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 incredibly happy with my newest cross. His name is Cinnamon Roll. He is a a Haflinger Fjord Appaloosa.


He's cute!

I bred a 1700 skill KWPN this morningdefault smiley (8) She'll probably be used for crosses once I have the aging points to work on her!

Thank you. After doing this cross I realized I REALLY love Fjords default smiley (lol) and I have no idea why.
Maybe after I complete my Haflinger project (breeding Haflingers with all other breeds), I will start a Fjord project default smiley :) Really want to do a Fjord/Arabian default smiley :o


I have done Aussie/ fjord crosses they make great jumpers.

Any suggestions on Viola though? I don't even know whether to go Classical or Western with her comps-

For Western you could do decently well in low level cutting, WP, or reining. For classical you could go low-level trot or XC, maybe gallop after everything's bolded.

Thanks! I think I will try and get the 20 blup comps in trot, then experiment once she's skilled and see where she's strong at.

My new Shagya cross won a show jumping rosette by accident default smiley (lol)


Such a stunning horse! It almost inspires me to do a cross, but I can't be bothered lol

Wow, great job! She's not even fully done yet, either.



The line started with a PSH x Marwari, and then it was bred to a pure PSH over multiple generations.

Could have been more Marwari in there too, but it was bred out by the PSH.

Quick question, since I am used to doing 50/50 breeds.

If I was to breed my Paso x Standbred with a Tennessee x Paso, what would the foal be?

Yes! That didn't occur to me until you said it. default smiley (lol) I actually quite like Frozen now that all the hype's died down, I'm a sucker for Disney movies.

Did another Trake cross. Since they're so available to me it's a bit inevitable some of their blood will spill over into my crosses XD Funny thing happened, though.

The father of this horse has some Quarter Horse in him, but the baby doesn't. It's only technically a 4-breed cross, so it's not a question of room. Maybe the Quarter Horse is just insignificant it doesn't count anymore?
