Hmm, correct subforum, perhaps?

Anyway.

YO! How does Royal mane passing work? I read on wiki that it "can also be passed down from a Royal-maned parent when bred to another Royal-maned parent, or when bred to one of its factor mane shapes" but, I'd been noticing that it was passing relatively frequently for me, so I decided to look at my own Royal maned queen's bred cubs.

Here are some links of cubs who inherited my queen's Royal mane shape, but whose mother was not a factor (Barbary, Hellraiser, Sideburn, Thick, or Tufted):

Yup. I looked through allll 358 of Cosmic's cubs to get that NOICE data I don't expect anyone to click on every link (because omg) but there they are in case you wanna verify.

Also, I will note there were also plenty of Thick, Hellraiser, Barbary, and Sideburn mothers! Just didn't care to record em :p I don't breed to a lot of Tufted lionesses, so not much data on those specifically I'm afraid.

The conclusion I'm drawing is that Royal is actually able to be bred from Royal x any parent despite what the wiki says. (me, feeling all smart and stuff when it's probably been confirmed by admins years ago-)
