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.

Same thing as above, but with KWPN.
Stamina:884.88
Speed:1466.30
Dressage:2294.62
Gallop:1018.74
Trot:1577.44
Jumping:2026.67
Trot is still much higher than I'd like, but might do well in cross-country or Western Pleasure.
I'll have to do some thinking.

Well, after breeding it then letting it sit for over a month, my skiller is finally done.

Soldiers Intent

Not the prettiest one I've ever done but I really like how his top 3 skills evened out after I Beached for Gallop. And he'll be #1 Gallop Fjord tomorrow. Not sure if he'll place elsewhere, but we'll see.

(Although that last comp win needs to come through already...it's bugging me lol)

Does anyone have a Morab stallion I could get a cover from for my Morab mare? I want to start breeding them again.

Shagya/QH. I did one awhile back ago and she turned out lovely. Winter Underground is her name, if you want to view her. Under the Spark breeding farm.

I have another QH cross, Grayson Rose. Not exactly sure on his cross line but I know he was wonderful. My first Rosette winner.
Has anyone ever done a TB x Friesian cross?

@Ever,
That one's on my list. I just have to BLUP my TB filly and I'll hopefully get to it default smiley (lol)
By Retired breeder, 18th August 2017 19:55:37
I'm thinking of doing a Mustang cross soon. If anyone else is looking to try one, shoot me a PM.

@Ever-
I just covered my TB filly with a Friesian stallion. I'll let you know when the foal is born default smiley ;)


I auto-bought a TB x Fries the other day (I get horses that are less than 3000e from sales) but am interested in seeing higher GP horse/how it comps.

but here's the GP ratio if you're interested. Top skills are stm, dressage, gallop.

Thanks Ever!
Looks like a good reining cross.
We'll see how it goes.
Has anyone bred any 4 way crosses lately? Specifically within the last 2-3 weeks? I just bred a 25/25/25/25 cross and the breed took the dam's first listed breed when it should have taken the sire's second.
Foal Knab dominant
sire Paso x Haflinger
dam Knab x Brumby

I'm thinking I'll get started on a new project this week. Something Dressage oriented. That still keeps the dominant breeds regular skills boosted as well.

I no longer own him but here is a Friesian/TB I had blupped awhile ago. Took me forever to get his wins.

Thinking on starting a breeding project that improves all skills. Thinking crossing a lustino with a Argentina criollio. Then cross a lustino with either a Kwpn or a selle francias. Then breeding the resulting foals together would that increase all the skills in a horse.

My sister has a Knab/Standardbred cross and I'm thinking of doing one of those for trot comps, or maybe another Arabian cross. I'm kinda on the fence. What do you guys think?


Are you planning on breeding to have all 6 skills the same? If so--I heard that those projects/horses don't do the best in comps.
