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.

default smiley :-x Actually, firstbornchild3 - These crossbreds are kicking purebreds out of the rankings, so How bout you keep your opinions to yourself, and maybe not post stupid comments. default smiley :-))

Especially since the #1 Elite (skills) Appaloosa, Barb, Brumby, Canadian, Hackney, Holsteiner, Marwari, Mustang, Peruvian Paso, Russian Don, Trakehner, Connemara Pony, Fjord, and Quarter Pony are crossbreds. Think before you type. default smiley ;)

I'm going to be trying to get about 200 more wins on Meek today. I'll mainly be entering Cross Country and Trot races. Please let me know if you are also entering horses in those competitions so I can avoid it.

Hopefully I'll have pet games and lessons done on Desire tonight. He should still rank.
By Retired breeder, 31st December 2011 02:22:33
Wow, Meek is doing horribly in comps today. She's gone from being undefeated all day yesterday to placing 4th in at least 1/3 of her comps.

Time to start entering Rachel and Irony. Maybe even Wimshurst if things get really bad. I'm determined to make the top 20 for wins tonight.

Alright, I think my friend and I have just come up with a brilliant cross, if it works.
Krane Ranch bred her paint w/ a QH, and we were talking about how we could make a really highly skilled cross breed, and here's what we've decided:
QH/Paint(Xena'sGuardianAngel)+speed+dressage+gallop
Breed her w/Arabian stud for +stamina
Then breed That filly(once we get a filly) w/Hackney for +trot
THEN a Morgan for +jumping
And Finally...A Thoroughbred for +more speed.

Barrel horse? I think so.
Un-freaking-stoppable.
Any input?
How do you guys all fund your cross breeding? Do you guys sell your crosses, or do you do other projects that earn you money? Just curious as I don't have access to buying passes and wanted to see what you all did. default smiley :)

Hey guys. Hope you all are having fun today. I'm working with my BP today on our pure's. Trying to get some better breeding stock for future crosses. PM me if you want to chat or need anything from me. Not that that is very likely. Have a good day.
Why are GV so difficult to BLUP? default smiley :(

emma- I usually sell my crosses. Back when I had unis I sold my uni foals for passes and that worked perfectly...just make sure you don't accidentally sell your favorite, best, most valuable uni for 15k like I did last week... default smiley (li)


Comps are looking a little better. I'm still really reluctant to enter Wimshurst in anything though. He has 230 trot wins and has never placed below 2nd in any comp. I don't want to risk messing up that record.


Anybody remember the Owlimpiads? I wish we could have another contest like that. Our crosses would rock it.
twilight GV's are not hard to blup. I haven't had any more issues with them then any other breed.

My GVs are easy as pie to blup. What are you trying to blup them in? Cross country is what mine were usually good at, but my newest one was great in Dressage. (Thanks to that tip to do dressage haha)

Speaking of him, there he is. I'm offering coverings from him, so anyone want one?

If you are having a problem blupping a horse, perhaps you need to change your method. I blup every single breed, cross and pure, with the exact same method.

lolita; I'm using the same method I've always used. I BLUPed my other GV, Killer Soul, with no problems...but this one is proving difficult...
