The Rare Breed Repopulation Community (2023 Edition)

Until registries are in place the Breeding Communities forum will be for players to work together towards creating or improving their favourite breeds.
Forum rules
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.
All new threads must be approved.

Ha, yeah I've hit up some of the ones on the stud market that still have energy (including draining the last of the energy from one of them :lol: ) but there aren't too many, and at least one has pretty much the smallest body size that an Exmoor can have while still being 5*. And the others... yeah, are kind of pricey for me, haha.

Also, this breeding project is to work on the Exmoor breed itself, not a rare breed, so I don't want to make it seem like I'm looking for club resources for it. Just figured someone might still have Exmoors from one of their projects.

Fair enough. The best I can offer is usage of a Prze or Tarpan stud to make more. I'd attempt to breed some but I've hit my limit of pregnant mares; maybe if you're still looking when I clear out a project then I'll be able to do more.

Haha, yeah, I'm a little too full up myself to start breeding new ones from scratch just yet. Maybe I'll have room once some of these early generation dudes age out. In either case, I'll probably be looking for Exmoors for a good long while in an effort to keep the genetic diversity up in this project (I try to aim for really low COI whenever I can) so feel free to ping me if you happen across any in the future. And thanks for offering the help!

Andalusian (2490) = [ Sorraia x Carthusian ] x [ Sorraia x West African Barb ]

Undecided.

[/EclipticEnd] hi this is barba, I have two Irish sport horses and one mixed iirish sport horse that I am willing to stud out. For free. You don’t need to pay me nothing. I am doing this for the community. But if I am allowed to get something could I get a Irish sport horse filly for breeding purposes.

We appreciate the offer, however I believe most of the members who would be working on Irish Sport Horses are taking a hiatus from this club. Since no one's currently working on them (to my knowledge), we have no horses to breed to them in order to make more.

Thanks for letting us know, though! When we get to work on this breed, we'll keep your studs in mind. : )

Attention all RBRC members!

I'm clearing my farm of some of the older RBRC horses. This is your chance to grab any that you'd like to keep before their sold or aged out. Take a look in my Mares and Studs barns for any that you might be interested in. Let me know by the end of the week (July 15th) and I'll transfer them. They're free to club members regardless if you've just joined or were here at the club's creation. It's first come, first served. After the 15th they'll be aged out or go up for public sale.

The Latvian stallion is not included. I'm keeping him still as I'm still in the process of working on those.

I'll be working on club things once my current projects (Miniature Horses and Latvians) are complete. I'm waiting on a Latvian filly of good HGP to be born and I'm still working my way towards Minis. I'll let you guys know once I'm able to help out more!

Hey,

I haven't been active with the RBRC for a while (I was formerly known as Hannah771 but I changed my username). I'm looking to get back into it now. What's the main project?

Hey! No worries, I think everyone's taken a break to do their own things which I 100% encourage.

The current main project is Irish Sport Horses, but I'm open to changing it if enough community members ask. We can certainly add Yilis to the list! I'll have to look more into what goes into them to get an idea of what we need, but rest assured that they'll be worked on eventually.

Okay! Do you know if anyone has any extra ISH so I can help? If not that's fine. I'm not on much anyway.
