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.

lollie rogers- a Good gallop horse would be TB/QH maybe or Paint/TB. That could even work for barrel. For Show Jumping, try Hano/Shet. But unless your used to Shetland pet games, I'd try for Hano dominant.

To start my day, I need to sell some skillers for passes. I hope to get some by the end of the day so I can be ready for a cross tomorrow.
What comps would this mare be good at?

I would have trained in Dressage and Gallop and done barrel comps. You could probably train in Speed and do SJ comps.

@ Cookie Blue - that pony would be good for galloping races or barrels. (i think, please someone correct me if im wrong)

I'm new to cross breeding and I'm trying to cross a unicorn with my welsh pony Mrs.Penny. Any advice????default smiley :)

sassyfrassy- You wont get a unicorn out of it unless your mare is also a unicorn of the same breed and you cover her at the right time (I'm not sure what the right time would be for you). Also, for the best result, both parents must have 100 BLUP (top three skills bolded and 20 wins). I also suggest using Aphrodite's Tears.

Before crossbreeding you need to have a goal in mind. Know whether you want to have a good competition horse, make specific skill rankings, or make general skill rankings.

I hope you enjoy your breeding! I know it all sounds kind of confusing but you'll get the hang of it quickly.

Whoa! I just realized I'm ranked #36 for competitions won yesterday. Of course, that's thanks to Meek, Rachel, and Irony (sorry, Wimshurst, have to leave you out of this one, lover boy). I looooove my crossies.



Mmmph, Messy's not having a good day and I just woke up. I'll go running in a few minutes then see how I feel. I think I spent too much time on here yesterday. default smiley :-x
I am *so* proud of This Means War, Thalassophobia, Ghost Hunter, and Azurite. They have become my babies. default smiley (7)

So frustrated with Silver Rose. She just can't win. I'm going to have to try some other comps cause cross country just isn't working.

Star- It does. I can barely find any comps that doesn't have a comp monster in it.

Sorry if Meek is one of those monsters. None of my monsters will be filling up the comps for a while yet since none of the have MA anymore. So everyone has at least a few days of free comps. Once I get the Harmony Pack from the North Pole thing then I'm going to start entering Believe in comps. I'll be sure to let people know when he's being entered though.


Egh, I really wish I could buy passes. I want to get one of those Treasure Chests so bad. I know I'd probably be too unlucky to get one even if I had the passes but that doesn't stop me from wanting to try. Messy wants shiny items for her crosses! *throws tantrum*


default smiley :k
Probably Star. And thanks Mess. Your at least trying not to stomp all of us that are BLUPping.

Eh, that sucks, Rayday. Are they legitly stomping you or are they just blanketing? If there's any way I can help let me know. I'd be happy to unleash my monster ladies on any stompers.
It would figure my 1355 GP horse is having more trouble getting wins than my foundations do.

Stomping is not an hour long occurrence... nor is it a common one. Stomping is vicious targeting over the period of a few days with no letting up... A comp horse getting a few wins for an hour or two is not stomping, especially if you don't even know the owners of said horses.

Mess, there are just several monsters who are blanketing at least the cross country comps my mare has access to. I've managed to grab 2 wins in 2 days and I've entered 18 comps...
