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.

Edit by pixiesbite

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.

They're a very unique and exciting project - a shame they don't sell better.

They're a bit like unicorns that way - not many of them out there, but they're so darned expensive to produce that it's tough to keep going without sinking a tremendous amount of fundage into them!

I can't even begin to estimate the amount of money I've spent on passes (nor do I want to, especially when hubby is around!) producing and BLUPping these guys, and even though a great many of them outperform their purebred counterparts, they're slow to sell. Especially for passes! Very frustrating.

[URL= http://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=10615948]I got bored so I bred this 23 star anglo. I'm not sure what to do with him yet. He's pretty good as far as I can tell, but then again I've never bred an Anglo-Arab before.default smiley (lol) Please tell me what you think.[/URL]
I agree cry, people just want the pure, when the X might be even better.

I bred pure Qh for a bit to gain money and get me started on cross breeding. (I used to do appendix TB) but now I can fully support myself on crosses due to comps, covering money, and selling horses. It is a little challenging when selling them, but it's manageable. I'm really hoping that black pearls will come out soon and that I will have enough passes at the time to get one.. if I do, I'll be set for a while, lol.

Oh I agree Mega & Cry, they are hard to sell

Wild Cat---> Just letting ya know Cryfenril prefers to be called Fen! Because Cry makes her sould like a 'whiner'
Lol, oh decisions decisions - do I look like a crybaby or a low swampy stinky wetland?

default smiley :k

I have been called Fen, Mama Fen, Cry-cry, and a host of other silly things. I answer to just about anything except "Hey, you!".

I agree Cryfenril. What should we call you?
By Retired breeder, 22nd June 2010 03:17:27
James---> I call her Fen!
Heh, in one-on-one conversation I prefer Fen, but like I said, I answer to darned near ANYthing in the forums. I am not picky that way.
