Each breed may have only one topic. The first post in the topic is to be informative. It should help explain the breed, and breeding goals; advice on how to select mares and stallions; and links to ideal Stallions available for breeding.
Keeping a directory of breeders working on the same goal is also helpful.

Large Shetland Project
The Large Shetland Project
My goal is to breed large Shetlands. Specifically, Shetlands over 15hh by the time they're 4. Here I will be posting my progress. If any of you know of any large Belgians (Over 21hh), please contact me in this forum: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=32192

Re: Large Shetland Project
This is a great idea- I might start looking into breeding large shetlands as well, because I find most of them way to small
