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.

carrie that has happened to me a few times. Now when I do my 4 ways. I typically blup the mare to get her ready but with the stallion I want to use only get him up to 2.6 years. Do a test foal. If the foal comes out the breed I want then I blup the stallion. If it doesn't then I toss him out like a dirty dish water and try again till I get a combo that will give me what I want.

Yeah, I should have tried that. Hopefully I can sell the foal and the 50/50 blupped horse for a few passes to get some money back atleast. Luckly I still have plan B, which is another project I can try if I can get the passes back.

That's happened to me toodefault smiley ;)
with my 4 ways I typically also don't put anything special on them other then a sea horse. Since it comes free with the account.

I'm thinking of doing another 4 way this weekend cause I have to update my Jump fry horse. Should update my gallop fry as well both are really outdated.

insane dreams, crossbreeding is when you breed two horses together that are different breeds, like a Paint with a Frienian to get the best rankings or highest GP and skills.

WelcomeToTheJungle is not good at all skill wise but skills can be raised. He will be gelded and given my "The Favorites" affix and live his life out as a show horse.

Well I'm back. Skilled these two buggers and started a "small" Mar/TB side project where I basically get 50/50 siblings and breed them back and forth. Generations will be alternating between TB and Mar, which will be interesting to play with. All I need to do now is test breed one of my TB/Mars with either my Lusi/Fry or my Lusi/Fry/Arab and see if the skill set's what I'm looking for.

I'm not gonna be spending as much time on Howrse as I'd like, so I'm a bit worried for my homebred skiller foals. If I don't work on them now they're gonna get outdated real quick.

Time to find the perfect foal. Got my Nyx and my Podesions Packs and I can go search howrse for my foal or I can go buy a BLUPed mare and breed her to an arab or something. I have no clue whatsoever to do. Better go work it out.

Wah! A horse I have had a really cute coat but it was taken off the game. So my horse doesn't have the coat anymore. But hey, Howrse compensated me with a GA.

Anyways, back to crossbreeding. Meet The Monster is Ranked!! And aftere I do games and lesson (Whenever that happens) he should place higher. I'm waiting for the new coat though to see what I like.

But, thats about all my crossing for a while unless I magicaly come up with another Nyx Pack and a good companion.

Test bred one of my Lusi/Fry mares with my TB/Mar stud and the foal came out TB dominant instead of Mar dominant. Didn't like that huge drop in trot anyway. Maybe things'll come out better if I breed my TB/Mar filly with my 75/25 Lusi/Fry stud...
*Sigh* Stupid computer. Always acting up. Stupid life always going wrong.

Anyway. Anyone have a *NICE* test foal they don't want?

Welcoming Malware to my breeding farm since I found that I need another all-star, particularly another with decent trot skills.
