Four colts and counting

Hey, so I know this might sound a little weird, but are there any crossbreeders out there who would be willing to take me under their wing and teach me the basics about it?

You will have to forgive me as this is my first crossbreed, but is she a good place to start my little crossbreeding side project ? There weren't any Arabians at the level I wanted to breed with so I decided to start a little side project

Looks good! I love an Arab x Selle, they're good little compers, I did a couple in the past such as Bonsai who won a rosette in both XC and SJ. Can't wait to see when trained up!

Just as a heads up, a lusitano and Tennessee cross makes horses good for trial class.

I don't know how much help i can be but you're welcome to PM anytime!

Hit me up. I've got about 5 years of crossbreeding experience--not as much as some of the folks on the game, but I know my way around it.

Anyone want to work on my project with me? I'm bored/lonelyyyyyy

Sure! Pm me

So I bred this girl to experiment, and now I have a few questions
https://www.howrse.com/elevage/chevaux/cheval?id=62545679
She is equal part Lusitano and Irish Hunter as her highest percentages, so is it possible that if I use the same sire and dam that her siblings could be Irish Hunters instead of Lusitanos, like she is? Or are they all going to be the same breed? And how is the breed decided in this case?

Awesome idea, had to try it out for myself!

No Apocalypse

Won rosettes in both Dressage and Trail!

Awesome! I found it out accidentally through my mare Europa, its just a shame that her GP is low. But I love it when horses are great for multiple competitions.

Best cross for cutting?

I crossed a Lusi and a Criollo and got a Western Pleasure horse. Someone explain to me how that was possible.

The foal's GP is an average of the parents, and because Lusitano's trot GP is so high, it makes trot one of the top 3 skills for that particular cross.

But if you have a horse that really excels in stamina and dressage, then it can dominate low level pleasure (and/or reining comps). This one isn't a cross, but this purebred Paint has nearly 1500 Pleasure wins because I never trained up trot.

I have a cross - GonnaCarryThatWeight - who is Lipizzan 50.0%, Selle Français 43.8%, and Tennessee Walker 6.3% who seems to be good at cutting but I know that it is not particularly simple to get that combination. And, he also has reverse of what the top skill should be.

For a good cutting horse I recommend something with high stamina, dressage and speed. So maybe a gypsy vanner, for high stamina and dressage, cross mustang, speed and stamina, could work.

Cross a horse with a horse that in great at one subject that is your horses weakness
ex. my horse is bad at jumping to cross it with a horse breed that is great at jumping

Okay team I've been away for literally years. What's going on? Apparently my last project was a KWPM/Selle Francais bred to do something pretty unclear.

What's a high GP these days?

hi there (: i've started a paint x tb project, and was wondering if anyone (maybe with more paints than tbs) would be interested in joining in? attached is the link. please feel free to pm me for more info!

thanks,

copper

High GP, is like, 16000+.

I would absolutely love to, but I've kind of got my hands full atm... and while I do own (one) TB, I have no paints.

I just realized I put a comma in the wrong place...

I've got a bunch of paint crosses and just bought a TB mare. So could be open to it?

of course! shoot me with a pm with some more info about you, and i'd love to get started (:

Really happy with how this girl ended up placing in the breed skills! Under Construction excited to breed her and get that stamina up even more

Just something I think is worth looking into- does anyone have a list of the teams that support crossbreeding?
