I breed Anglo Arabs ( TB x Arab) and they turn out quite nicely, high stamina, speed and gallop. Just have to up my mares blup and they will be great.

I just saw this topic, thanks zepharo! I'm going to go back and read some of the older posts when I get a chance. Work has been insanely busy which is welcome after being unemployed for 9 months.

Anyhow, my latest crossbreeding project was to breed a Welsh crossbred that had Trot as one of it's top two skills for lesson gain. I was thinking it was going to take forever as I was going to use just Welsh and Standardbred, but then I got the idea to add another strong trot breed, Hackney, to the mix. Then I could have a lower percentage of Welsh and have it still considered a Welsh. I was able to buy one of the breeding stock horses I needed already BLUPed which saved some time and I already owned another one who was useful, and four generations after I started, I ended up with this:

She's currently leading the Welsh skills rankings for Trot by over 50 points. It was a lot of fun to try to figure out what breed(s) I needed to breed to get my end result and that's part of the fun of crossbreeding.

Oh my Word! MiataManiac, that is incredible!
I looked at the path you took to get that mare and I am beyond impressed!

do you think that a Standardbred/Hackney cross would be good for trot? because those are like the ONLY two horses with really good trot.....
I have 3 Hackneys and maybe it would be fun to breed those, don't you think?

Here is my latest Quicksilver by way of ⋛ Pøฬєя Sŧдŧiөи ⋚ courtesy of pixiesbite and Flamebird

He joins my quest to improve my all star category skillers.

I love power station Clematis I actually produced that horse

I also really like Flamebird good luck in your crosses they look beautiful

&& a standardbred?


What ya think?

jbradin23 - Thank you.
I appreciate the opportunity to be able to access the good work of other players. I've said it before and I'll say it again. It isn't easy to get a good cross bred howrse. You need access to the best possible howrses and the understanding of how each individual breeding affects the end result. I spend a great deal of time spreadsheeting the potentials before breeding.
Saves a fair bit of time and frustration.

The darkness - I ran Rising Legend numbers with Flamebird, my 17 star standardbred.
The foal could have the following skills:
Stamina 128.58
Speed 140.595
Dressage 137.22
Gallop 96.01
Trot 119.89
Jumping 90.12
Total GP could be 712.42

zepharo - I am loving the ability to connect with fellow cross breeders. I am enjoying the new possibilities of game play opening up for myself and other players. Thank you for providing the opportunity for fellow like minded players to gather.

I only just found this topic... and thanks! At the moment I am just experimenting. Currently I'm breeding 100BLUP foundies together in various combinations and examining the results. Eventually I want to see if I can breed a horse/pony with EVERY breed in its genetics (if thats possible) with no inbreeding and also to breed perfectly balanced skill horses, also without inbreeding. Thus was born Dragonsflame Balance. I currently have 1 RD stallion, one paint stallion and one fresian mare with 100 BLUP and also other breeds unBLUPed.

I see the results with a few different breeds and tell you the best (:

I'm going to start breeding Freisan-Paint-QH For wonderful foaling.... should Increase GP in all areas....

My twin bred this horse and we are working together to make good shetland crosses o-o

Shetland/TB

only 7 years old has stars in almost every category but trot. 17* total. 642.25 skills at the moment but slowly gaining.

I found an Arabian mare, my friend has:

If I cross it with my horse:
http://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=9081147

I get an Arab foal with!

Stamina:162.17 - 7*
Speed:114.54 - 2*
Dressage:163.95 - 7*
Gallop:128.18 - 3*
Trot:66.99
Jumping:115.23 - 2*

Total:751.06

how do you calculate the stars of the foals? and the GP? O.o

The Gp is:

The Mares and Studs GP added together the halved. You can do this with each still or the whole GP but there is a 1.2 difference, with games and this is not always right it can sometimes be a few places off.

And there is one star for every 10 after 100 in a skille. 101 counting as 1 star.

Pm me if that doesn't make sense.

Thank you Clematis for your compliment. I worked hard to get China and I'm very proud of her. The first time I bred that last generation, I ended up with Standardbreds, so I had to Bolt the stallion into a mare and breed to a Welsh/Standie stallion which fortunately I already had.

It's great hearing what everyone else is up to!

A rare and wonderful treat - a six-skilled Hunter foal!

I am going to sell him, since he isn't quite up to the GP I am looking for in my breeding program, but man was it nice to see him arrive!

i breed anything lol dont have a breed but it has to be crossbred

He's really nice Cryfenril!

jbradin23, Power Station turned out pretty good, huh?!

Clematis, Quicksilver is looking pretty good!

Power is up for more coverings if anyone wants to use him, please feel free to pm me...

I also have other cross stallys, and a 12* chinco stally for cross covers.

here is my latest cross breed. She is Paint x Newfie:
