* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: A recent Black Market item, Iris' Coat, will re-color a horse a random color of the rainbow (or even just "rainbow colored"). Players have a 50% chance of having a foal affected by Iris' Coat if their parents are bred with the item on hand. The dam (mother) must be 30 years old, too.

* Pegasus: They're common as the unicorns in the game, but unlike unicorns, you can only get a Pegasus by giving a horse the Black Market item called Medusa's Blood. In certain promotions, the game will ask you to remove the wings off a Pegasus, though unlike unicorns, you still have the chance of giving them wings again.

* Unicorn: You can breed unicorns together, but unless you have a Hestia's Gift, there is a 1 in 8 chance of getting a unicorn foal. Certain promotions will ask you to remove a unicorn's horn, but once you do that, you can't undo the change, and they become regular horses.

* YouAreNumber6: On Howrse, especially in the sales, many horses will be referred to by numbers instead of names. These numbers typically represent their genetic potential.

* RuleofThree: Donkeys and draft horses can only be bred 3 times (4 times if they are born while you have a Pegasus account). There seems to be a persistent habit among players to use up ''all'' 3 coverings the minute they become 2 years, 6 months (the age of sexual maturity). Coverings can be very expensive.
