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!

Question unrelated to NIBers actually does the horse you have in your profile pic have Arabian in its lines? Just curious. I need to update my profile picture but I love the tongue sticking out since it totally displays my horses attitude towards most things in life hehe. She is about three years older now so it's time for another candid. default smiley (lol)

NIB Morgan Breeders,
.
I have my first foundation Morgan stallion fully BULPed and bolded and ready to breed. Will be doing his maiden breedings to the first 2 foundation mares fully BULPed and bolded. Hope to have fantastic results. Get in early for 200e covering costs -- after he has proved himself a good sire his price will go up (although I always offer 50% discount on fees to NIB breeders -- mares must meet certain requirements, 100% Morgan, 100 BLUP, fully bolded).
.
Get in early for low covering costs from potentially great sire.

Me either, my sister tried to sell her gelding and she had a total of one person who actually came out to look at him. She did have a few that offered to just send her a check if she would ship him to them. She of course declined because she's not that gullible.

I would want them to come out and look at any horse I was selling before I sold it so I know they aren't meat packers coming to take my babies away.

So scary.

Well it is a scam when they say they are sending a check in the mail. The check usually bounces and then YOU get penalized for it default smiley (li)

Did someone say they had a really nice EC that gave .1 for the lesson gain? Wondering if I could get a box. If anyone has something over .095 from the lesson gain please pm me.

Nah, lots of us saying we were after .1% lesson gains though default smiley ;). I wouldn't place a 351.2 GP foundy in anything under .098% myself though default smiley :$

I can't never get an EC better than the ones that payout 21e. How much skill do though give? The only other option I have is to improve my own EC to that level default smiley :(

21e I believe is .096% skills. 22e is .098 and 23e is .099. 25e is .1% (I believe)

I was just reading over the last few posts (okay, about the last few hundred) and now my head is spinning over the 1st, 2nd generation business....bear with me, math is not my strong suit...


....so...is it even worth training and breeding (I don't breed until 100 BLUP -- it IS possible, I BLUPped my first foundie mare despite not knowing what the heck I was doing) the 1st generation-ers?

Mind you, these are 1st generation from non-BLUP-ped parents (*sigh* -- the eager beavers of the newbie set -- she says as if she's been playing here for years default smiley ;)). In a fit of enthusiasm I bought up a few (admits to feeling sorry for the forgotten souls) with grand plans. Now I'm not so sure....getting a headache from trying to guess the GP gain from these unfortunates....Oh dear, what was I thinking?

I breed NIB newfies, btw...if that makes a difference. If anyone can be bothered..they're under the Fingal's Cave tab on my page....

default smiley :-))

If anyone sees me in the auctions, beat me off with a stick....default smiley ;)

Rowen, thankyou for looking at my mare for me. now i can relax.default smiley (y)default smiley :)
Wild North,

I have some First Generation Arabians that don't have whose parents weren't fully BLUPPED despite my efforts to get them there. I think if you can get them to 100 that's awesome and you should do it before you breed. But if you get a stubborn Foundation who just won't win any wins and isn't doing well I have bred them without being fully blupped and the foals turn out great. I only do that as a last resort though if I am getting close to 25 years and the mare just refuses to cooperate.

I would definitely give your first gens a try and see where they take you default smiley :)

Thanks Rowen!! I quite enjoy the challenge of the BLUP so I'll give it a go.....some of the ones I bought were older and had little training so I've got a bit of catching up to do...but that's all part of the fun (for me, anyway) default smiley ;)

default smiley :-))
Wild North,

As far as I'm concerned I prefer if they have little to no training when I start with them. They tend to do better that way, I have a few that were totally trained and the rides are done so now it's like pulling teeth to get them to get any wins in the competitions. Some of my horses aren't getting finished until they are just about ready to retire default smiley (lol). So I definitely know where you're coming from.

Good luck and may the howrse be with you default smiley ;)
