Presents

[ragdoll]

I still have plent of mana left, so if you'd like a present, just let me know your scroll name, and I'll happily send one.

My scroll is ragdoll if you feel like reciprocating.

I can't believe how many hollies I managed to snag (most of them messy, but still...) The only way I could catch any was on my Kindle, but that worked really well.

I'm having fun with the presents because they're all so pretty, and I can't do much with breeding now. I was still hunting the AP, but had to go do some stuff, and when I came back tonight, TJ had released the non-Christmas eggs. They're now around day 3, when I first saw them, they were like 1+ day left. I was doing the same thing though: looking for lineages/pairings that seemed pretty or interesting. My mom still had some room on her scroll, so she was disappointed that she couldn't get any last eggs in. Unless something pops up again.

I found this one for my mom: http://dragcave.net/lineage/nJqTy

which is gorgeous, but I can't imagine she'll ever manage a mate for it. Unless it's a non-holly, non-gold mate. (I have 2 cb male golds, but that's it).

I found a few others which weren't too bad for myself. this one isn't so bad, and neither is this one (and it's a Thuwed -- I have another one that's from the same Xmas dragon, but it's a mess). This one was my last bit of luck: http://dragcave.net/lineage/vEq1P

Overall, I can't complain, and next year, I will be gifting progeny to people just because I can now. Yours sound so nice though. :) I couldn't have done it without my Kindle. I don't know why doing it that way would make it go faster esp since I have a pretty good connection, but I am not complaining.

Now all I need to find is my damn CB gold egg. :)

Oh, wow, that Gold x Holly checker is gorgeous! Let's see, once one of my new Snow Angels grows up, I'll be able to breed 4EG Gold x Snow Angel checker, that might make a decent mate. Or a 4EG Marrow x Gold checker. Hm. Oh! I've got the 2Gs to breed a 3EG Heartseeker x Gold checker -- if I do a Heartseeker swap on Valentines, I should be able to breed a 4EG Gold eventually. That would look pretty good, I think. Better if it was a 4EG Heartseeker, but I can't breed that until another year. Maybe one will turn up in the AP. Anyway, if you decide to try to breed something and need some help, or if you're interested in any of the above, let me know!

I'm really pleased with my haul of Holidays! I did eventually get three of each breed, except for Hollies, which I ended up with five. My final Ribbon Dancer was this one, who is going to be a mate for this Winter Magi I picked up last year. A lucky find at the very end!

Or, hey, how about a 4EG Gold x Pink checker with Bright Pink bases? Like this.

[ragdoll]

Oh man, that would be amazing! :) I'll have to see if I can start working on it, then begging and pleading for mates. Mom has no CB golds at all, so it'll be up to me. :)

If you like the Gold x Pink checker, I can breed you a 4th gen Gold. I've gotten a Pink from them but not a Gold so far, but I haven't really bred them very often. Anyway, we've got all year until next Christmas before she really needs it! I'd be happy to do it, I love to help pretty Even Gens get the mates they need to breed more pretties!

[ragdoll]

Yeah, that would be fantastic. I can try to breed my golds with pinks to help things along. I am so confused by breeding things on DC. I've been playing since 2008, but only recently really started to pay attention to breeding and patterns and such. I'm ok with simple stuff like stairs, but after that, I'm so confused. :)

[codyne]

Okay, I'll do that. I have the 3rd gen pair already, so all I need to do is breed them until they give me a Gold, and we're all set. I tried them the other day but got a Pink, so I'll just keep trying, and let you know when I get a Gold from them.

[ragdoll]

You're fantastic. My mom and I both appreciate it greatly! :)

[codyne]

No problem! It might take a while to get a Gold from them, but I'll keep trying. At least we've got plenty of time.

Got a gold egg for you! I'll PM you a transfer link.
