CoC-nope-lol! Its good to have friends that breed them tho-lol!

lol lucky

Yeah, I have been sitting on my 12* forever. I have his brother now, who is a comp gelding...and both his parents

hey i think i will give cross breeding a go do any of you no if arabs\paints are any good?

bex-paint/arabs are good at xc comps-look at my Super Cross tab. I have a bunch of them.

bexbex123:

arabs/paints crosses are in my opinion very good. I have a few of them and one of them has 1000+ skills and over 250% dressage.

I used to crossbreed for a showjumping extreme, but I can't find any aussies that can compete with the hanoverians, so my crosses ended up more hano than aussie, so I ended up selling the operation. I might try out barrel crosses when the new graphics arrive

Just posting this again to show a few examples of my homebreds:
====================================
Anglo's (Arabian/Thoroughbred)

http://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=8176197

http://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=8957564
====================================

Starabs (Standardbred/Arab)...not too bad for comps...easily trains in most skills without too many penalties too!

http://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=8029992
====================================

Or look under my affixes: "Classy Anglo Arabs" & "Starabs(ret.affix)"...to get an idea of how those crosses work!

I breed hano x friesian, i have a good friesian with 14*, dirty deeds 14*, she has produced some good foals, but she is retiring, she has won a few comps and she has quite a few skills.
http://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=9197753
thats the address to see her, she is the first cross i have ever completed from birth
would hano x friesian x pain and maybe x arb be a good horse? PM me
thanks for reading
~moogle~

Some people used to get angry at my crosses because they beat out the purebreds in competitions easily


Well, I couldn't resist it... I found a 200e covering for a roundabout 760 GP IH, which was the best I could do with my equus =/

I am working on the achievements, though, so that number should soon go up.

So I will have a 50/50 Arab Hunter. That easily takes care of the stamina, gallop, dressage, and jumping... now I need a horse that's good in speed and trot.

Hrm, forgot I can't see BLUP yet. I'll have to find someone to do that for me *goes to check*

Yes, a cross breeding thread *cheers* . Almost every non-unicorn I breed right now is a crossie, I enjoy seeing how their skills play out and BLUPing them, for me at least, is more interesting that BLUPing a purebred. Currently starting breeding Marwari crosses since I haven't really done those yet, and I love the new breed graphics.

Sweet, a thread for cross-breeders. Awsome!
I have a mix of crosses, but i have found out that a Hano/Friesian cross is a good mix. Gave me at least a g* in all skills and a GP of 720+
Does anyone know any other good mixes to do, perhaps with more breeds in them?
PM me with any crossie info you might have please.
Thanks

i am going to start!!! what are somegood pairs?

is aab / hano a good one as i have some arabs and hanos

333my- I find that a Hano/Friesian is an excellent cross.

That's what I'm trying: standy/arabian, then I'm trying standy/hunter.

*Hopefully* it will work, I've given up on my hanoverians, lol. They suck at dressage so I crossed them with a quarter horse that I have that has high dressage and got a pretty good horse, look at my crosses tab -- forgot what it's called -- but his name is Chase. Also I'm going to try hano/hunter and last I might try a hano/hunter cross and breed it with a arabian/hano cross and see what I get. *Plans deviously*

i like to crosbreed canadians with hanoverians. if you like canadians, and you need a good jumping horse, like me, you should crosbreed a hano mare with a canadian stallion.

P.S make sure the canadian has high skills.

My friend, is breeding canadians. She bred her first horse (who she got to 100 blup on her 18th day!!!) she bred and got twins who are 4-5*... can't remember.... and she's training one of them right now, and she's going to breed that one with a good stallion, then do it again and again (and she's blupping them all) till she has a good stallion, like really good.

Then we are going to do thoroughbred/canadian and canadian/hano.

Does anyone know what would be good to cross a thoroughbred with??

Very experienced X breeder here--bred the first 19* cross ages ago, working on cross to cross no pures

I also breed a odd X here and there

Yay! A crossbred topic!

I'm trying to start up a line of howrses with at least 1* in each discipline

chickentender- depends on what you are aiming to get, or which comp you want it to excell in etc..

chickentender, it depends what you want from the cross. Quarter horses, paints, welsh and chincoteagues can go well with thoroughbreds. But you could also try crossing them with a breed that is usually rubbish in gallop, thereby breeding the best galloping cross-breds for that breed

That's what I'm going to try loops, cross to cross...
