Inspired by @Festivoog and because I'm a glutton for punishment I said to myself, 'Hey! That looks like fun! I want to do a basic to rare challenge! And I have this great G1 Tundra awaiting genes!"
So of course I chucked her on a nest with another basic times three. Should have probably made him a G1 too...
...oh well.
This is a personal challenge so I'm tweaking the rules a little bit from Festivoog's!
Since my dergs laid a three egg nest I'll also take the challenge along three bloodlines. The goal is to get a descendent of all three kids to rare/rare/rare genes, three different breeds, different color combos, and different gene combos.
So let's meet the parents!
Mistral was an unbelievably lucky hatch from an egg I found, teal/cherry/teal! I knew she was something special so I've hung onto her, but only just now decided on at least primary and secondary genes. This will be her only basic/basic/basic group of hatchlings.
Cadogan was the lucky winner to be the father of this insane bloodline, because he was triple basic, ready to breed, and had pretty colors. Maybe not that olive basic, but hey, it'll widen the color options. He was also a Mirror and I have a soft spot for them. I also liked his name, so bonus.

You're doing the triple bloodline challenge too? That's awesome! It's a little chaotic if all 3 nests have a ton of eggs but it keeps things exciting if you get a wegg. Good luck and I hope you don't have 7+ generations of the same cruddy gene sticking around!
Can I be added to the pinglist?

@Festivoog, I am! I was hoping for a two egg nest to just do a double challenge, but RNG gave three sooo....
I'm not even going to risk a Lionfish 7 gen run. Avoiding that gene at all costs lol.
Anyway here are the three heirs! They actually got decent color combos which seems like a good sign. They'll be RTB on March 16th so I'll pick their mates closer to then, I'm using all my space on fodder for NvP right now.

Grape/Cherry/Hunter
Purple is my favorite color (obvy I'm in Shadow) and also psyched for a Seafoam, I think it's so pretty so it's nice to get decent colors to start off with!
MORE TO COME! :D

AND THEY'RE HERE! THE NESTS!
Hurricane has been paired wth Xylit! She's a triple Orca Tundra with Speckle/Freckle/Thylacine. I love Thylacine and I love Orca so that's why I picked her.

They wegged me....
Next line is Dusk and Cloud. I'm obsessed with Obelisks, they weren't here before I took my hiatus and I love them. Purple is my favorite color and I like the pie/paint/peacock combo so he was a winner. It took him forever to be RTB so that's what the delay was. I did not plan this well.

...They also wegged me. THANKS GUYS.
Eclipse got this pretty Pearl, Glimmer. I was browsing Thylacine still because I couldn't find a Contour dragon I like and I have this vendetta against Underbelly for some reason. His colors don't really match, but it's fine, he's pretty.

They laid two eggs, so slightly better than Eclipse's siblings.
Nests hatch on April 13th. See you then!

Mistral's new genes look great! Bummer on the weggs, though. But who knows, they might be total winners! It's hard to lose with thylacine.

@Festivoog, thanks! I love flair/flaunt and I've been agonizing over Mistral's genes for YEARS now lol.
The kiddos are here! One eh, one fail, but one winner!
The Eclipse line gave us these two:
[url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/77331040][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/773311/77331040_350.png[/img][/url]
Red Basic ~ Eldritch Basic ~ Iris Thylacine!

Cherry Basic ~ Ice Basic ~ Teal Basic
Sorry kid, you have your grandma's colors which is cool, but your brother has the gene so he wins.
Dusk's line gave us:
[url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/77336413][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/773365/77336413_350.png[/img][/url]
Violet Basic ~ Shadow Basic ~ Abyss Basic
I got really excited when I saw the Violet then realized it's just weird looking as basic on Tundras and not Fade... and also there was no Fade on either parent anyway. Oh well. Onto the next gen. You win by default.
It is okay thought, because Hurricane's line stole all the luck and gave me this!

Indigo Speckle ~ Mulberry Freckle ~ Shale Thylacine
Triple genes on the first try! She doesn't even look bad as an adult.

That first red/eld/iris thylacine kid is cute! Good start for a triple challenge. :)

Here we go! Gen 3!
First up we have the Eclipse line with Stripes and Raisa who I bought because she had the right level of genes and was very pretty in pink. They wegged me which is about how my fodder nests have been going so I'm not surprised.

Next is Vio of the Dusk line who refused to have any genes last time. She has this eyeburner mate, Imp, because years later I continue to be obsessed with radioactive. They gave us three eggs.

Finally Twyla of the Hurricane line and Zrozin. I have this thing about Spirals with Ghost and I'm surprisingly a big fan of morph, surpring to me anyway because I HATE snakes. They have nice matchy colors so let's see what we get. They also gave me three eggs.
