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.

My Appie finally sold! Now I have some extra passes to play around with, it's just a matter of figuring out what I want to do. I was considering another speed-based cross but I think I want to do another Western one, either barrels or cutting. We'll see where my plans lead me. default smiley (m)

It turned out nice! You should also consider breeding to a trot horse since trot is dressage's 2nd skill.

I have a bunch of random cross foals that I don't plan on using if anyone wants one. Im always cross breeding my AP/Filler mares and when I get a good cross Im excited, thinking that Ill blup it but never get 'round to it. lol.

Speaking of.. I think some of my mares are foaling today. Lets see what happens, default smiley (lol)

Gallop and trot are both secondary skills, I don't want to breed to a trotting horse because gallop would go down the drain.default smiley xd

True. It will be interesting to see how the extra gallop plays in.

Yes, it will.default smiley :) While trot counts for more, the horse still needs gallop, and that's why I chose Lusitano (Not to mention a gp boost)default smiley :-))

I tried Paint, and it comes out good but stamina is tanked. I'll try Chinco now.

Try Marwari, or Tekes if you want higher stam than gallop.

She would be good if speed wasn't so low. I am aiming for a barrel horse so I need to keep speed and stamina up, but I would like to increase gallop to be higher than a Mustang's.

I will try Marwari (forgot about those) but I think a Teke would bring gallop down too much. Miss Heny, can I see your Chinco crosses?

Both I would have to experiment with to see where the stamina and speed land me. Let me think on it while I toy with some other breeds.

I've worked out a rough timeline of when I'm gonna get that SF x KWPN. Friday next week is when I stop school for a week because of a school break. I might have time next weekend to get the cross skilled. I just need to age up 7 pass horses, 3 for the horse and 4 for the cloud pack.

In other news, I'm trying to get my EC up and running again. I need to work out the competitions again as everything has changed, and I can't remember which crop would probably be the most important at the moment etc. It's like I've forgotten everything about EC's. I really want to get my EC decent again so I can open it up for crossbreeders or something along those lines.default smiley (y)
