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!

For FM Nasty the number afterwards should have been a 1 not a 0, always started generations with the number 1.

Having the generation number in front and the generationAL number in back, made it much easier. Otherwise the numbering system could get very complex. I've seen horses with numbers like 1.5.16.3.48.16, etc. Putting in the number for EACH generation in a horses background can get VERY long by the time you are at the 10th generation or so. And there is a limit to how big a name can get.

@Final Countdown, this is also the system I use. The ID tags are in the howrse's url: https://www.howrse.com/elevage/chevaux/cheval?id=19974494 The numbers here at the end are unique to that howrse.

I personally use google sheets to keep track of everything, including an equation to calculate all the things I need to do with each horse so I can glance and see how "complete" the howrse is before I breed them. I also back up/download the sheets every so often just in case. When I'm done with a horse, I move it to another breeding farm.

Does anyone have tips for bluping foundations that have already had their training bars full? I'm having the absolute worst time trying to win competitions with them, and would love to see them bluped. Messages are welcome! Thank you!

I want to sell a Camargue colt that has Ouranos and Gaia as its parents. He has a GP in the 4000's. Here's a link: https://www.howrse.com/elevage/chevaux/cheval?id=59992619
I'm not sure how much a horse like this can be sold for. If someone can give me an estimate or a link to somewhere where I can find this information, that would be great! (I have tried looking but no luck).
Thank you! default smiley :)

hey guys, i bidded on some Nokota foals named "Gaia" and "Ouranos" and there bred by Gaia and Ouranos. so do y'all think i could start NIB Breeding them ?
By Retired breeder, 9th November 2019 21:36:44
Hello I own to Nokota foals, named Gaia and Ouranos, do y'all think I could NIB them ?
By Retired breeder, 9th November 2019 21:52:26

Hey it's me (Dreamer12) I sold those foals <3 hey Buddy
By Twinjodi, 10th November 2019 03:22:58
@VivianHorseGirl, I could not find the foals that you had bid on as you haven't won them yet.

But if they are Ouranus x Gaia pairing they are the start of their "breed" so yes you can NIB them. If you breed them with another Ouranus x Gaia parent, you will have an offspring which would be a First Generation foal.

I was wondering the same. I was sad to see us go so far down in the event page. I kept thinking of asking the same lol. I've been working on the promo and adding things to some of my foundies. I'm being lazy because I REALLLLLLY don't want to even bother with comps right now so I'm just training some and figuring out who needs what and I'm redoing my system for my unnamed/no GA yet horses.
