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.

@Horselover, decent GP for a Shagya in my opinion.

@ Horselover I think he is good for us to start with. I am going to start working on my horse soon. The best thing about the Shagyas is that because everything is so slow is that we do not need to bling the horses out to make the rankings.

@rosey exactly. If you can breed a horse in the 1,000GP range we can probably breed them together and get a decent horse.
Horselover; Oh! 50% Shaggy too! Cross that bad boy with a 4-way monster and you may have the #1 on your hands. default smiley ;)

Okay, I have seriously got to stop boarding my Grand Prix money earners in my EC. My boarders are using enough carrots as it is!

I'm off to buy a few horses for crossbreeding now, but I shall return! *strikes valiant pose*

@Twi that's the plan! default smiley :k I can't wait to create chaos. I'll end up knocking the horse I bred right out of 5th place! default smiley xd

Maybe I should just make these my constant breed? That or I'm going to do Holstieners or Nokotas. Thoughts?

I think we will be able to kill the rankings in one day if we really try. And by really try I mean breed and BLUP.
By Retired breeder, 22nd February 2012 00:08:32
@rosey we just need to get the horses going so we can get higher GP. I wish I wasn't out of exchanges already. I need more BM items.
Horselover; You could try to do what HB and I did. We bred a 4-way and a 5-way and did some complicated stuff I don't remember in the breeding line and bred the Trakes and crossed them back and--bam!--huge GP jump. default smiley :p [url=www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=23090507]Look into his family line.[/url]

@Horselover I think that is what we are going to need to do that. It is the best way although I we will need to work fast. If anybody gets a wind other than the people on this forum they will beat us to it.

@Thunder the GP is a little low but he's a good place to start.

@Twi that was a crazy jump in GP!

Ok, if my Shagya could be fully BLUPed in a few days I could do the 4 way cross like Twi said and get a massive GP jump. default smiley :o rosey do you know what this means?!
Yeah...I should prolly keep my mouth shut too... default smiley xd Se le escapo el secreto... (my Spanish is bad, but that should be along the lines of he/she let the cat out of the bag lol)

Thunder; I love him! He's #1!

Horselover; I was! I think if y'all plan your Shaggys like that too, y'all could get a super Shaggy!

@Twi; I know, he's very cool. I love his family tree, it's quite amusing!

@Horselover; I agree, but like you said, you have to start somewhere.

Yeah everyone in the forum keep their mouths shut! As Twi said, default smiley (lol)

I'm super excited about this now! default smiley :-))
Thunder; My Spanish teacher said it doesn't translate word-for-word, but that's the basic meaning equivalent. default smiley (lol) Makes no sense to me.
