The NIB FAQ:

What is a NIB horse?
A NIB horse is a horse that is not inbred; every horse in its pedigree appears only once (with the exception of Ouranos and Gaia). Horses with "Horse Disappeared" in their pedigree are generally not accepted by NIB breeders unless the horses in question were bought before the horses disappeared and have verifiable pedigrees.

Are there green star NIB horses?
These horses have lower GP than green stars and other top horses, as not inbreeding limits the breeding availability and is slower to progress than breeding brothers to sisters and so forth.
**Misabel edit: The first Green star NIB horse was created on February 21, 2011 - a 6th generation Connemara pony with a star in stamina. He was the end result of a lot of hard work and effort, but now that some dedicated breeders have shown it can be done, we all have something to shoot for!

Are NIB horses considered better than green stars or inbred horses?
Goodness, no! Nobody here is attempting to make that claim. Just like the Zero GP horses, these players choose to play the game in their own challenging way.

How can I get involved with NIB breeding?
It's simple! Start by purchasing a few foundation horses, or horses whose pedigrees can be tracked down and verified as non-inbred. Then carefully breed them to create foals with good GP's and skills that are not inbred!

    hey all! So, I'm a returning player after being gone for many years but now that I've returned I've chosen to mainly breed Thoroughbreds but I want to keep them all NIB. Since I'm technically "new" after returning and missing a lot, it's hard not having those connections or teams to finds skillers and higher GP studs to breed with. I have my highest skilled mare that I'm looking to breed, but the only public coverings I have to choose from would be her grandfather. and his skills and GP are lower than hers so I honestly just don't have an option at this point. I'm not sure if you're able to publicly ask for reserved coverings, but again its hard to find a good stud to cover my mare at this point without asking.

    If anyone has somewhere to direct me in the right direction or if I have found the right place, I'd love to make connections so I can continue my NIB journey and produce more skillers.

    Thank you all in advance! my inbox is open (:

    Are you sure you're looking for an original foundie and not the new foundies? Looks like you have the newer ones with the higher GP.

    The people who breed RG TBs would be ⊰ Del ⊱, eruraven, Nyghtraven, Time’s Reign default smiley :) One of them might be able to help you out with a covering!
