It's about time the NIB breeders had their own corner of the world default smiley ;)

Curious about NIB horses? Want to know what a NIB horse is? You've come to the right place!

What is this topic for? NIB enthusiasts to find each other and help one another progress in their respective games.
Otherwise, you may use this topic to help others learn about NIBs, share your experience, and find friends that breed NIBs default smiley :)

Please do not use this topic for advertising horses for sale.

The NIB FAQ:

What is a NIB horse?
A NIB horse is a horse that is not inbred; every horse in its pedigree appears only once (with the exception of Ouranos and Gaia). Horses with "Horse Disappeared" in their pedigree are generally not accepted by NIB breeders unless the horses in question were bought before the horses disappeared and have verifiable pedigrees.

Are there green star NIB horses?
These horses have lower GP than green stars and other top horses, as not inbreeding limits the breeding availability and is slower to progress than breeding brothers to sisters and so forth.
**Misabel edit: The first Green star NIB horse was created on February 21, 2011 - a 6th generation Connemara pony with a star in stamina. He was the end result of a lot of hard work and effort, but now that some dedicated breeders have shown it can be done, we all have something to shoot for!

Are NIB horses considered better than green stars or inbred horses?
Goodness, no! Nobody here is attempting to make that claim. Just like the Zero GP horses, these players choose to play the game in their own challenging way.

How can I get involved with NIB breeding?
It's simple! Start by purchasing a few foundation horses, or horses whose pedigrees can be tracked down and verified as non-inbred. Then carefully breed them to create foals with good GP's and skills that are not inbred!

Yes. Currently Quarter Horses is my main focus. I would love to do Quarter Ponies but that seems almost impossible. default smiley :s
By Retired breeder, 2nd April 2018 21:40:42
I bred my first NIB horse today, this pretty little filly once she's BLUPed would anyone on here have a first generation Appaloosa stud I could breed her with?
By Storms Ransome, 2nd April 2018 21:50:51


I do from the original NIB projects but not from any horses with rolling gp, yet.

I don't have any QHs besides my black and white project, but if I come across any cheap ones in the sales, I'll remember to pick them up for you.

Indeed it does great to see default smiley ^)

@madisonroses nice one!
I don't have any rolling gain foundies blupped yet either I'm afraid.

I had thought about starting a NIB project with them. But I seriously need to NOT go there. Got plenty already. But like Storms Ransome I'll keep a look out for cheap ones in sale.

I took on a few Rolling Gp projects myself, just to keep in the game should the 350 Foundation horses ever run out in the sales, and unfortunately, I know they will :/ But I love your response, Asfridur. It made me laugh!

I just counted and I've got 220+ original Appaloosa Foundation horses default smiley :d And my friend has 100+ more for me too. Haha. I'm excited to know that my days of doing original NIB projects with the Appaloosas aren't over!

I am starting a rolling GP Quarab project.

@Magdie, I'm excited for you! default smiley :d

That is awesome - a fellow old GP hoarder and lover default smiley (7)
You should be able to get quite a few generations with those. Like 8 generations!!

@The Novice I tried to see if I could grab some in auctions, but stopped bidding once they went over 35k +.
You might be able to get lucky finding some there though. It's worth a try to keep checking those.

yea. i snagged a few more from direct sales, but now im broke default smiley xd maybe i'll sell my GA coat collection
By Storms Ransome, 4th April 2018 17:06:43


It can bite really hard when you're starting a new NIB project because you have to fork out the E to get started. default smiley (lol). I'm fortunate because I got my Appy project before all the prices shot through the roof due to demand and the limited supply of old Foundations circulating from player to player who are selling them.
