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.

@Megawifey It's legit how I end up with all of my horses, just scrolling through and picking one at random. I probably should put a little more thought into it, but where's the fun in that? default smiley xd

@Chickennugget OOOOOO palomino too! He's gorgeous. Stud me reckons?

@Megawifey maybe the term is over-selective?

Nah, that's what I do too! I plan everything step by step and use the GP calculator and always take the route that will give me the best end result.


His dam is a cremello tobiano. Their coat colors are beautiful! I'll get around to training him eventually. default smiley :p

I feel so ill-prepared compared to some of youse. default smiley xd I'd start off with a plan and then just scrap it and pick a random breed.

I am a picky breeder too. Lol I always check for high GP, IBS, and 100 BLUP. If it is a cross, I calculate a rough estimation of stats before I breed.

I know my dressage horse will be roughly 5219.78 GP if all goes according to plan. default smiley :p My resources are very limited so I try to get everything done first try without having tons of redos.

I'm breeding my Hack/KWPN to my TB mare. And doing a rough calculation the GP of the foal should be 5454.76 roughly. And be TB dominant.
An update on the new baby

#1 for Crio jump (her twin is #2) and #10 for gallop as of a couple days ago, haven't looked today to see if she got bumped down.

I have one I love to comp as well, but she's from much further back than your Crio. This girl used to be my pride and joy she's not worth too much now, but back when 700-800GP was groundbreaking she was top of the Mustang boards for a few weeks.


Ah! I have been seeing her in the comps, and I have to tell you, her name/coat comb made me laugh so hard! Very Clever! XD

Waiting for the comps to go through but hopefully tomorrow I will have part 1 done.

Depends whether you want an allrounder, or a specific comp horse.

Worst thing is that I only have one other horse of that breed and her skills are entirely too low to be entered in the comps. default smiley :'( So much for fillers...

Yeah, that happens with my TB's, the fillers have too low skills just when I need the last final wins default smiley :(

Mine has only gotten 3 wins with 50+ pending comps. default smiley xd

Anyways, anyone know of Lusi teams that offer coverings that are above 5200 GP? I have contacted a team and am still awaiting a response.
Oh no!

I don't know about Lusi... I can help anyone with TB coverings...? I have a team stallion with 5500+ GP that I will give coverings for. Though you can get higher public ones. I will cover for 1000e.
Just PM me maybe if you want one. I haven't BLUPed yet though... default smiley (n)default smiley (ow)

I should probably start BLUPing my paint crosses at least to 70... * Sigh* boring BLUPing. And I have to do foal games... Crud.

Any ideas for a nice paint cross? No idea what I want.
