Yellow Undine theories!

[Willow_Whispers]

I did this breeding on August 10th and it produced a green.

My PB turned green: http://dragcave.net/lineage/xD0Q0

Maybe yellow or green is randomly selected when bred?

My first two were yellow, but the next 3 hatchies are green.

I think so...What I've seen so far, it looks randomly selected.

 

My other undies bred no egg or the wrong egg, so I gotta wait until next week to try a yellow undie again.

We see how this little guy goes

Alright, jumping in with a CB Bronze Prize dragon to add to the mixing pot of theories.

 

I bred:

 

Bronze Prize x Undine = Undine Egg

 

Thunder x Undine = Refusal

 

Red Copper x Undine = Undine Egg

 

Turpentine x Undine = No Egg

 

Guardian of Nature x Undine = Undine Egg

 

Guardian of Nature x Undine = Undine Egg

 

All dragons bred were CB, I bred three female Undines and three male Undines. 3 of them are Forest, three are Mountain and the Red Copper was Mountain as well when I bred him to a Mountain Undine female.

 

Curious to see what exactly it takes to get these yellow Undines.

I have results now that all my eggs have hatched. I bred the rest of my CB Undines once they matured, so more than the ones listed in my original post. All dragons used were CB and I had 10 Undines; 5 male, 5 female, equally split between Forest and Mountain.

 

2nd gen Yellow Undines:

• Bronze Prize x Undine
• Red Copper x Undine
• Turpentine x Undine
• Lumina x Undine

2nd gen Green Undines:

• Guardian of Nature x Undine
• Guardian of Nature x Undine
• Speckle-Throated x Undine

Waiting for cool-down before I breed my CB Undines again. Hopefully get a nice even set of yellow Undines for my scroll. Edited August 13, 2014 by Taintedtamer

Got this from the AP, which obligingly decided to be yellow so I froze it.

I like this one.

Pretty! But are you hoping for a green or a yellow?

[edwardelricfreak]

imo it would look better as a green. Maybe even as a female?

[Tabitah]

hm... I got a silver x undine and got a green undine, I saw here in the thread the same combination but with a yellow one as result...

 

but I saw all undine x yellow dragons (brime stone, golden wyvern, gold etc. are going to be yellow, or is there any green one out of that pairing?) Has anybody breed to turpentine yet or other yellow/golden colored dragons?

 

 

[Misha]

Bleugh. I'm confused on the Undine x Undine breedings. Mine first produced yellows and are now producing greens. Are there any other methods of producing the yellows? i.e. other breeds? Or is is just a crap shoot? I want more yellows but no luck after my initial ones.

I don't think it's a specific pairing. It seems random.

As above, it's apparently random, the yellows just needed to play catch up ratio-wise. It's assumed that they are simply breeding-only alts like Blacks and Vines.

 

There's no formula for producing them. You still might have better luck right now, though, as though greens are starting to show, I think yellows are still a bit common.

It is all based on luck. Now since ratios are coming back they should be like Alt Blacks and Alt Vines.

[VictorianVivian]

All of my first (bred) batch hatched yellow. Waiting to see what happens with round 2!

[Tabitah]

hm...are you sure about the luck theorie?

 

then I have bad luck

 

First round no yellow ones......

Very sure about the luck theory. You have to have Very good luck to win the raffle. Most of the things in Dragcave involves luck. Either luck or if ratios need to even out.

 

Hopefully my 2 2nd gen. Eggs hatch at least 1 yellow

[danicast]

It IS matter of luck. It seems to be completely random (of course, we are getting a lot of yellows probably because of the current ratios) but I've been following how many yellows my friends are getting and which pairs they are breeding and my final conclusion is: it's totally random. Enjoy the alt lottery.

So far, I've seen 2nd gen PB Undines, and yellows with these parents:

- Red

- Bright Pink

- Brimstone

- Falconiform Wyvern

- Black

- Water

 

so far, I don't see much of a connection.

[Suzumiya]

My luck is absolutely VILE. There is no other word for it. Not one of my own eggs hatched yellow. NOT ONE! I knew when I first bred them that this would happen, I was just praying to the DC gods that at least one of my "batch" ended up yellow.

There is no connection. Everything is just random. You get green or yellow randomly.

 

 

Found 2 Undines in the AP both 2nd gen. and both Green. No Yellow

I tried breeding yellows with the following combos:

 

PB

Frostbite

Moonstone

Falconiform

 

Of the four pairings, the only one that turned out yellow was the Undine X Frostbite pairing.

If you want to make a list you can add these that I saw amongst my friends:

 

- gold

- tan ridgewing

- blusang

- green copper

- Swallowtail

- white

- black

- Seragamma

- water

- Blacktip

- black tea

- Imperial Fleshcrownes

 

and that's why I think yellows are random.

[Fiona]

Add shadow walkers and red coppers to that. And tsunamis.

 

From the pattern we're seeing I'm pretty sure that yellow undines are like black and vine alts. You have a certain chance of getting a yellow no matter what the breeding, as long as it's not CB.

[Sirithiliel]

THis'll probably be a very hard lineage to continue, but I'm thinking an alternating stair step so i'll happily have this one hatch green http://dragcave.net/lineage/neQw3
