Finally a post just for us cross breeders. The purpose of this topic is for cross breeders to have a place to discuss their crossbreeding programs and to share crossbreeding secrets and advice with others who may be interested in giving crossbreeding a try. Feel free to talk about your crossbreeding programs and your achievements and failures in crossbreeding.
Please remember to follow the rules of the forum and be informative and helpful. default smiley :-))

*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*

Reminder to all.

Please do not advertise sales or items wanted in this topic. I can turn a blind eye to the covers being offered (as long as they are not blatant advertisements) because we are, after all, trying to help each other progress and there is no filter on public covers for searching for crosses, but items sales and items wanted do not belong in any of the public forums and we have a sales forum for horse sales so please, lets keep our topic clean of the ads.

Thanks everyone

There are reasons for rules and everyone is expected to follow them. There will be no posting of advertisements in this topic and everyone is expected to be respectful. Any disrespect towards fellow players or moderators will not be tolerated. Anyone posting advertisements will receive a forum ban without prior warning. If breaking of rules continues to take place in this topic I will delete it.

Thank you

If anyone has personal issues with another player, or needs something back from another player(items/passes), other than covers/fills-please take it to private pms...anymore posting here will mean an instant forum ban without a warning.

A reminder that this is not the place for trading/buying/selling BMI, horses or advertising or asking for someone to train your horse.
If any of these things occur, you will be forum banned without prior warning.

Hello! I was looking to start cross breeding. Im not sure which breeds, which parent should be wich breed, etc. I have no expirience with cross breeding. I would like a good dressage horse that will get tons of skills. Any tips? Detail would be appreciated!
By Retired breeder, 30th May 2010 14:52:05
Well first you should know that with a 50/50 cross were you breed two purebred horses of different breeds, the foal will look like the fathers breed. I here that IH/friesian make good dressage horses and excellant EC boosters. My friend itunes9.0 breeds them and they reach close to or over 300 dressage. In fact, my filly, Dressy Lady, in my Simply Crossed tab, is one of his.
By Retired breeder, 30th May 2010 14:54:05
Ok thanks! And when you breed two purebreds together, you get a 50/50. What kind of cross would you breed to that one?
By Retired breeder, 30th May 2010 15:03:20
Any you like. Some people breed to another 50/50, or back to a purebred or to any other cross they think will go well. It doesn't matter. It is all about what you want to get out of the foal.
By Retired breeder, 30th May 2010 15:06:04
Thanks so much! And does it matter which breed is the mother and which is the father? LIke will a IH mare/fresian stally produce better/worse foal than a fresian mare/IH stally
By Retired breeder, 30th May 2010 15:14:57
IH/friesian is fab cross, my stally made no.1 friesian on elite boards. Think he's no5 or something now. He helps to hold my 24e lessons up too, his dressage is 318.20. If your wanting high skills you would be better off with ih mother as they are much higher than friesians gp wise
By Retired breeder, 30th May 2010 15:15:51
I meant if your wanting high gp for friesian breed not skills duh
Thanks for the tip. I might try.

Beach: Where you talking to me?
Yeah. Sorry Cherokee. I spend too much money.

I discovered an ancient cross (from 2008) in my stalk. He's almost 100 BLUP, and I'm selling him.
