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.

5 years old and already has 40 first place wins. default smiley :-)) He is on hold for finishing his training because I let board expire on some of my horses yesterday so my lessons fell from .099 to .098 so I have to wait for the lessons gain to go back up before I finish him. *pouts*

Varon
Just picked up this pretty thing from the PS already BLUP'd and ready to go. I'm thinking I'm going to breed her to a high GP Marwari stud. Anybody got any other ideas?

Zanna_Girl,
thats a beautiful coat she has. What skills are you trying to breed for?
Speed. >> Paint or something would be an obvious choice, but I'm trying breeds and crosses I've never done in the past and pure and cross Paints are really up there in the GP.

Yep, Marwari probably is not the best choice if your looking for speed. Paint is probably the way to go. I have a Paint stallion that would be willing to help you out if you are interested but your best bet would probably be the public covers. Last time I looked there were some better Paint Stallions on the public list then the one I have. Of course you could think about breeding her to a Quarter/Paint cross. Get some good speed and gallop out of that.

I was mixing Marwari up with a different breed. >> Thanks for the offer and tip.

Brumby's have nice speed but they would really eat away at your dressage. default smiley ;)
Thank you zepharo!
Varon is looking very good!
Is he going to be available for covers when he is finished. Because I have a mare or two who look to be interesting matches.default smiley :-))

I deleted my previous account, but I was going to start a program where you cross Arabians and Paints, and another crossing Arabs and Quarter Horses. There were no Marwaris . . . I'll have to check them out in a few days.
Clematis, I know! He's a bit unique and I will hopefully be able to put him up for stud eventually. He had a pile of inborn skills, which is why I snatched him up to begin with.
