Here we go! A cross breed thread!

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.


Reminder to all.

Please do not advertise sales of your horses, 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.

This is also *not* a chat topic...Please keep that in mind. If it turns into one, I will be forced to close it down.

Thanks everyone

*Edit*
How to create a clickable link:
[url=link] words here about the horse you are linking [/*url]
Replace the word link with the link to the horse and remove the * at the end.

What breed would be best to cross with a Canadian horse for max skills?


Crossbreeding is a personal choice. It all depends on what you want to do. If you want to create a horse with evenly rounded skills, or for a specific competition. It all depends on what results you want.

To maximize skills all you need to do is breed high GP horses with as close to 100% BLUP as possible. Each generation you breed will have higher skills than the last, with no crossbreeding required.

If you want to keep the same top-3 skills while bumping up the GP of a Canadian-dominant crossbreed, Akhal-Teke, Vanner, QH could work.
