Colour me surprised

After a couple of days of average nests and traits not going where I wanted them to, I woke up to find this...

My first savanna roo, ugly little blighter, but I hope he regresses to give me a zulu or two :D

I nearly passed out!
I logged in to be told one of my plots of land was closing...in 2HRS!! Ignored all the greenspeak telling me I had nests and rushed off to find a new home for some of my roos, when I got home (where the good stuff is) finally I'm rewarded with a Musimo! click the next nest, Western Desert! next one Kimodo!
After having been stuck at Terracotta for a while I bred a Tribal a few weeks back, she and her offspring have swung the door wide open!

Pharoah Sibling ...

I have a sibling to a Pharoah. Not sure what to do with it. My sister has the Pharoah paired up at the moment. I was going to try and take that offspring and breed it to my roo ( Pharoah sibling ) .. Is this a good idea? Would it give me a chance at having a Pharoah.

I also have am Emp, that is a Congo decendant ... no idea what to do with that either. Any Suggestions? As I am still lost on coats. I have the traits thing down and adding traits to coats ... Just no luck with coats.

I've seen to have hit a brick wall all of a sudden to where I can't get past Zulu's and Terracotta's. I figured to upcoat was to mix Zulu + Terra = Surprise, but instead more of the same of both (I like both of these coats as well). Just recently I gave a friend a Jubilee and she paired it with a Painted and ended up getting a Western Desert. Fluke or not, that was still better than the results I was getting, mind you this was her first reaching the Savanna species while I've been there for a while. Am I doing something wrong to get only the 2 lowest coats of the Savanna species?

Any ideas?

So I was looking at my two nest I have here. I was wanting to put this chest fluff with this zulu..obviously..to get a fluffy zulu..but do you think the fawns fluff is strong enough to at least guarentee one or two babes with fluff? :3 ideas?

Just askin'! Or am I to assume males can now parthenogenetically reproduce? I'm getting maybe 1 female for every 10 nests lately, lately being like the last month.

In all seriousness, does anyone have any ideas on whether or not something's affecting this gender bias in many people I've talked to? Seems most have this type of lopsidedness to one gender or the other. Sadly I only raise 0's so it limits who I can trade with to overcome this deficiency.

How To Get TRAITS?

I know - it's a little bit vague!

But I don't know how.

Sure, I've had some short tail and up ear, either from starter or bought, mostly bought! And then sometimes it pops up in roos I didn't know it was in.

And now I'm able to get some other traits cheaply if I buy a live roo sometimes.

But how do I get traits into the roo I want it on?

Let's say I'd like a painted long mane...or bed head. Would be cute!

Or a feline long mane azure...Just random examples.

How do you do it?? Exactly??

Thanks!!

Hey, I recently snagged this bad boy for cheap, and I wanna try my darndest to pull out the coats in his background. He has Kabuki and Painted Parents, azure and azure os grandparents as well as a bunch of Jubilee.

I was wondering what the best type of coat or background to breed it with might be, before trying to backbreed it. I have a limited amount of roos, I was thinking about maybe trying to throw in some traits while I was at it.
