most of my cherry veilspuns are on the positive side of their primary, so this one will be a good addition even though it's a 7-away.

happy flameforger's!
i like how unique the desgins of each deity are and i'm glad we're getting to see that highlighted with this familiar series. i also enjoy the chibification of them, the statues are quite cute.
i like the apparel this month too, but it's pretty bulky and grey. i don't have any dragons that i think particularly suit it.
my spare inventory crate gave me a surgestream coat. i'm not interested in putting my dragons in it, but i'll wait a week and see what happens to the price of it. with my prismatic token i bought the next familiar in the line.

i need to work on scrying a better mate for him, i really like the way he looks but his hatchlings are always so uninspired.

hatching two cherry nests today, a 1-egg and a 3-egg.

although this baby has the watermelon primary we're looking for, he is still a 5-away, which isn't much better than his 6-away parents, and we've already got several closer dragons in this bloodline. i'll be listing him and his father today.

the parents are a 4-away and a 1-away, and the chicks are respectively 3, 4, and 4. i like the bacon strip look of the pink bright on the first one, but i don't think i can keep any of these either because they share that same bloodline from the last nest.
in fact, i think i'll clear out several of my adults from that line today. i typically keep several adults from a single line so i can get more nests in even though only one can be part of the eventual dragon's gene pool, but it's getting superfluous and lair space is becoming more and more of an issue. i'm still learning about how to breed most efficiently so i'll keep this in mind as a lesson.
in other news, i got this from fiona today:

!!!!!!!! the first one !!!!!!!
i had to stare at him for like a minute confirming everything was right. the gender, all three genes, all three colors. my first project, done!! i'll noc him shortly, and then all that's left is to come up with a name.
i didn't keep a record of how many dragons were involved in this project (or how to define involvement, given there were many hatchlings that were auctioned and parallel bloodlines that didn't end up used) but it took about four and a half months. i'm so stoked, he's gonna look great.
i have plans for another project to make a mate for him with nearby colors so i may keep some of my crest dragons, but i'll be selling all the ones that are related to the result, which is most of them.
i don't have a lot of time right now so i'll make another post later today with familiars and stuff and update my main posts, but for now i'm just psyched that i got such a great result. [emoji=nocturne love size=1]

bit of a slow period right now but i'll have a couple nests to hatch tomorrow. also once my last batch of crest babies grows up and gets sold i'll have more space to get some new blood from the AH.

i love the look of the sanguine flecks, those are great. this baby is a 5-away, which is not stellar but better than his parents. i'll be holding onto him since lair space is becoming less of an issue.
next is a 3-egg ruby nest. as always, hoping for obelisks here.

well, dang. the first baby is a 2-away like his mother, but i don't think it does me much good. will have to keep breeding these parents cause i think they're a good combination, but i need to get luckier with the breed outcomes.
