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.

Okay cool thank you!

Cool, going to try now!
I'm so happy with this girl. When she's all finished she'll have 5 skills over 1000 and she'll just blow the Trakehner speed board away with 1428.57 skill points.

Been breeding purebreds with high GP on howrse for years (on the UK server back before I closed that account and migrated here), and never even considered crossbreeding! Gah, wish I had sooner! I'm definitely hoping to give it a go.

I'm hoping to make some that anialate Reining competitions (western). I have a purebred arab with high GP and skills, her two highest are dressage and stamina. What would you guys breeding with, or have you had luck with? Or do you think there is an even better cross (not involving arabian horses) that might be worth a try?

Thanks! default smiley :d

On another note; I LOVE the idea of making a friendly, get-to-know-eachother team for crossbreeding when I upgrade to a VIP account in the next few months default smiley 8-)


I know Haflingers, Irish Hunters, and Lippizans all have the skills used in reining as their top 3. I'd maybe start with one of those to your arab to bring up that gallop skill, or just start with a couple of those and add in your arab to bring up stamina and dressage higher. You *might* need a generation or two to get that jump down out of the top 3, but I haven't crossed with arabs much so I'm not sure default smiley :p

I breed Haflingers and they do decently in reigning Prix, I came in the 600s with my recent skiller. He has 6790.35 skills vs 8190.74 of the winner. Haffie's gallop is quite week so you could do a Haffie crossed with something with good gallop? Just a suggestion.

Also, I produced this little filly, who I am quite pleased with. Thinking of doing a good gallop 50/50 to breed her with.

Looks amazing! My messages have been really reigning focused, but it has the perfect skill set for reigning XD

That team has 20 members already. Isn't that the limit? Are there other teams with space left? I'd like to join one.

Also, in a four way even cross, which grandparent's breed will the foal be? I thought it was sire's dam, but This makes me wonder. Does it vary?

She's so nice sherwood. I'm drooling. I can't wait to really get back in the swing of things and be serious like I once was. I remember my rankings days, I still have all of the horses that made it there, if I remember right.
