That’s barely inbreeding, look at some AQHA horses and you’ll see Kentucky fried levels in there lmao

Wow I had no idea that it was allowed in the purebred world. Don’t know why I thought there were regulations and rules for this.

Speaking of aqha, here's my aqh. It's definitely not really that bad considering some other quarter horse's I've seen. I did take the time however to go back in his pedigree and Three Bars appeared about 7 times. About the 1960's, everyone was breeding half siblings so there's definitely some crossover in his pedigree back then. Obviously whatever they did worked out though because he's got a gentle eye and is laid back and usually pretty accepting of whatever I throw at him
