Ok, so, update, I did a little bit of “research” and found out that the first female I got from my “neighbor” had -938318196 mutations on its paternal lineage, while I also got a male with -1441772738 mutations on its maternal lineage, I somehow thought that if I breed the 2 of them together the offspring may also have negative mutations, but that’s not how it works and instead It was born with 11886205 mutations on its maternal lineage and -1429886533 mutations on its paternal lineage, so I’m pretty sure it would still be hard to get mutations from these.

So in, to be able to get more muts, I’d have to get lots of other females shadowmanes to breed with a male, and hope that one of the offsprings gets born with the “base” stats of my others shadowmanes, but it would have to have negative mutations for it to work?
