Gemshard Colour Ratios

[dancing_serpent]

How did it turn out for you? I caught quite a few Gemshards, but so far Red is definitely the minority on my scroll. This is how it looks for me:

Blue 9
Green 8
Red 2

I still have four unhatched eggs on my scroll, but by now I have started offering on colour swap trades to even out the result.

I got really lucky. Out of my initial 12 Gems, I got 4 Blues, 5 Greens, and 3 Reds. I only had to swap two (Blue male for Blue female, Green male for Red female) to get 2 pairs of each color. Then I grabbed one extra, which turned out to be Blue. So I'm pretty much done collecting Gemshards.

I saw someone else mention that Red seemed to be the least common color. But then someone else popped up and said they had way more Reds than anything else. So I don't know if it was coincidence, or if Red really is slightly less common. But there seem to be plenty of everything to go around. I had no trouble trading my extra Green for a Red.

So far I didn't need a gender swap for any colour, so I'm quite happy with that.

Yeah, I saw that on the forum, and plenty of people saying oh no, not Red again. There are also lots of trades, so I'm not nervous about that. But yeah, seeing those comments and my own scroll experience was what made me do this post. I'm simply curious. *g*
