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.

Hi guys, I still get terribly confused when trying to determine what a foal's breed will be when the parents are cross-bred, and could use some info here.

I have a potential queen who is 50% Paint and 39% Hunter. The potential sire is 37% Frie, 36% Hunter, and 19% Paint.

Which breed is the foal most likely to show, Paint or Hunter?

Nice foal Coc. default smiley ;)

Cryfenril- Maybe...paint because if you add the %s together its 69% while hunter is 75%...no I think it is hunter. It's more dominate in both than paint is. default smiley ;)

Only no star in speed. Good cross though.
By Retired breeder, 16th May 2010 17:02:31
Yes I noticed she only needed a star in speed if I bred her to a paint after shes BLUPed do you think I could get a speed star without loosing the other ones?
By Retired breeder, 16th May 2010 17:03:32
Cyren- It would be IH.
Thanks guys!

I got impatient and couldn't wait. Surprise, surprise - this was the result. Barely a 2% difference between breeds! She will be fun to work with that speed and dressage...

I think might try an IH cross Fresian for a dressage superstar. What do you think?

If you want to do something like that with arabs I have Gala in my Simply Crossed tab. She is either 2% or 1% something else and it should cross out after a few generations very easily.

Just sold 3 cross babies for 75000!!!!!
By Retired breeder, 16th May 2010 23:21:51
7,500 or 75,000? because 75,000e sounds like alot.
By Retired breeder, 16th May 2010 23:28:08
75,000!!!!
By Retired breeder, 17th May 2010 01:04:11
