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.

Can someone help?I seem to be ignored?
By Retired breeder, 16th March 2016 17:53:44

Something with a good trot or speed, it's severely lacking in those areas.

@~~4 Winds Arabian~~
I was thinking maybe about 4,500e for a covering from, seems like a reasonable price for his skills and GP.
Hyrim - what are you wanting the foal to turn out like?

@ Liza, I would definitely like to breed him with one of my mares, I just need to figure out which one. Hmmmm...

@Liza I don`t want an allrounder but if it will help me improve other skills then yes.



I want to improve stamina, speed and dressage and reduce jumping. I figured I could add another breed to the mix like arab? But then I need something high in GP.
By Retired breeder, 16th March 2016 18:33:25
No problem Megawifey. Anyone who wants a covering just send me a PM with the mare's name so I can keep a note of it.
By Retired breeder, 16th March 2016 18:35:33
@Hyrim Maybe try an Appy?
Working on training Quick Silver right now. Got two skills bolded and waiting for comps to catch up before I go any further. He is not winning as easily as his mother, but I think that is do to his defult breed of GV and the way I chose to BLUP him... might have to switch up tactics with this one...

Ah, the joys of running out of aging points. Got him to 9 years 6 months, but ran out. Hopefully be fully BLUP'd by tomorrow.


If you want to reduce jump, then don't do Arab as that's their third top skill. Improve stamina, speed and dressage with a Quarter Pony, maybe?

Alright, scraped together a few more APs. He is already to start covering.
Hyrim - maybe criollo? They are cutting horses. Stamina, speed and dressage are the skills required for cutting

@Liza possibility.

@MoonRider1691 I was think connemara since they are the same in the top three.

@Megawifey I could but It already has criollo but they've done well so I'll see what they're like for GP.
Now, do I use my APs to sell my new foal, or do I save them to make sure Quick Silver is finished training... I don't think I have enough for both. I might have to start AP farming... :/

I would take all breeds you have in mind, find the best stud for each and compare which will give you the best GP gain, boost in S, S, and D and also lower J the most. That's how I pick and choose.

That's a far better way than I choose, @Megawifey. I just random decide on a breed and go for the Highest GP default smiley xd Whatever suits my mood on the day.
By Retired breeder, 16th March 2016 20:01:59
@Megawifey thats what I'll do then. Sometimes the breed puts me off but I want GP gain atm.

Lipizzan or Lusitano for the first part.
By Retired breeder, 16th March 2016 20:29:14
@Chicken Nugget, good choice!
By Retired breeder, 16th March 2016 20:40:11

Thank you! I hope to have a good dressage horse by the end of this but if not oh well. default smiley (lol)

I unintentionally made one of my horse's foal a good show jumper. I just bred her with a random horse while AP farming and I got this beauty! I really like him. Not sure if he'll make any rankings but I promoted him from my AP farm and added my affix onto him default smiley :-))


default smiley (lol) maybe I'm too picky
