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.

Domdoodle- Try an Arab or a Marwari default smiley :)
I have to say that I did not "steal" anybody's idea. I had the #1 gallop Shetland for a while and I just made another, better horse. It happens every day on this game. It is about progress. Each day the #1GP horses for every breed are different. I was working on 200+ genetics in all areas and have had it posted on my page for weeks. I did not get upset when eaglespirit reached the goal before I did. I am glad she got the goal so I can see another approach to get there. I was getting so close but not ever getting that last star. I think the point, as cross breeders is to share our ideas and horses so we can all reach our goals. If I offended anybody by playing this game and breeding my horses, it honestly was not my intention. I like crossbreeding because we all can have top-notch horses in any breed(s) we like!

mscolardi - ive done an arab, and im training him right now, QH dominant. I'll do a marwari next. default smiley ;)

Gouldilox- I wasn't referring to you or anyone specifically when I was talking about people stealing my ideas. I recently rejoined crossbreeding and was planning to make some pretty drastic changes in how I do things. Making my projects more private was one of the things. I've had my ideas stolen in the past and am always worrying that someone might copy me.
I'm sorry for getting so upset about your horse beating mine. As I mentioned, I have some real life issues bothering me and, at the time when I saw your horse, I was really emotional about those issues. It wasn't so much you or your horse that I was upset at. Getting beat, which would usually be a pretty minor issue for me, suddenly became really terrible because of those issues.

Mess- yah...I've had those moments too...You are not alone.

I am now training my QH/Standie cross! He may make it to Gallop boards for standies....He has nice potential default smiley :)


When I am done, I ll post him for you!

Thanks for understanding, Sparky! I'm excited to see your cross. QH/Standie sounds interesting.

I bred this mare a few months ago...she was the #1 gallop paint for a while. now shes dropped down to #2. Her name was Waking Up In Vegas.

And your welcome for understanding default smiley :) I have definetly had my problems throughout life default smiley :)

I decided on a coat/ray combo for my new project. I can't wait until tomorrow to get a Harmony Pack for it! Haha, I'm in a super good mood right now since I just went running. default smiley (lol)

It's going to have this coat with this ray. The project's name is going to be so cool with those. Plus I wont have to spend 200k on a Harmony Pack since I got a P.Stone from the cards which I can trade for it.

I'm still trying to breed a good TB cross though. I only bred one once which hit the #1 spot for Dressage for a couple days. Maybe I can breed a good jump TB from my new project...
By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 02:35:20
Mess, thats a really nice combo, the coat and the ray!
By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 02:37:43
Thanks, Domdoodle!


So I think I'm going to breed my new project to a 50% TB 50% Hano cross. I'll need to make sure the cross has a high overall gp considering my new project is a little low in that area.
By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 02:45:33
So i just bred that QH Friesian cross...came out friesian dominant...which i wasnt hoping for. QHs are just so much easier to blup....
By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 02:50:03
Bought a pretty high GP pure TB mare. I'm going to be breeding a lot of 50/50 crosses out of her. I'll decide on one to quick BLUP and breed to my new project. Hopefully that'll create the monster TB I've been waiting for.
By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 02:50:49
Woo so happy that I'll be getting a top QP cover! YAY!! Now to go buy a nice mare. I love how there is decent prices on mares. I'm used to looking at TBs and just cringing at the price because they all have a nyx pack, so they're 4-5passes. Now I can get one for just equus for a MA blup. default smiley :d
By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 02:53:55
What TB cross do you have in mind Mess?
By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 03:00:52
Are we all on the same wavelength wrt TB mares or something, cuz I just bred a 77* purebred TB to use for my Mar gallop project, lol
By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 03:04:58

Really enjoying Lullaby and his GP (: Now I can relax and buy a new mare (:

By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 03:16:55
Sweet! One of my unis just sold! Only need 3 more passes until I can get my new project a Nyx Pack.

I also think I found a cross to breed it to. Going to test out a few more then decide. Anyone know of a breed that's good in both trot and jump?
By Retired breeder, 19th December 2011 03:26:40
