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.

With all this western talk it makes my want to do a western comp horse. Really wish they had Spanish Mustangs on the game. They are killer at barrels, western pleasure, cutting, and really awsome trail horses.

How in the WORLD do you crossbreed?
By Retired breeder, 10th February 2012 04:39:42
Am I the only one who find cross breeding self explanatory? default smiley (lol)

You cross different breeds together. Simple as that.
You take a female of 1 horse breed and breed it to a male of a different horse breed and that leaves you with a horse that is half 1 breed and half another breed that has characteristics (skill wise) of both, but it will show his "breed" as the fathers breed. You then continue from there to get some very interesting/diverse crosses that are useful to use to specialize a horse such as to breed the horse to rank in their breed or to be very good at one skill/one type of competition.

my sister [starcather9] says that her mare Last Legend (used to be southerncomfort) is doing good, has blanketed the arab sj comps, and has 3 pages left to run with 15 wins and 2 seconds
we are going to bed now, nightdefault smiley :)

we have decided on the 'last' line...aka last legend, last kiss, last minit, last rites, last secret, last song etc default smiley ;)

Lol, no one could be that naive. I would hope default smiley :p

So I really want to do a QP cross. I want something unique though.
I have 8 more comps waiting to run and I need 4 more wins. Come on! You can do it girl, come on!

Ugh, I was hoping to pop out an IH/Mar and GV/Mar by update but this Marwari isn't getting his wins, default smiley (li)

I got nothing else to report. I've gotten so lazy that I've all but given up on most of my horses, default smiley (lol)
By Retired breeder, 10th February 2012 07:59:41
My GV, Argentum Astrum isn't picking wins either... he's got something like 3 wins default smiley :(
By Retired breeder, 10th February 2012 09:05:39
I dislike it immensely when the BGs' high GP BLUPpers prevent BLUPpers with lower GP from getting their 20 wins. I'm not talking about a difference of a few points. I'm talking about a difference of over 100 GP. Ridic. Thank goodness for trot comps.

Makes me want to crossbreed a proper Mar skiller to stomp the living daylights out of everyone in breed-only comps. Which I'm almost all set to do once I get a ZLB and take care of 6 pass horses.
Gah, i'm bad, i still havent finished fantasia. I really need a ec to put my crossie foalie into though so i can get on with my plan for a psh comp monsta!

Well here's a GV/Mar. I might cross her with a PB Arab to raise the GP or a Lusi to raise dressage/gallop before breeding her to an IH/Mar. I bred one already, but I'm gonna wait until tomorrow to see if there are better IH covers. If not, then I'm definitely breeding the GV girl to either an Arab or a Lusi. Or maybe an Arab/Lusi?
