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.

I'm random. Spent the past hour making a long list of horse names, I'd say there's well over 100. I just enjoy things like that. If anyone wants a long list of names, I'll PM it to you, just ask.
I love my Paint! I'm so glad I decided to deck him out too! default smiley (l) Paints and Trakes...I love 'em. Hmm...how would a cross between the two come out? default smiley :o

I used to love Paints, I always had loads of them, but you don't see them about the sales with MA, so much anymore compared to when I was only 90 days.

Now *that*, Twilight, I'd be *very* interested in seeing!

I'll admit I have something of an obsession with Iberian horses, and Thoroughbreds, and Holsteiners… default smiley (lol) Hence my own crossbreeding! I'll admit, I'd be *very* interested to see a Paint/Trakehner cross, though.

Horsebabe, do you need a western or classical EC?
By Retired breeder, 12th February 2012 02:20:22
Would anyone like a long list of good horse names for your future crosses?
Fairy- Can I have a list? I'm not creative.

Wait a minute...does it even matter which kind of EC you board in? I thought a western horse had to be in a western centre, but then I just realised I have my western horse in my classical EC...duhh moment? default smiley (lol)
Scarred Winter; I think I'll do it. It'll be Paint dominant though since my Trakes are 24% Trake. default smiley (lol) Once I've got a couple Trake foals from Remember the Name, I'll ask my BP to breed her to a Paint. ^^

Fairydust; Any Paint fillers left?

@ Macaronie - Sure I'll PM you, I think It'd wreck this topic if I posted it here lol
By Retired breeder, 12th February 2012 02:23:13
Ooh, now I'm looking forward to seeing how that came out! Before I limited myself to breeding my favorite breeds, I had a few Trakehner/Iberian crosses -- very pretty, nice skills, too. But, I became a little more obsessed with my Holsteiners once they came out, and that sealed my fate. default smiley (lol) I'll admit, I'm a fan of Paint coats, so I'm very much looking forward to seeing this cross.

I've got a lot of those old 35* - 60* horses, I remember when I just got into the game everyone was talking about the 50* ranking Brumbies.
Scarred; Here's the Trake. I'd have loved to have seen your Trakes! default smiley (l)

Mac don't waste a dog on that horse. Put a cat on it if you want a skiller pet otherwise go with something else.

Think I'm going to come here more often. It's fun and friendly.

Oh and happy 1000th day Xellossnut! default smiley (l)

My, that is a nice horse! Actually, as I did produce them, here's a list of who's still standing:

This handsome gelding was a stallion when I sold him a long white back… Purebred Spanish Horse/Trakehner cross, very handsome boy! I can't quite recall what I named him, but he was one of mine.

Apparition even kept his name! Lusitano/Trakehner cross, very handsome stallion… Named him that before I sold him. Very fun crosses, I'll admit that.

I don't know, I'm not usually a huge breeder… My four core breeds… But sometimes I look a nice Trakehner and sigh. It would be interesting to maybe get back into them, but that's *another* breed, and I'm a bit of a stickler for breeding… Don't know of many breeders who specialize in five breeds, or six if you count Iberian warmbloods, but then again six is a favorite number… And many breeders of warmbloods IRL have Hanoverians, Hoslteiners, and several others, sometimes. I don't know… What do you think?

To breed Trakehners again, or not to breed Trakehners again, that *is* the question. default smiley (lol)
By Retired breeder, 12th February 2012 02:36:49
Well, I've now got this guy blupped and bolded, all thats left is to wait for a few passes to come in so I can get a cloud pack and skill him up for the grand prix default smiley xd
What do y'all think? default smiley :)
I wonder how a mix between these two would look.

her + him

Scarred; She'll be #1 after the update! default smiley (l)
I don't know what the Trakes were at in November as I started doing them in December. default smiley (lol) I brought them from 60* to 74*.
Well, hey, if you've got the time and wanna venture back into Trake breeding...lemme know! ^^

Criminal is almost finished. She'll be done by the morning I bet. Just have to finish bolding and she's all set! default smiley :d

Thanks! And he should once he's finished
Shall be the first 2000skiller that I've breed default smiley ^)
