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.

HB, didn't you used to work with the paint team? Also, which player does the top selle and tb crosses and puts them in sales? Lizzie something? I'd like to see the skillset on one. I need a new comper. OH or maybe a vanner/tb? Anybody got one of those I can look at?

Need some help on getting wins for Gather on the River. Chinco Pony/GV cross. Currently has 12 wins and mostly bolded out…
Any suggestions on what competitions would be good to get the rest of the wins? Has wins in both Classical and Western competitions.

I was on the top paint team, but we aren't on speaking terms. I asked the #2 team and got ignored, so whatever.

And lizzie did until people started asking her for them so she quit. There is someone else who will do it occasionally, but I can't remember her name

Maybe try lowest level WP for those last few pesky wins? Never worked with a chinco, I mostly did dressage and gallop compers.



Oh, I'm sorry to hear that about the team. That's odd she would stop breeding them just because people were asking, since that is a source of pass income. But oh well. I'd like to do something for reining or barrels. I really enjoyed my tb/paint. I need a new toy default smiley :p

default smiley :d I bet I annoyed a lot of folks in low rookie jump. Comped 4 crosses, 1 Uni, 1 Foundy. Retired 2 fillers. I am so exhausted now. Gunna do it all again tom. night with 6 crosses. I wonder what I'll do when I'll run out of compers lol

I think I need caffeine.

I believe this week I breed for a TB/Selle...

Hiya! GV member popping in. Unfortuantely Dauntless doesn't offer crossie coverings at top gp, just as HB stated, though we may be able to find you one at our sales release?

However I checked out the page for the #2 team to check out what it said about crossies, and it only mentioned that there's "strict covering guidelines." I don't speak for their team obviously, and I'm not sure where to find their guidelines, but I'm sure it's worth shooting a message.

Hope you find your crossie!! default smiley (l)

My SF/KWPN cross has done a good job, time to move to a retirement plan...



Whoa ! Gorgeous! Why retiring so early? I've comped horses well into their 60's default smiley xd Would have been older but I to a break from the game right in the middle of it. Must have gotten burned out default smiley (lol)

Cannot believe I managed to get this guy up to 23 rosettes. I didn't even think he had a chance considering the amount gallop has increased in the TB, King in the North default smiley :d

And I have this guy up to 50 rosettes he needs 8 more and he will be the highest rosette winning Marwari in classical comps. Jaime Lannister

@WorldofHorsecraft, You'll probably like the crossie skiller I did a few weeks ago, SF/KWPN.

Here's Lannister Gold

Thanks default smiley :)
I'll probably still do one aging worth of comps every now and then when I have extra time, but I have many other horses that I try to get lots of wins with, and blupping projects and AP farm...

I still comp my dressage horses from 2012 - 2014, although the oldest of them is only 42 years as I tend to forget about their existence for several months at a time.



That's pretty great, considering I struggle to even win gallop rosettes with pure TBs!
Now I really want to do a rosette comper...lol

*goes to find an awesome cross to have something cool to show*

Most of my recent crosses are in the A©crossTheUniverse breeding farm...

Maybe I should try a KWP/Selle cross and see how that turns out. I never breed my crosses thinking they will win rosettes, it just kind of happens default smiley (lol)

Ugh. I finally got a filler in all my old gallop comps so my new gallop comper can't stomp him. Old guy is almost to 1500 gallop wins. My new guy is going for the wins board
