, put everybody in a hat. I put each member in the hat as to how many foals they wanted to swap (I believe we did up to 4 total foals, only 2 allowed per category)… And drew names for members. They then gifted the foal(s) over the following month. It was a really unique, quick, and fun way to get some really fun new stuff!

Would anybody like to do it again?

Here is from the original Foal Swap:
————————————————
I'm thinking about creating a little "game" so to speak. It seems most of us love the idea of being gifted. Especially really exciting gifts! And we all seem to like to gift!!

We can all use this public room for ease of swapping!!
(Will post link here)

So I'm thinking about next season having a Foal Swap! Im going to break it into two categories.

BREEDING STOCK
1. Foal must be evenly bred by generation (foundation x foundation, g2 x g2, g3 x g3, etc).
2. Foal must be sent through genetic testing, breeding advice (SBA preferred but not everybody has this), and performance testing.
3. NEW ADDITION!!!! Closed genes totally 100% ok if you both own the gene!!

WHITE ELEPHANT
We'll call this the "other" category. With this category, you donate a foal of your choice. It could be a super expensive foal, or a complete dud. A show pony. Something with unique genes. Something that passed SBA that doesn't fit into your program. Bootstrap foal. OR a complete mystery foal - something straight out of the pasture! Altered closed genes accepted here!

You must enter a foal to receive a foal in this swap! You can enter up to 4 foals total, and up to 2 in each category.

DEADLINE TO ENTER: (To Be Established)!!!

By (Date To Be Established), I will give you the Name & ID of someone within the category you entered. That is who you will be gifting the foal to. I'm also playing along and throwing in 2 foals from each category. :)
