I love DWBs but always ditch them when I get overwhelmed. However, a club that is active and provides real incentive to being a breeder is a HUGE draw. Nice work! I'll be back to register some horses once I have a chance to go shopping.

OOO fabulous.. gives me a reason to go through my locked dutchies and sort them out.. most of mine are actually western discipline..Found a few that meet your registration requirements  ( or will be there shortly with training/aging/showing).. Ill be registering them with you shortly..Thanks so much!

I'm glad you guys are excited as I am! 

I really want to see improvement and growth for DWBs on EV so I'm really trying to make sure the incentives/rewards are worthwhile. Let me know if y'all want to see anything in particular! 

I’m not sure if i have any that meet the requirements for registration, but i raise dutch warmbloods for driving.
I’ll look through them though, and register those that meet requirements.

Im just in the process of creating a herd of CUSTOM dwb..alas, my last 2 mares confos were only 59.50 ( all goods tho)... the others are eitehr 61.25 or 63. 50 for confo.. go figure.. lolz. Ah well, the foals should have confos that would make them eligible for registration..
As soon as their stats reach minimum.. Ill send in registration requests for most of them, as they will be eligible. : )
My new herd of TT dwbs!..  still working on them..lolz

windspun custom dwbs TT

I'm excited to see how the breed grows and improves! Thank you to everyone who has joined so far! 

I know it can be a little frustrating when their confo is just a little bit off (I have several of those too) but I really want to push us all to breed the best we can and continue to improve! 

just signed up ^.^ 

I don't actually breed Duchies but, if I ever have an eligible one in my "rescue ranch show team" Ill make sure to register them 

Hey guys! New to EV and Duchies! Not high enough level yet to breed, but I’m still a bit confused on how it works. Do you have to breed them to other people’s horses? And can you just use your own mare/stallion combos? I have a lvl 1 Duchie that I’m hoping to take very far! Her name is Jeg Elsker Dig Min Skat. It means I love you my treasure in Danish.

@Flinn - You can do both if you like! It really depends on what you decide to breed for. Most people want to focus on keeping the showing specialty stats (ex: dressage needs high agility and intelligence) high and the non-specialty stats (ex: speed, strength, and endurance if you're focusing on dressage) low. A lot of people are also try to breed for better conformation. So, you can breed your own horses together to maximize those things, or find horses other players have offered for public stud to breed to. 

I've got only a few DWBs and not even with high enough confo to register, but I'm keeping fingers crossed for you guys! It looks like a great initiative! :)

I just registered like 2 mins ago and honestly have no idea how to register my horsies! HaLp!

Thanks for joining, @ShadowGlennStables!

If you scroll down the page to this table, you can click where it has the number of horses currently registered, and this should take you to a registration page. 

Thx so much!
