Posted March 31, 2014 I did it!!! I finally finished my 9th gen purebred skywing personal lineage! I got my very first dragon for the lineage, Adenine Helix, on Oct 26 2010 and here I am nearly three and a half years later with the soon-to-be-named Ninth Helix (yes pretty much all of this was to make that one joke). There's a bunch I still need cool gene names for, but I don't think I'll be able to get to it until the semester's over. Aah, so excited! Not to be outdone, I've already started a new lineage, though it'll be much shorter I imagine since I chose to make it a spiral instead of even gen. First skywings, next nhiostrifes!

Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) My this year's white x holiday chunk! I'm pretty excited! It's this year's version of my personal project, to be bred to last year's version. very pretty! I do love the whites and holidays like that I'd love to do one with all the holidays, but I don't have all CB's, so probably can't unless I get lucky somewhere. helix9 - awesomely amazing !!! that's a long time to work on a lineage, I'm glad it worked out for you and of course, I forgot why I came to the thread I wanted to mention that the hubby has managed, this week, to re-breed one of the whites that refused twice on his nebula/ice/white lineage. Please send some good wishes his way for that to be accepted by its intended mate. Also, his 2 ices that refused on a different lineage - he has managed to re-breed one of them, also yesterday. He needs some good wishes for that, also. I can't remember if I mentioned that refusal, because it happened around the same time as the second whites refusal. If these two dingbats hadn't refused: http://www.coup-detat.info/NDER/Lineage.ph...e%5Bborder%5D=n It took forever to get the female side of this, and yesterday he re-bred the male side and the female side again gave nothing, and he says...never mind, it's annoying But he will pay for it.

Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) Thanks everyone I FINALLY got THESE TWO!! Let's hope for the same cooperation between them AND THESE TWO!! Is anyone else here doing these 2 checkers? I'd love to work out swaps with someone. Edited March 31, 2014 by dragonsrus Share this post Link to post
Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) http://dragcave.net/lineage/t8NxK I'm probably going to be stuck at this stage for a while. D: And a 3rd gen relative needs a home Claim my eggs/hatchlings! Edited April 1, 2014 by DarkEternity Share this post Link to post
Posted April 1, 2014 @dragonsrus: I should be able to breed a Gen4 Silver X Tan Ridgewing assuming these guys like each other. Although that might be a bit farther along than you are at the moment. I can't breed lower gens; these were lucky breaks. But let me know if you do want a Gen4. >.< @DarkEternity: Wow, shiny! Congrats. x3 And thank you very much for the Gen3. <3 _____________________________________________ *crosses fingers* All of my Coppers went on strike so I had to get one from someone else. I'm not sure what this will end up looking like for real, but I need to try it out before I get more ideas. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) @dragonsrus: I`m working on the same male Silver x tan Ridgewing lineage and would be very interested in a future swap - I already have two 2nd gen Silvers but I still have to breed/trade for a 2nd gen tan Ridgewing before I can breed a 3rd gen myself though... EDIT: Also it`s time to show my evengen PB Black lineage - now that I have finally reached 7th gen: http://dragcave.net/lineage/W22DR Edited April 1, 2014 by Kelan Share this post Link to post
Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) @dragonrus, I can't help you with that, but just have to say it: they're pretty Looks really pretty I guess I'm going to start something like that when I finish my magma x moonstone lineage. Edit: may I ask for some green vibes, please? Squee! They refused. Of course. Rebreeding crimson. Edited April 1, 2014 by irercha Share this post Link to post
Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) @ dragonsrus & DarkEternity - Oh wows, hyperventilation and then sighs of jealousity..... those even gen prizes are gorgeous! Dragonsrus, I haven't done either of those lines yet. Very remiss of me lol They are very pretty. I've decided that red dorsals are far more uncooperative than the dreaded nebs - 1 in the last several months, out of, lordy, I don't know how many.... Edit: I have a spare 4th gen male silver/verdigris if anyone is looking for one. PM. http://dragcave.net/lineage/rokSG Edited April 1, 2014 by Shamiir Share this post Link to post
Posted April 2, 2014 I'm back to this project after years and one half is done Share this post Link to post
Posted April 2, 2014 I'm so excited my final piece of the Hybrid Shimmerkin project was laid Now hopefully I can do this to get a bluna mate for her. This has been one of the hardest projects for me and hopefully all dragons will cooperate. I would love to get some feedback on this one. I'm wondering if I should try to continue this with Geodes, Ultraviolet & colored stripes or just leave it as done when I get to 5th gen... Share this post Link to post
Posted April 3, 2014 One of my Rosebud x Spring pairs gave me a 3rd gen, but the other pair refused The good thing is I'll need a Rosebud from them and the refuse is turned off during the holidays, so that means I don't need to look for replacement, right? Share this post Link to post

Sending good vibes for co-operation. And I think I would just leave it at the 5th gen until we get more true hybrids to add another generation. edited to add: I agree with TCA -- good idea to get started on the Geodes and UVs, just hold off on the Stripes.

I'd start on Geodes and Ultraviolets if you can but not do colored stripes, wait until there are more real hybrids to finish. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 3, 2014 Thanks purplehaze and TCA for your input. I was thinking of trying to work on UV and Geode too. I'm glad there are more cb prize dragons out there but it seems like it's still pretty hard to get 2nd gen shiny or fail now. Does anyone here own 2nd gen pebble, stone, purple or spitfire shimmerfails? I was thinking the Purple & Spitfire would be nice with gold shimmers and I know there are lines for both of those out there but I'm curious if there were any fails produced.

Posted April 4, 2014 FINALLYYYYY I have completed my rainbow even-gen project, started around Nov 2, 2013. Almost all the dragons (except the olive pair) are owned by me. I am making an alternate set with different combinations of the base quadrants. Also always happy to trade even-gens with anybody! Rainbow Lineage egg!! Share this post Link to post
Posted April 4, 2014 I had hoped that I might get the"other" breed as ratios seem to have evened out a bit---- but pretty none the less. Seragamma x Brown Copper Balloon x Bleeding moon Share this post Link to post
Posted April 4, 2014 Nicely done, you two This probably should be posted in the "stupid things" thread, but here I am anyway. I had planned a pretty Soulpeace lineage, with purple,because I think they go perfectly with purple. I'd desperately hoped for a consolation prize so I could get a CB SP, but no deal Anyway, it took a while but I finally figured something out that I think I'll like. Used someone's 5-gen chart that I believe I got the link to here or in one of the other threads, anyway. So, my friend and I are happily breeding dragons (she has a lot of SP) and getting what I want pretty much first try, and then disaster - a 4th gen SP she bred for me bucked influence! Fortunately, I found a home for the little darling. Then, in looking at the "plan" while pm'ing with the recipient, I realized: I made a mistake and needed to breed the 3rd gen father! Now, the father used was already existing on my friend's scroll. In fact, she'd gifted out a couple of 4th gens already. So no time wasted but for the one breeding, OK, just not as easy-peasy as we thought. Then, in the re-breed, I managed to stupidly (and you thought using the wrong father was the stupid part ) auto-abandon a 2nd gen SP. I'm not even going to try to get it this weekend. The hubby has a 2nd gen SP that's what I need, and I've sent him the egg for the mate, and we'll see what we see. Gotta say, when things seem to be going too well - they usually are! But it's gonna be sooo purty!!!! Share this post Link to post

Posted April 4, 2014 Deb, I would love to see what you do with your SPs when it is done. I am working on a SP x HH lineage. I think I got that idea here, too. This is half of what I have planned right now. The other half has been a bit more stubborn. I may take it out another generation later. Share this post Link to post

This is half of what I have planned right now. The other half has been a bit more stubborn. I may take it out another generation later. oooohhhh pretty! I actually got the idea on my own - it's probably the only one, where I wasn't led or instigated or saw something or anything. Like, now I want to do yours, too, because I've seen it I thought I would post when I got one half done. I only started at the end of last week, but had many already available, so it's going well, except for this little boo-boo, because I could have had a second gen ready to breed, and now I have to wait. I'm confident there will be a new release this weekend, because why wouldn't there be? So I'm going to try and resist any more breeding, looking through the AP, etc. Gonna be hard....or impossible didn't last even one night but, only 1 egg to keep - because apparently when one breeds purples and Soulpeaces, SP wins every time Edited April 4, 2014 by daba555 Share this post Link to post
