OK, I'm confused now. I have a male Geode and female Guardian, and they will breed an egg or tell me "no interest". I finally got my desired pairing, a female Geode and a male Guardian, and I got the message that they refuse to go near each other. Now, I have the understanding that only certain pairings of dragons will not mate (like Split and anything else) and gender should not matter, but is there something here I should be worried about?

I had some misinformation up before, but... geodes will only produce with stones, pebbles, and other geodes. Anything else and they will refuse.

Really? I've gotten some eggs from my Geode X Guardian pair. Guardian only, though. Granted, I can't prove them because they all died, but it did happen. I know that there is some information of Geodes reproducing with Guardians up on the Dragon Cave forum breeding list area. Did they change something in the recent past?

OK, apparently, concerning my problem above, sometimes dragons just won't get along, thus they refuse to mate. So that's another dead dragon and another attempt. Here's the new egg. OUBQ.gif Drat. Thought I was finally done with that. Thanks.

It seems there are 5 new eggs out. Since I wasn't around whent hey were eggs (oops) I don't have the descriptions.

 

EDIT: Ok, went to a drop...

 

This egg is slimy and blue. (I think this is the one that has male/female differences)

This egg seems to be floating on a puddle. (Note: floating not sitting)

This egg has strange yellow stripes.

This egg appears to be covered in scales.

 

And I seem to be missing one...

 

EDIT2: It seemd egg #5 is another "strange markings" egg. Get um while they're hot?

Darn, I missed the whole egg unveiling too. I blame grad school. *shakes fist* It's really nice seeing all this work that TJ and the other fans are cranking out.

 

Oh, here's my new egg. Be female and like my Guardian, darnit! a3aN.gif

And I'm bored with my one project, so I'm gonna grab more eggs and do stuff. Here are some others.

I'm not going to worry about the new eggs and just take the nice ones from previous releases. I really like Guardian dragons. ^.^

I somewhat dislike the "view lineage" option for a personal reason. I know it's a really great tool. But it showed me how badly my Guardian, Lucius Savant, is inbred. On both sides. With a great-grandfather-grandfather-father deal going on. I feel bad because I know it doesn't really matter, and I finally got his description approved, but I'm thinking about killing him, raising another male Guardian, and giving that new one the same name and description. Is this too extreme, and could I get the exact same description again for another dragon if the first one goes the way of the dinosaur?

BTW, Anime, I LOVE your purple Dino. ^.^

You only have to wait a day before the egg slot isn't taken, and then only if it was killed by you. TIme outs and eggs past that are just there.

 

Possible... there's also the more humane, "Release" option that removes the name form the dragon without killing it. But it's totally up to you.

 

And thanks, silly thing fianlly grew up. xD

Updated the FAQ some. We have Water walkers (on a puddle), Waterhorses (blue), Horse dragons (purple), Neotropical (green), and Deep Sea dragons (scales).

Try using the ERs around the place for saving the eggs, such as eggswillbedragons.com and the related sites it links to. This should help save your dragons.

 

EDIT: Rar, more eggs! I'm going to create my "orphanage", and that will probably use only cave-born eggs since I guess some folks might be miffed about their lineage being halted with freezing.

And while it's not my egg, it was born from one of my dragons. Reinhilde's the kind of lady to want lots of kids around. And the fellow has it set to "accept aid", so I figure this is OK.

Ok, bad news...

 

Some idiot pointed out to our... dear... TJ09 that the water dragon descipt made more sense if they could breed with only waters and deep seas. So, without ANY warning (seriously, I went to breed one of my waterxgold couples and had no freakin clue why the water wasn't on my list) he changed it. Waters can breed with waters and water horses (but not deep seas. They can breed with anything but. Stupid, huh.).

 

My poor Arinia and Arane... People on the DC forums are really mad, there's gonna be (another) uprising if it's not changed back.

Yeah, I saw that bit as well. I can't say I'm particularly miffed on it, so I kinda don't see why it's bad since there are other restricted breeder pairs. Are there too many?

EDIT: Ohhh! Yeah. The older water dragons. Yeah. I totally get that now. Um, sorry. That does suck. I'm kinda happy I have a great-great-granddaughter from your pairing now. It's worth preserving.

RE-EDIT: I wish some of these guys would be more mature about it, though, especially towards the person who pointed it out to TJ09. There was no malicious intent, probably a simple inquiry, and it's not like s/he was changing stuff on his/her own. I do wish that TJ09 has said something first, though.
