[center][size=6]May 3, 2021: Challenge is now CLOSED since eye system was fixed.[/size]

The object of this challenge:
Take two Primal eye dragons who are unrelated to each other and can breed. Breed them, and keep breeding them until you get a Primal eye dragon. That Primal eye dragon, born of two Primal eye parents, is a "pure" Primal.
Sound simple? Not really. As you know, RNG is fickle. It can take months, even years, to breed an offspring with the desired eye type.
[b]Hard mode:[/b] When the "pure" Primal dragon has been born, retire the parents (in this case, to my den), and begin breeding with another Primal eye dragon until they have a Primal eye offspring. Do this for multiple generations, or until you lose your last thread of sanity.
Let the games begin!

[b]Jon, why are you doing this? You loco, ése.[/b]
Unlike my other challenges (for example, [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/2944370/1]breeding for a very specific color combination I want[/url]), I am doing this less for entertainment and more as a demonstration.
I won't rehash the eyepocalypse on this thread (and I ask respectfully if you comment here please don't either, because I don't want mods shutting this thread down), except to say that I'm doing this project to illustrate what's wrong with the eye system. I don't, actually, [i]need[/i] a Primal dragon (I do collect them, but I don't have a Primal dream dragon), so I have less invested in this than other people trying to breed for Primals. But I still thought I would show how long it can take to "just breed for it" if you're trying to get specific eyes, and hopefully the devs can see threads like this and maybe fix the eye system someday.
In the event that the eye system gets fixed, I will be abandoning this project. Until that time... let's scream together!

Each Primal eye. A Ridgeback and a Snapper have a 20-day cooldown, so I'll be able to breed once a month. They have a really [s]horrible, those are going to be some ugly babies[/s] interesting color range, so it'll be a [s]nightmare[/s] unique experience to see what each nest produces!

Dare I continue once the "pure" Primal hatchling has been born? Am I this into torturing myself? If I do, the link to Pure Primal 2: Frozen Boogaloo will be here in this post.

Claim List:
On the odd chance anyone would like to buy a hatchling from Onyx and Ruby that does not have the Primal eye type (for example, the interesting lore that could result from a Multi-gaze child of two Primal parents), and you don't feel like getting pinged for every hatch, simply say something like "I'm potentially interested in a Multi-gaze from this challenge" and you'll get pinged if I hatch one. Prices are negotiable but I would want above fodder price for another special eye type.
NOTE: I yeet off Goat and Faceted hatchlings if I hatch them because I can't stand looking at them. If you want this eye type I cannot accommodate you, I'm sorry.
