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.

Quick question! I started crossbreeding casually just to make a few of my own skillers, nothing competitive.
I now have a 50/50 horse and want to breed this horse again but I know which breed I want the horse to come out as. How do I ensure this as I crossbreed down a line??

In a 50/50, the fool's dominant will always be the same as the Stallion. So if I want a 50/50 Arab/TB, and I want the dominant breed to be a Arab, the mare needs to be the TB, and the stallion needs to be a Arab.

If you want an Arab dominant foal from two 50/50 Arab/TB horses, it will not matter if the mare is TB dominant or Arab, but you would have to have a Arab Dominant Stallion.

Basically, when ever the parents dominant breeds are equil, the foal will take on the stallions breed. The only time when a foal takes after the mares breed, is when the mare's dominant breed is higher then that of the stallion, or their combined breeding out ranks the dominant breed.

EXAMPLE:
TB dominant stallion (50% TB/50% Arab)
+
QH mare
= QH dominant foal (50% QH/25% TB/25% Arab)

Or

TB dominant stallion (50% TB/50% Arab)
+
Arab dominant mare (50% QH/50% Arab)
=
Arab dominant foal (50% Arab/25% TB/25% QH)

Hope that helps. ^^

I've got a BLUP guide in my forum that's flexible to whatever dominant skills your horse has. It walks you through it so it's pretty easy to follow I think.

i have a 50% gypsy vanner, 12.5% kwpn and 37.5% Argentinean Criollo.

http://www.howrse.com/elevage/chevaux/cheval?id=47896401

im going to get as high of gp as possible and im willing to breed (aka cross-breed) with another player or with a group.i got a public crossbred covering with my gypsy vanner mare so i dont have any other x-bred.i also want to know your opinion (via pm) on what i should do next with this one.

im looking to get a competitor in a breed that doesnt do well in a certain competition (example:a "paint horse" that is awesome in trot)

I am jelly. That is an awesome mix.

Also, if you are breeding a 50/50 and a 50/50, it will come out the stallions non dominant breed.
So say like this:
Mare 50% QH 50% TB (dominant)
Stallion 50% Paint 50% KWPN (dominant)

The foal will come out a paint.

All I wish is that it was a filly. I've bred 5 foals this weekend and only one was a filly.

I should say 6 foals, 5 colts and 1 filly.

The filly, Visaenya
Finished some studs. Not putting out publics as I don't want em to go to waste. So ask me.

Yeah!

Spirit!

Just bred for a Fri/QH. So that foal's due next weekdefault smiley :)

They're nice, a little low GP for me, but the crossing is very nice.

which breed is the worst for western pleasure? (high trot,low stamina,low dressage)- i have a mare that is awesome for it so if i breed with a stud thats of a breed that isnt good at it,i get a baby of the studs breed with the mares genes.
