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.

and the random factor isn't small. It can be more than 100 points below max inborns. I believe it is +/- 15% random factor

+/- 4%, so it's really not that large if you look at it percentage wise
Though, yeah, when I see a 80 point difference sometimes it seems outrageously large, especially when the foal is on the under sidedefault smiley (lol)

Haha thats the calculator I used!! default smiley xd

Tears will be used when breeding. I just need to know how to make my IBS go up even more. Thanks!
If you have a Male Qh and with this

KWPN
25.0 %
Appaloosa
25.0 %
Quarter Horse
25.0 %
Thoroughbred
25.0 %

to a mare

Quarter Horse
50.0 %
Thoroughbred
50.0 %

what would the foal be?

The goal breed takes the higher percentage when they're uneven, so it would be QH.

I oops, though you meant bred to the first horse. If that's your stud's breed profile, then I'd guess TB, but I'd do a test breed when the horses are just at breeding age to check.

would it be qh if I made the stallion a mare and the mare the stallion?

It shouldn't matter since both horses have TB first then QH second.

But, the same breed combos like that don't always follow the rules it seems, lol. If you really want the cross, I would do a test breed and see what it comes out like. It's not a lot of APs to get to 2.5 yrs old.

I have two fillies and a colt that are TB x Paint, paint dominant, if anyone wants a project. Paint is listed second in the genetics tab, so the colt will throw Paint foals on another 50x50 cross mare that doesn't have TB. They were bred using top stock and tears.

Paint x TB

very nice Dandy
once I get Orange blupped
I'll go back through my notes to see which pony breed I want to breed her to. I might actually breed another cross to pair her with to get a horse with higher gallop


Depends on what type of comps you want to go for, and if you'd rather go for rosettes or a comp monster.

turned out very nice
Hey all, just popping my head in briefly before likely disappearing for a while again...anybody want a foal out of a pure KWPN mare? Top GP, 100 blup, etc. As usual, you only need to pay for breeding fees.

That depends on what you plan on doing with said foal. We can't tell you that without knowingdefault smiley :)

*stretches* Bred for a Trake/TB cross today. I'll then breed the mare to a Welsh and then...I'm not using her any more. Phew. After that it's just QH crosses, and whatever crazy schemes my head can come up with.

Don't forget I have this forum thread that may be useful to both potential and existing crossbreeders.
It is a comparison table of every breed's top three skills.

If I get enough interest I may put together a similar table which also shows the value of each top skill (as listed in the Directories/under the breed information).
I am looking for a high gp App to cross with my 6326gp Tb and I do not know any of the Top App breeders and if they would consider selling a cover to one of there top stallions any help would be Greatly Appreciateddefault smiley (l) nodesign23
