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.

Yes. Sire's second breed. Usually, to get the right breed on the bottom (I'll use my Trakes as an example), you want to use a mare of the breed you want dominant. For the Trakes, I was able to have someone on the Trake team breed the most recent mare BLUP to the highest public Selle stud (resulting in the foals' sire). That resulted in Selle on top, Trake on bottom in genetics, so when crossed to the Appy/Gypsy mare, successfully threw Trake foals. However, there are occasions (for example, the majority of my Noko/Stangs, Noko.Appies) where the dominant breed, rather than the recessive mare's breed, ends up as the second listed breed. In that case, you either have to try another stud, mare, or both.

What's a good cross combination for stamina improvement? I've reached 7300 GP so I'm not too concerned about gaining. I'm working with 50/50 Arab-Gypsies but I'd like to add in more breeds as their stam isn't improving as quickly as I'd like

If you check the rankings, Gypsies have the highest stamina GP on the game, so if you're already using a Gypsy then you won't find a breed with higher stamina. Arabians are second best stamina, with Tekes third I think.

redfox - Selles are really good jumpers. I mixed a Selle/Crip (75% Selle/25% Crio) and my mix has won 2 rosettes currently. I haven't entered her in any more yet. So probably a Selle and another breed that has jumping as one of the top three skills would be good.

KWPN x Selles are great...If the foal comes out as a KWPN.

If it comes out a selle then breed only comps won't be winnable.

Hmmm, Selle/Crio/KPWN/Shetland? Just naming some jump breeds here, but I may actually do this mix. Any one have an available covering? Selle/Crio preferably?

My Selle/Crio stud isn't BLUPed yet, but I can try to finish up my newest KWPN/Crio if you want?
I use all studs and mares as the basis for my crossbreeds (aka grades). I find that using parents of non-mixed lineage will give me higher skill offspring. I am currently trying to develop a great gallop racer using my original horse (Snoopy, if anyone cares to look), breeding to an Appaloosa mare (Shadow of Night), whom I got from a retired breeder years ago.

Does anyone have suggestions for a high-demand cross? I'm looking to expand my business in breeding, and I like to use my own in-house studs.

PM me with information!

Many thanks in advance,

Here is the Crio/KWPN stud. Or, given a day or two, I do have this Selle/Crio stud.
Wow when you get 20 wins all in one day (I've honestly never had this happen before)!! Hopefully everyone who (like me) lives in USA and celebrates Thanksgiving had a good one!

Ooo I like that crio/selle KR! He looks fun lol

Him and his twin (to start my Crio/Selle lines and my Crio/Selle/KWPN lines) were both really easy to get wins for. Really liking the cross.

He's purebred, but if anyone wants covers of this stallion he's up for 7500e
