TOPIC | How do the Hatchery Forums work?
I can never tell how the Requesting eggs or buying of dragons from hatcheries through forums work. how do you know what eggs the currently have or don't have available? why do people keep saying bump all the time??? is it ok to just message the forum "hey i want to buy an egg from this pairing do you have any"????? I'm confused and i just want to buy an egg from some nice people.

First things first - welcome to FR!!! Second things second - questions like this usually go in the Help Center, which has a thread just for small questions if you ever need it! Third things third - here's some answers to your questions. <3

Eggs available? >>> Looking at the currently nesting pairs/hatchlings for sale section is your best bet to know what a hatchery has in stock at the moment. If there's a pair you're interested in, consider messaging the owner and getting on a pinglist to notify you when they're having more babies, or reserving a hatchling from an upcoming nest.

Bumping >>> Bumping is posting "bump" or another short message to a forum topic in order to move it up to the front page. This is useful for a hatchery, because they can bump when they have new hatchlings available and people scanning the sales threads will see them in the first page of topics.

Buying hatchlings >>> Go for it! See what people's preferred method of contact is in their thread and contact them by pinging or messaging them. <3 A lot of dragons are also listed on the AH at their sales price, so if you want you can often just buy the hatchling that way.

Just as a note, you can't buy eggs from hatcheries, only hatchlings and dragons. There are Unhatched Eggs, which you can buy on the AH or get from rare Coli drops, but those are a whole different thing.
