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.

I bred a Standie and Paint. Not the best. My Standie/Gypsy Van is a stamina and dressage king. How good are Arab/Thouroughbreds? I just started crossbreeding. My Standie Allie was dam on both.

I would say that it depends on what your goal is. Are you breeding for rank, a certain skill set, or just for fun to see what happens? I think Arabs, along with Thoroughbreds, are Grand Prix breeds (though I think Gypsies have started to take over?), so I would guess that an Arab/Thoroughbred cross would be pretty good at winning competitions (though I'm not an expert at forecasting competition wins; you may want to try the BLUP thread if you want to know that).

Anyone have a 50/25/25 Stallion that doesn't have Paso, Selle or KWPN in its bloodline that I could have a cover from?


I have this horse from my 33.3% project. He's Paint, Appy, and TB.

Ocean's 11 is the next BLUP in equest's and my 3-way project. Very excited about how close we're getting and how easy these guys are to BLUP. I BLUPed Ocean's mother in all non-rookie comps and had no problems with getting wins.

Thank you! Now to age her for the foalie.

Okay guys, I need an opinion on a potential cross. My friend wants to cross a TB to my Curly mare and I'm wondering how the foal might turn out.
What would be the potential skill set?

You can add together the genetics of the parents then divide by 2(take the average) and you'll get an estimate of what the foal's genetics will look like (i.e: dam's gallop GP+ sire's gallop GP/2, trot GP+trot GP/2 etc.)
