Quests & Challenges

Starting today, I'm going to try to breed a dragon with Earthshaker's colors (stone/slate/brown) in time for RBC. Starting with this guy.

If the final dragon has genes as well, bonus!

The firstborn is the better candidate and heir! [quote=Second Generation Heir and mate][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=45870043] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/458701/45870043_350.png[/img] [/url] Will be searching for a mate today. 20kt budget, AH only. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=43416263] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/434163/43416263_350.png[/img] [/url] Mate! bought today 10/9/18 for 9kt [/quote] Heir and mate put on a nest 10/24; two eggs. [quote=Nest Two!][img]https://i.imgur.com/kk3tk2v.png[/img]male 46408052 stone/taupe/tangerine; female 46408053 latte/stone/dirt[/quote] Woops, forgot to take a picture of the hatched nest, lair view will have to do. I'm pretty happy with this hatch! Will choose the heir later today and then go looking for a 30kt budget mate.

[quote=Third Generation Heir and mate][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=46408053] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/464081/46408053_350.png[/img] [/url][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=45605045] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/456051/45605045_350.png[/img] [/url]Mate bought from AH 10/30/18 for 25kt, day late as he dropped off the AH for a bit. Could not find a good mate within budget for the first to hatch from the nest, so chose second-born.[/quote] Put on nest 11/13/18, three eggs; last nest before RBC [quote=Nest Three]So close! And I can't believe one of them hatched with *friggin Bee*. Won't make it to my RBC deadline, but I feel like this is a pretty good result nonetheless.

Have not yet chosen an heir or found a mate for this last generation. Partially, it's because I know I can't possibly hatch in time for RBC, but also what little poking I have done has resulted in no suitable mates anyway. So, I'll go forward next week with a mate search. Second-hatched with Bee wings will likely be the heir as it was so incredibly unlikely that bee would come through.

[quote=Fourth Generation Heir and Mate] While the firstborn from the previous nest was *slightly* overall closer to Earthshaker's colors, the middle child had one color matched (stone) and [i]Bee[/i], so they are the heir! [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=46967561] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/469676/46967561_350.png[/img] [/url] And their mate, picked up from the AH today (25kt of 40kt budget) from the incomparable PerryDotto! [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=47167835] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/471679/47167835_350.png[/img] [/url] His name is Beardsley, and he already matches the Earthshaker's colors[/quote] [s]Will nest these kids when they are ready which will be in 19 days. Well past my RBC goal, but still worth trying. [/s] Put on nest 12/18, three eggs! [quote=Nest Four][img]https://i.imgur.com/MOXEmi2.png[/img][/quote] SO close!!! The guardian is [i]one off[/i] Earthshaker colors at stone/slate/ginger. She will be the heir, and as a bonus, she picked up a primary gene! Will look for a mate soon, 50kt budget.

[quote=Fifth Generation Heir and Mate][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=47884589] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/478846/47884589_350.png[/img] [/url] [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=48092822] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/480929/48092822_350.png[/img] [/url] Mate bought for 15kt. Had a little trouble finding a male in the right color range that passed the bloodline assay. 20% probability of getting the correct colors in an average nest. [/quote] Put on nest 1/14/19; three eggs. [quote=Nest Five][img]https://i.imgur.com/kZCUiKI.png[/img][/quote] Well, dang. Nearest match is now two off instead of one with the Stone/Slate/Auburn guardian male, who will be the heir. Will start looking for a mate this coming week, 60kt budget.

[quote=Sixth Generation Heir and Mate to follow][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=48671966] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/486720/48671966_350.png[/img] [/url] [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=48755977] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/487560/48755977_350.png[/img] [/url] Mate bought for 12kt on 1/28/19 [/quote] [quote=Nest six] Three eggs. Three hatchies. Still a miss. [img]https://i.imgur.com/9yggehQ.png[/img] [/quote] Will decide on the heir later. 70kt budget for mate.

Kind of frustrated being off by one or two for a few nests in a row. If I do choose a mate for this heir, it will probably be the last generation regardless of outcome. Might even breed the pair a few times.

[quote=Seventh and Final Generation] Regardless of the first nest outcome, this is going to be the final pair. Heir [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=49272979] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/492730/49272979_350.png[/img] [/url] Bucket (because who am I to deny the random name generator its whims) [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=48913994] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/489140/48913994_350.png[/img] [/url] Might even give Heir a tertiary gene and keep going until I get some rare eyes. Will see! Update: Gave Heir peacock, mated her with an Earthshaker coloration mate. 50/50 chance of getting the correct colors.[/quote] Improbably, both of the two hatchies were Snappers. Also improbably, neither had a brown tert. They both had chocolate. So, this is closing out the Legacy project, because I'm just tired of losing a literal coin flip. Will keep breeding this pair. ETA (April 2): The improbable nest happened AGAIN. Two more eggs. Both snaps. Both chocolate tert. *throws hands in air* ETFA (April 23): Three egg nest; two guardians with chocolate tert and a snapper with brown. So, goal finally reached, but this is the snap happiest couple I've ever seen.
