People seem to have trouble with this, so I figured I'd introduce this method of pricing that I personally use. This is sort of a hatchery-esque pricing idea. If I missed any factors lmk.

Thanks for doing this! Been looking for a while.

Some questions because I'm not great at this yet ^^'
Is there some guide on what gene is rare? What do you mean with "XYX, XXY, XYY"?

@TwistedKatiekat

It refers to the genes colour, so XXY would have 2 of the same colours, I'm not sure about the differences between them all, but they all share that 2 genes are the same colour.

@TwistedKatiekat

Here's a breed and gene rarity guide for you! This guide is kept up to date with the latest genes too so you'll always know what's what :)

As @WolvesLament said, XYZ, XYX, XXY, XYY and XXX refer to color patterns, here's a quick run down of what each one means:

XYZ means that each gene has a different color, none are the same, like these:
38790856.png38236350.png37866578.png40585810.png
XYX means that the Primary and Tertiary genes are the same color, like this:
41138699.png42505297.png
XXY means that the Primary and Secondary genes are the same color, like this:
38842718.png38806459.png37191928.png38758053.png
XYY means that the Secondary and Tertiary genes are the same color, like this:

XYX, XXY and XYY dragons are collectively referred to as 'doubles'.

XXX dragons are also called 'triples', all of their genes are the same color. Here are a few examples:

@EgoLobster Does "Rare eyes" also include the uncommon ones? What would you say Uncommon eyetype would be worth if not?
