Mane shape genetics were introduced in February 2018.

While mane shape genetics are nowhere near as detailed as base genetics when it comes to breeding, a mane shape's fails might just convince you to choose one shape over another.

If you want to ensure that a mane colour and mane shape passes from a lion, the Ochre Saltlick item will guarantee that all cubs produced in a lion's immediate litter will inherit their mane colour and mane shape, so long as the item is given to them before the breeding takes place.

Ochre Saltlick
Use
Ochre Saltlick will guarantee your chosen lion passing their mane colour and mane shape in their immediate next litter.
Flavour Text When Used
Yarrrr, salty lions! Dem lion loins will produce some nice-maned cubs!
How to Get
Purchase from the Prophet Shop for 100 JB in September's event.
Rare drop in Celestial Explore in July.
Notes
* Ochre Saltlick affects the whole litter, and it must be used before breeding.
* If you use an Ochre Saltlick on both parents, the mother's item will be used and the father's will remain unused, carrying on the effect onto his next breeding.

Please keep in mind when viewing this page that the headshots next to the main lion art display what that mane shape can pass and "fail" to. Each mane shape can also pass naturally onto cubs if one of the parents has that mane shape.

For a quick view at what two different mane shapes can produce when bred to each other, check out the Mane Shape Outcome Viewer at the bottom of this page!

Combo  

So far, there is only one mane shape that can be bred from a combination of different mane shapes: Royal.

Combo manes require factor manes to be bred together in order to have a chance to obtain a lion with that specific combo mane. If you already have a lion with that combo mane, it can pass down onto cubs normally like any other mane, without further restrictions.

Explanation: You can breed the Royal mane by breeding a Barbary-maned parent with a Sideburn-maned parent, or by breeding a Barbary- or Sideburn-maned parent with a Hellraiser-, Thick- or Tufted-maned parent. Royal mane can also pass naturally from a parent with that mane shape without extra conditions.
