Only one egg, found in Alpine and Forest biome:

This egg glows from within.

Ack! Well, at least it's only one egg and I have four slots open -- time to go hunting!

ETA: Well, that was relatively painless! Took about 10 minutes to get a pair from each biome, although other eggs were already mixing in a bit. Whew!

[dancing_serpent]

I tried my luck as soon as I noticed, which turned out to be only an hour after the initial release. For the first frustrating hour I didn't catch a thing, then at the next hourly drop I suddenly got all seven at once.

Caught and influenced a breeding pair from each biome so far; will try to catch one more each and let them gender naturally. Done!

[dancing_serpent]

I'm a bit bummed at the new release because I still haven't managed to get very far with the Xenowyrms. I so wasn't ready for a new breed already.

[kshandra]

I totally understand; I've only got breeding pairs for two of the variants, and I still don't have a CB Alpine.

I copletely missed this release (again) so I went into hyper catch mode... the eggs are all the same, no matter the biome, right? becuase I caught them all in forest right now.

[dancing_serpent]

The eggs are all the same, yes. I have no idea if that's true for the dragons, as well, though.

[novembermond]

well then I'll have to scour the alpine later on XD

As usual, I wasn't ready for this.

But by freezing a few hatchlings I managed to make room for six eggs and luckily, I was able to catch four in the Forest and two in the Alpine easily during the five minute drops~

[dancing_serpent]

I wasn't expecting it, either, but at least I was completely free - I'm still a bit meh because of the Xenowyrms and mostly kept away from Dragcave for the last week.

[nakuru]

I get it, ever since the Xenowyrms I have been focused of fulling my CB commons goal with AP eggs just to take a break until I get over the frustration of another so-rare-and-so-in-demand-that-it's-impossible-to-catch dragon.

Kind of figured it was coming, since this was the last weekend in July, so it was now or not at all. I've been keeping slots open on weekends for a few months now. I miss the old scheduled releases though.

These were easy to snap up. Got my 7 on back to back 5 min drops, 4 from one biome, 3 from another. Just looked at TJ's s2 babies and unless the adults change quite a bit, I won't be adding more.

[dancing_serpent]

I was almost convinced there wouldn't be a release in July, because the Xenowyrms were so many different types and so hard to catch.

Of course, I didn't get a notification from dragcave even though I am subscribed to the thread on the forums. To add insult to injury, the notification of your post went straight to the spam folder, so I didn't see it till I went to clear it in the evening.

I managed to catch 2 eggs from the Forest and 1 fom the Alpine biome last night and then 4 more from the Alpine biome this morning. I noticed that then (8am European Summer Time) mostly new eggs were falling in the Mountains but mainly old eggs were falling in the Forest. Never noticed something like that before.

[dancing_serpent]

Oh, that's interesting, because yesterday evening I saw it exactly the other way round. Mostly new eggs in the Forest, mostly old ones in the Alpine.
