Simplified Hatchery Guide!

Introduction
c1Mv73h.png
So you want to start a hatchery. Hatcheries require a lot of time and effort, but it is quite worth it! Breeding dragons and the excitement of seeing what will hatch and seeing that they don't immediately get exalted (well, most of the time, once the dragon is theirs, can't do much can ya :/) is super fun!
Why am I qualified?
--I have done my research and have taken weeks into working on my hatchery before putting it up on forums. I also think my hatchery is quite successful, but that's for other people to judge!

Formatting Of your Hatchery
c1Mv73h.png
You have complete freedom to be creative!

--Keep in mind, each hatchery has their own style! No one hatchery will be exactly the same. Use this freedom to get creative! There is a lot of free resources to make your hatchery pop and be more eye appealing!
--But also make sure to follow Flight Rising's rules! :)

Choose a theme and stick with it!
--Each hatchery has a different theme! Make sure your graphics and pixels stick with it. You'll just confuse the customers and potential customers.

Paying for Graphics and Art for your Hatchery is great (and encouraged)
--Though art and graphics are quite expensive (depending on the seller), customized pieces for your hatchery attract customers! They really increase the success in your hatchery.
See more on Advertising

Don't overload on the formatting, graphics and pixels!
--While these aspects are fun, only when they interfere with crucial knowledge is when it's too much. Also, try not to have crazy graphics near something the customer needs to read. It's distracting and kind of annoying.

On the other side, make sure to have just enough of graphics, art, etc!
--To little will make your hatchery flat and boring. And no one really wants to scroll through a post with nothing but just words. Pictures are pleasing to look at!

Use the formatting in Flight Rising to make different effects
--A great example of this is when I bold the title of each bit above. Your eyes immediately dart to the pronounced, more visible title.
For example:
  • This is important!
  • This is important!
  • This is important!
  • This is important
Each different format gave a different effect, didn't it? Use this to your benefit. Bold important parts of your hatchery. Underline things that they need to know. You'll find it makes your hatchery more easy to understand and cleaner!

Free to Use Resources
These are my personal favorite resources. There are plenty other resources that you can look.

Art and Graphics are good for advertising!

Welcome Page of your Hatchery
(Introduction)
c1Mv73h.png


People want to know you!
-- It's always great to know a little more about the seller! We want to know about your personality. It's fun to know that we're buying dragons from a person, not just a stiff robot trying to make money. I definitely recommend putting a little simple note at the VERY beginning of your introduction, stating who you are and why you started a hatchery. Feel free to put other information. Some hatcheries put a little narrative of you entering the hatchery. It's very entertaining to read and gives a personable feel to the hatchery!


This is the place to put the "General Rules".
--This is where you put the rules that apply to your whole hatchery! Stick to your rules, don't let anyone infringe on them. They're there for a reason, to make you feel safe and in control!
An example of General Rules
  • 1. First come first serve
  • 2. Please be respectful
--Up above are the general two main rules of hatcheries. I personally ask my customers to name my dragons as a rule. But that's just me! Rules about payment can be here, I just like to think that these are the "golden-do-not-break" rules of the hatchery.



Make sure to put the info about Payment and Discounts (if you want to make discounts) here as well
--The "welcome" page is the place that your customers will first see! They need to know the crucial information.
--Tell your gem to treasure ratio.
--List your discount information (Affiliates: 10% etc.). Tell them how many discounts stack, if they do at all.
--Also, putting in your wishlist is a great thing as well! Tell them what they could get if they offer something from your wishlist.
--Another thing that is optional, is telling the customers how much the prices will be upped if the dragons have special-eyes. It's also a nice way to know your standards of special-eyes.
--You can put the information about the rules of payment in your "general rules" section. I just separated them because they're whole two different topics.

Notes Section: Optional
--Notes is a place to tell information that isn't necessarily crucial, but is good for them to know. Such as what elemental nests the dragonets will be hatched, how much hour ahead your time zone is from Flight Rising's, credits (if any) to the people who made your banner's and graphics.


Announcements Section
--This is the place where you post about things you want your customer's to know! Such as when you opened your hatchery, when a new breeding pair has been introduced, and if you'll be gone for a certain amount of time.

The Sales Page of your Hatchery
c1Mv73h.png
Make sure to put your Sales page right after the Introduction!
--That's what people are here for after all! They want to know what you offer and a general idea of what you could be selling. Leave the Breeding Pairs page and other matters AFTER the sales.


List important information about the dragon that you are selling
--What counts as important information? Things that are important factors when buying a dragon. Such as:
  • The name, if they have one
  • The gender
  • The flight from which their eyes are from
  • The price for the dragon
The price of a dragon can be a little hard for players to figure out. I'll go more in depth about that soon.


Pricing Dragons
--This is a dicey topic for many players. Some people price the dragon from their genes, eyes, and breed.
--You'll definitely want to price your dragon more than a fodder price to somewhat ensure their worth to the buyer and not get the dragon immediately exalted. A fodder price is 10,000kt or anything lower.
--Another thing to consider is to price how you feel your dragons are worth! Some people price their dragons a little lower because they want the newer players able to buy their dragons.
--Some hatcheries are where the customer's buy the dragon for however much they think the dragon is worth. If you are thinking you want to price your dragons this way, always include the lowest price you'll go for the dragon.



List the genes and/or colors of the dragon you are selling: optional
--Hatcheries sometimes list all the information about the dragon, so if a customer doesn't know what gene a dragon has (or color) they can immediately see what the dragon's genes and colors are. However, hatcheries that do this require a little more time and effort to run. It doesn't hinder your business, most customer's have a general idea of the genes, it's just a way to make your hatchery a little more organized.
--People use generators, or make their own sales cards to tie in with the aesthetics of their hatchery. I suggest not to pay for sales cards because, well, sales are always shifting and when you require services from someone, it's usually somewhat expensive. If you do have the talent of making your own sales cards, go ahead! It does mean you have to put more time into the hatchery.
--A popular sales card generator is this site, Flight Rising Tools


List what breeding pair your dragonet's came from: optional
--Hatcheries like to list what breeding pair the dragons came from, this way, you know that they are freshly bred from a breeding pair and not some random dragon they have. Also, this is optional. This doesn't hinder your business, it just gives it a little more of an organized look.

The Breeding Pairs of your Hatchery

Breed dragons that appeal to you
--What I'm saying is, if you think a dragon is pretty, find two dragons like it (or use the dragon you think is pretty) and breed them together! A hatchery is supposed to be fun. Breed dragons together that appeal to you!



What is a Breeding Card?
--A breeding card is the information that lists what two dragons will be breeding together, what their genes are, what their colors are and their breeds. A card can also list their names, if wanted. Usually the card lists the possibilities of what genes will be more probable as well as breeds.


Find a breeding card generator/maker
-- A breeding card can come in many shapes and sizes. For Example:

--Breeding cards can be found and made in many different ways.
--Some people make them. If you have the resources and talents, go right ahead! But making your own cards means more time you have to dedicate. But luckily, you only have to make these once if you plan on breeding the two dragons together for a long time!
--Hatcheries sometimes hire people to make them for them. Usually when people hire others, its when they want a graphic breeding card.
--And some people use generators to make them. Here are two famous generators that many hatcheries use.

What should be included along with the Breeding cards?
--There is much more that the costumer should know, and it's more for a convenience for you if you put the necessary information so you don't always have to answer the questions of the customer's.
Here is some information that the costumer's should know:
  • When the pair is going to breed next
  • The price range of the dragonets (optional, but a good thing to do)
  • The name of the breeding pair
  • What the dragon's hatchlings are going to look like

How to be an affiliate with someone
