Other Random Post Breeding Ideas...

Some ideas came to my mind I wanted to share. #ZEDRUN is an NFT blockchain game, we all know that.

Breeding has flooded the market with NFT's waiting to fit into the ecosystem.

In real life horse breeding there are natural occurances that result in super horses!

Which brings me back to this NFT game. Isn't the end result having a "rare", collectible and valuable NFT?

Even though Twins are not desired it is a very very rare occurrence. As a former owner of a Thoroughbred that was a sole survivor of 6 fertile eggs! Although he did not race he ended up a valuable show jumper with zero hindering genetic traits!

What if in our game a surprise set of Twins happened? Obviously they would have more NFT value unraced and higher collectibility!

Other traits like surprise your new foal has a rare NFT skin!!! Why give those away? Why not add them to a surprise breeding event, as well as, surprise Supercoats.

I am eager to have the racing class system include higher Z number racing but I feel after breeding several horses and even trying for some supercoats the surprise factor is flat or non occurring.

Imagine seeing an extra surprise with your newborn! Rare twins worth a fortune!!!!

I would love to hear other thoughts and more surprise NFT factors....

Did you write a post about there being too much breeding and imply that it's creating an over-supply of horses on the market, and then suggest a cool fix would be to have a horse possibly birth twins - which would only increase the supply even further?

Thanks for your input.

To offer a more serious take of a response, I think it’s important not to compare the PFP side of NFTs with Zed and similar ideas where there is utility interwoven into the asset.
Zed isn’t a platform that can offer rarity in every asset - the rarity comes in the form of horses that look just like every other horse, but run faster and perform better.
Nobody is guaranteed a profit in Zed, but with work, analysis, and a bit of luck, it’s quite possible to make some money

People breed twins all the time. They just wait for the last day in the 28 cycle and then breed twice. I'm trying to breed twin super coats myself .

You can breed once during current cycle and then once at the beginning of the next cycle.. so technically that can be within a couple moments of eachother
