᭙ashington Estates Log

Greetings, I am Katie, KJ or K for short. I breed horses for Eventing/English competitions. The breeds I primarily work on are Warmbloods, they need a bit more popularity on the platform. A little bit about me is I own seven animals with my wife. A Quarter horse × Akhal-Teke named Flecha Rose, a Dutch Warmblood × Thoroughbred named Red, a Quarter horse × Akhal-Teke foal named Bekham, a goat named Shelby, a ram named Sebastian, a pig named Petals, a calico named Millie and a beagle named Pecan. If you count passed on horses as well, a Holstein named Pepper, and an Irish Sport Horse named Sargent Bonnet (Sarge). I have been doing Cross Country since I was six years old and now have retired to teaching my daughter how to ride.I created this Log to keep track of all the horses I will have bred, and track my progress on breeding. The mascots of Washington Estates are located here, yes the goats count. To keep this organized I would greatly appreciate it if you did not post on the forum, Thank you!

Current Projects:
᭙ashington mascots
Austrian Warmbloods

I decided to start breeding Holstein and Austrian Warmbloods from AC stock.

So far I have bought a North African Barb x Arabian to breed to a Thoroughbred:

Hello, again! So I have not been on to do anything, because I was moving, but I have given some thought and have decided to join the Rare Breed Re-population community! After doing some very time-consuming Information, also known as clicking a link to breeds wiki, Austrian Warmbloods have a population under 100. Mind-blowing! So I signed up as a Specific Breeder for Australian Warmbloods, today. Not only that, but I have decided I will be breeding these from AC stock. Yes, you heard me right, AC stock.
So I have created an entire diagram of breed creations leading up to Austrian Warmbloods. Now every horse on my farm is up for sale, so whoever is reading this you are welcome to check them out!
I will put the chart down below. The next part is getting all required AC stocks and separating them into their pastures.
Wish me luck and hope my grinders give me enough Pony Tokens.

Entry number...I don't know. I have successfully started breeding for Austrian Warmbloods! Yay! this will be a fun breeding project! I have decided to start breeding on Nonius because the makeup looked easy. Nonius is a breed that will be crossed with a Thoroughbred to get the first half of the makeup breeding for Austrian Warmbloods.
I have bred a Tarpan×Belgian cross and a Forest horse × Belgiancross, then once they are both breeding age I will then breed them and hopefully get a Norman Cob.
The Norman Cob will then be crossed with a Norfolk Trotter to get a [Norfolk × Norman] and that will be crossed with a [Arabian × Andalusian] to get a Nonius.
Now explaining it, I think I might be eating too much grain. :lol:

Day...something?
I have re-homed the horses *forehead slap*. What was going through my head? I don't know, definitely not "No, KJ, don't!!"
So I am starting over from scratch! Same thing as previous posts just with different base horses!
Another update, my grinder died, so if whoever is reading this has one for sale feel free to ping me! (Separate forum please)

KJ signing off!

Small update, no progress.
I keep breeding for Cleveland Bay, not Norman Cob. :lol:
[Belgian×Tarpan]×[Belgian×Forest Horse] makes a Norman Cob, I keep trying to breed a Cleveland Bay with this recipe. No wonder I am not making progress!

Edit:
Got a good product!! So close to a Norman Cob!!

I haven't been on much, a lot in my life has happened recently so I have been trying to recover from that. I have just started getting back into breeding. Today I successfully bred a 5* Norman Cob Filly and have just bred the Arabian × North African Barb for the Cleveland Bay.

Hello! It's been a bit!
I have successfully bred a Norfolk Trotter! Which means all that is left to breed is an Andalusian!
The Norfolk will be bred to my Norman Cob to create a cross
[Norfolk Trotter × Norman Cob]
And once the Andalusian is bred it will be crossed with an Arabian to create a cross
[Arabian × Andalusian]
These two crosses will be paired and with some luck I will have my first base horse for the Austrian Warmblood!

Edit: The only problem is The Norfolk Trotter is 2* for Nonius
