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.

That's not too bad! Are you doing covers from your 10* horses?
Sure- I am not sure what to charge for a covering though...

I have a cross, 100 BLUP mare named Dryad that I'm fond of. I've bred a lot of crosses before though I don't breed them now. How is everyones crosses going? It's been months and months since I've really looked into crosses. I'm tempted to breed them again. I loved cross breeding, but I didn't have the time to BLUP them. Instead I do 0 GP. One line is cross 0GP shetlands though.

I don't have a mare at the moment, but I was just wondering if you do. Well I won't pay over 1500e. I'm stuck on the fact that anything more than that for a cover is just stupid. They shouldn't have bumped it up. If you want more, then don't worry about it default smiley (lol)

Got a Mar filly out of my TB/Mar siblings. So pleased with the results. Think what I'm gonna do is breed my best purebred Mar to the best PSH available and then cross the two foals for a Mar/TB/PSH cross. Then I'm crossing the siblings back and forth with each other to lock in the Mar-dominance and raise GP/skills.

Meanwhile I'm gonna go test my best Mar mare with my Lusi/Fry stud....

Does anyone have a pure Arab mare with around 1330 GP I could borrow to make a foal?
By Retired breeder, 19th November 2011 02:33:41
Aaaand here's the Lusi/Fry/TB/Mar test foal. I think what I'm gonna do is breed my Lusi/Fry mare to a Fry stud and then cross THAT foal with my TB/Mar.
By Retired breeder, 19th November 2011 02:50:27
Or better yet, an IH/Arab cross?
Hey what horse is the best at dressage? Cause I am tryin to breed a super good dressage comp. horse cross.

Last, I have a mare just under 1330 you could have, my mare above that is one I use for Grand Prix, so I am loathe to part with her, even for 10 days.

The one is ! Swimming at 1329.06 GP on my 100 BLUP tab, and the other is Two Doors Down at 1338.72 GP in my Grand Prix, both are Arab. I might be willing to breed an affixless foal from Doors, if you provide any Tears you wish to use.

And for top in dressage, #1 dressage horse is a Fry, #2 is a Lusi, and the top ten pretty much alternates between the two. Either is good for adding a shot of dressage, and trot into your lines.
By Retired breeder, 19th November 2011 03:23:39
Rorhi, you wouldn't have to part with her. PM me for details.
Im so happy, I bred a 10* in all skills!! She is soooooo close to having 200 in each skill, she missed one by less then 1 point and another by only 3!! c:

Oh my gosh I *love* that last foal you posted Fifth! If I had passes kicking around, I'd totally want a copy of that. default smiley (lol)

I'm so happy to see this guy is still number one in lusti stamina. I thought for sure he wouldn't be there long.
By Retired breeder, 19th November 2011 05:25:48
@best thanks! That skill set always turns up whenever I cross horses that have Lusis and Mars in them. Really weird. Hoping that when I try it out with a Fry/Lusi and a TB/Mar I get something with higher trot.
By Retired breeder, 19th November 2011 05:31:20
I can't wait to see that mix! Are you doing the TB/Mar right now?
By Retired breeder, 19th November 2011 05:35:16
Just bred some next gen Mar/TB foals. She's the one with the highest GP, default smiley :d
Does anyone have advice for BLUPping an arab/lusitano? The horse I want to BLUp is this one

@Rayday
I'ld try training in only speed and dressage and try to get the 20 wins in showjumping. Thats what I ddi for my Arabian/lusitano. When you dont win as much in jumping and you still need your 20 wins, I do trot rides and ever XC and gallop/trot races.
