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.

This is just me, but I would cross her with either another jumping breed (Morgans, KWPNs, Shetlands, Selle Français, and Austrailian ponies) or cross country breed (Akhal-Tekes, Barbs, Shayga Arabians, Canadian Horses, Connemaras, Gypsy Vanners, Arabians, Russian Dons).

So I've been experimenting with new breeds (I'm currently liking Curlies) and bred these two new babies.
(Excuse the obsession with the Throne of Glass series; that's where their names come from)

Chaol - Curly/Paint/Selle/Gypsy: 7180.54 GP
Rowan - Curly/Selle/Trake/Gypsy: 7286.12 GP

Both have the same father but different mothers. I quite like them actually. What do you all think of them?

Hello, does anybody know of an ideal horse/pony to cross with a shetland? Thanks!
depends on what you want. I bred the cross right above your post to be #1 shet elite, dressage and jump. Will be top 10 on almost everything

I applaud you fitting in just about the three most developed breeds in the game, and carefully in the shetland! default smiley ;) That's crossbreeding at it's finest! default smiley :)
why thank you. I kind of wish I was patient enough to get a top shetland cover, but I had a hard enough time getting shetland listed 2nd. I went through 3 mares and 5+ studs. He is almost done aging, would like to win a few rosettes on him. We will see.

I have a twin and a higher inborns baby that was a filly. If someone wants them for breeding

I would be interested.

Also, I was able to finish my two boys.

My Darkest Hours who is great at breed-only Western Pleasure and sometimes places first in the non-breed-only part of it. He is a 50/50 Gypsy Vanner/Friesian.

¿Donde esta mi gato? is great at breed-only Cross Country. He is a 50/50 KWPN/Friesian.

I plan on taking notes on these two as if I were going to cross them together and see what I get. I have a couple fillies with the same cross as Gato that I was thinking of breeding to Dark.

I'm totally new to crossbreeding, but I kinda want to "shadow" some people a bit. Anyone care to PM me and brag about your current projects? I want to hear all about it and everything you've tried, etc!
I breed mostly crossbreed Fjords, but I have a few other projects with Gypsy Vanners, Marwaris and Haflingers

What are specifically looking for on the spreadsheet? I have one made on my computer but I can't share it really.

Specifically those three in that order? Or any order?
Lusitanos have Dressage, gallop, and trot as the top three skills. A Lusi/QH would possible have the skill set you would want.
None have that specific order but here are some that I think could help. If you want ponies, let me know.

Curly: Stam/trot/speed
Freisian: Dressage/Trot/Stam
Hackney: Trot/Stam/Dressage
Hano: Jumping/Speed/Gallop
Holsteiner: Jump/Gallop/Dressage
Knabs: Dressage/Trot/Jump
Lipizzan: Dressage/Gallop/Speed
Marwari: Gallop/Stam/Speed
Paso: Trot/Speed/Dressage
QH: Gallop/Dressage/Speed
TWH: Trot/Stam/Dressage
TB: Gallop/Dressage/Speed
Trake: Gallop/Jump/Stam

Does anyone have any Gypsy crosses they can link so I can see the different skill sets that can come from them? I just bought a 8165 GP Gypsy filly and I'm trying to figure out what to breed her to when I blup her.

Star Spangled's Foals

GV x Akhal Teke (only 1y6months currently) Usually wins rosettes when bred with tears

GV x Selle x KWPN Crossing with a KWPN drastically brings the stamina down however increases the jump & dressage meaning you can enter mid-level XC comps with very frequent wins
