So I have this wild image - a beautiful, fiery tundra, but trapped in their hide turned to ice. I open the scry and... [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/scrying/predict?breed=6&gender=0&age=0&bodygene=7&body=131&winggene=25&wings=48&tertgene=14&tert=48&element=11&eyetype=6][img]http://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=0&body=131&bodygene=7&breed=6&element=11&eyetype=6&gender=0&tert=48&tertgene=14&winggene=25&wings=48&auth=e0e77082dc349919dba1543097a7f100571a010e&dummyext=prev.png[/img][/url] ...I'm in love. Runes are the best, fite me. I rush off to dragon search, to check if this miracle exists. The colors and eyes are enough, I have nothing to do with my life, I'll gene this bad boi with my own hands. [i][b]Nothing[/b][/i] Oh well then. I'll do it on my own. I'll breed the primal eyes myself. But there is a catch. [i]I need those exact colors[/i]. Orca, Fire, Fire - those words will appear in my dreams all week long. So I needed to make him parents, who will have Orca, Fire, Fire, with Crystal primary if possible. Let the hunt begin. There're exactly three dragons of Orca Fire Fire color scheme with Crystal primary: [columns][center][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/26316339][img]http://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/263164/26316339.png[/img][/url] Unnamed[/center][nextcol][center][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/45910531][img]http://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/459106/45910531.png[/img][/url] Ludivina[/center][nextcol][center][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/45910532][img]http://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/459106/45910532.png[/img][/url] Isa[/center][/columns] Three beautiful coatl girls. Isa and Ludivina are sisters and Unnamed is their niece. Not good. I removed the Crystal primary from search query and now there are 27 dragons. That's much better. Right? [i]Right?[/i] [url=https://i.imgur.com/rCpRy0n.png][img]https://i.imgur.com/rCpRy0n.png[/img][/url] [center][color=lightgray]Greyed out are either exalted or inactive[/color][/center] The ones that are in red circles showed up in that search. 20 dragons out of 27 are related. And I needed [i]two pairs[/i] to make me a breedable pair. [b]F U N[/b] The good part was that the bottom row (Fakhir, Torchwick, Flame, Firaga) were able to breed with left side, because FireQueen was their fifth-level link. Among the other seven dragons there were two more dragons, who were an uncle and niece to each other, and one gaoler with her kids. Clearly not enough. I widened the search parameter to include Moon - Silver primary range (that's five colors), but limited to Crystal only. 10 dragons showed up and they were mostly unrelated. Yay! The plan was drawn out. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=45910532]Isa[/url] would take on [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=40315724]Atlas[/url], O/F/F noct with Metallic primary, and [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=50830381]Torchwick[/url] (O/F/F wc with Wasp primary) would take in [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=50995813]Areskynna[/url] - spiral, with Moon/F/F and Crystal primary. The second pair had to make it count, the chances for required kid were 1 to 6. Messages to owners are sent, now we wait. Ha [i]Haha[/i] I forgot to check Torchwick and Areskynna. [img]https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/001/401/347/312.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/s1uPlLB.png[/img] But the messages were already sent, so I had to act quickly. Another glance on the genealogy says me that I have an alternative - [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=43216995]Fakhir[/url]. I send a message to Torchwick's owner with apologies and notify Areskynna's owner about a change of plans. That's better. I go to sleep. Next day, Fakhir's owner responds! She is very considerate and is ready to wait for the other's responses. Perfect! Torchwick's owner also responds and reassures me that eventually I'll succeed. I anxiously re-read all the messages sent yesterday and... I got wrong links in message to Areskynna's owner. Good job, me! I send them third message, sorrying all over the place about how much of a disgrace I am. [i]Ughhhh[/i] Day passes and Isa's owner replies. They are also ready to help and can send her to other nest when I'll ask. Phew. Two days pass and I start to panic. I casually stalked Atlas's and Areskynna's owners and at some point it seamed that they were feeding their dragons, while ignoring my messages. This is a perfect moment to come out that I'm on ADHD/Autistic spectrum and most of the time I can't comprehend what's happening around me. Of course I panicked. I had to search for alternatives. Areskynna's alternative was [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=42985690]Neriya[/url], The Fiery Woof, The Hot Girl with The Pearl. They were almost identical, but I was hesitant, 'cause Neriya's owner didn't feed their dragons [i]how dare you![/i] [b]Well, not everybody plays this game daily, be nice to people[/b] I thought to myself and sent them an offer and a bunch of food. Atlas's alternative was Silver/F/F nocturne with Crystal named [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=28791962]Zivis[/url]. This is lowering my odds to 1 of 3 from 1 of 2, but whatever, I need them alternatives! I notice that Zivis has extensive lore! After catching up on Hive dynamics and Zivis's betrayal, that ended up in him being turned in ice statue, I write an RP prompt, [i]cause i too have lore it's just not written down im so sorry uwu[/i]. And we wait. Guess who responds not a three hours later? Atlas's owner. The one, for whom I just found an alternative. [i]Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh[/i]. I casually reminded about myself to Areskynna's owner ([b]that's four unresponded messages[/b] I thought anxiously) and try to explain that I didn't want to buy Atlas, but borrow him for some time. That was the last time I heard from them. Less than hour later Zivis's owner responds with answer to my prompt! And it's masterfully written! Cue in around a day of roleplaying that lead to Issa being sent to Zivis for... prison break? I guess that's what we finished at. [i]We have a lift! One pair is breeding![/i] Two days later Areskynna's owner responds. Atlas all over again? [i]Better.[/i] We struck a deal and I bought her for 60 gems! Cause Crystal+Facet+Runes is a beautiful combo and I need more of them! I send cr to Fakhir's owner and we now have a second pair breeding! Remember Neriya? Her owner didn't forget! He immediately sent her to me, thanking for food. Uhm, I now have a spare dragon. In fact, I have [i]two spare dragons[/i]. Torchwick exists and he can breed with Neriya, 'cause she's an outsider! Sure, their kids won't be able to breed with kids from Fakhir/Areskynna, but Zivis/Isa are still far enough. Basically, I secured myself with higher chances for required gene/color pattern, cause both Torchwick/Neriya and Fakhir/Areskynna have 1 of 6 chance of giving O/F/F kid with Crystal (and for same reasons too), so by having two pairs I'll speed up this process to be the same as Zivis/Isa. I guess. I was good at math, but that was some time ago. Tell me about your affairs to create The Dragon that you dreamed of. I'll read it later, I have a salad to prepare. Edit - fixed some links
So I have this wild image - a beautiful, fiery tundra, but trapped in their hide turned to ice. I open the scry and...

...I'm in love. Runes are the best, fite me.

I rush off to dragon search, to check if this miracle exists. The colors and eyes are enough, I have nothing to do with my life, I'll gene this bad boi with my own hands.

Nothing

Oh well then. I'll do it on my own. I'll breed the primal eyes myself.

But there is a catch. I need those exact colors. Orca, Fire, Fire - those words will appear in my dreams all week long.

So I needed to make him parents, who will have Orca, Fire, Fire, with Crystal primary if possible. Let the hunt begin.

There're exactly three dragons of Orca Fire Fire color scheme with Crystal primary:

Three beautiful coatl girls. Isa and Ludivina are sisters and Unnamed is their niece. Not good. I removed the Crystal primary from search query and now there are 27 dragons. That's much better. Right? Right?

Woah. That was a wild read. I haven't had the need for breeding projects in a long time, but I had one a while ago for the dragon in my pfp. He's a fandragon and I needed those exact colors. I went into dragon search to see if there were any dragons that weren't exalted and had active owners. Before I started the project, there were five dragons total with the colors I needed (Marigold/Carrot/White). TOTAL. The only "active" one was in a dead lair and I was desperate.

I went to the ah with a fairly wide range of the colors I wanted. Buttercup-Sunset/Orange-Tangerine/Maize-Orca. The amount of dragons I searched in that range that were limited/rare breeds could fit in a single page. I found one girl that was one color away from the combo (sunshine/c/w) and I went through multiple fathers before I found one that fit her best by the time her initial 30 day cooldown was up. 1 in 16 chance, but those were my best chances.

Some five nests later, I found a new father that nearly doubled my chances. About 1 in 8 chance with a slight chance at hatching a Coatl instead. Sweet. Exalted the old father and went with the new father. Two, maybe three nests later and my boy arrived. Don't regret it in the slightest.

This is a long one, so strap in. A while ago, I came up with this scry, of a shale/shale/camo primal pearlie [img]http://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=177&bodygene=1&breed=4&element=10&eyetype=6&gender=1&tert=154&tertgene=21&winggene=1&wings=177&auth=d030e27fa08c4b6bce599d6a6ac1857b471305af&dummyext=prev.png[/img] The only problem was that no dragon had existed with shale/shale/camo (which is a shame because wow is it pretty). I gave up on it being a primal pretty quickly, since scattersights probably would be way too expensive, and since there were virtually no dragons who were close in colors, I knew that it'd be awhile until I got the right colors. Besides, she's pretty without primal. Anyways, I did some searching and found a male tundra named [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=403379&tab=dragon&did=47931584]Arty,[/url] who was flint/flint/camo and messaged the owner to see if I could borrow him for my project. They agreed, and sent him over. (Later I fell sorta in love with him, asked if I could buy him, and since the owner was actually pretty much leaving flight rising, they just let me keep him, so he's now a permanent part of the clan) I then went on the Auction House and saved a search for colors close to shale/shale/camo and bought my first dragon, [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/29405199]Nodulaz[/url]. I bred them a couple times before searching the AH again for dragons closer because already I was getting tired of this. (To get some context, I started this project Febuary 11th of this year, and only recently got the right colors) After a bit more stalking the AH, I found a dragon who was really, [i]really[/i] close, [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=49646818]Avari[/url], who is shale/shale/obsidian. Then, the process repeated. I bred her a couple times with Arty with zero sucess and then finally searched the auction house one last time and found a new dragon, [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/47444379]Lorelai[/url] and bred her with Arty. They had a 0.49% chance of getting the right colors and gender, and on their [i]very first nest[/i] and after 6-ish months I finally got the right colors, my baby Halka. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=54468396] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/544684/54468396_350.png[/img] [/url] Now, I'm trying to decide whether I want to continue to breed her with a male that's sort of close and has the right genes or if I want to maybe try and save up enough money for 3 gem genes. I'm thinking about breeding her, but yeah. That's my breeding story. Edit: @Riddles I will very gladly set up a thread with you about very dedicated and hard breeding projects.
