When I look at an egg on there now it says it was laid yesterday, but has 5 days 3 hours left. How does that happen? If the person had kept it it would have 6 days 3 hours left, wouldn't it? Does it automatically go down a day upon being abandoned, does it go down more over time, something else? I checked another egg of slightly less time in the AP and it was born on the 14th, so the ones currently in the AP were made very early on the 15th. Between the beginning of the 15th and the end of the 16th (or the beginning of one day and the end of another), that's 47 hours and 59 minutes, so nearly 2 days. The AP doesn't change any times on eggs; what you see is exactly what time it has left. People don't really know when the eggs will show up in the AP because the current visible hours can change drastically due to walls or breeding droughts, so I'd assume they'd just track the egg's page and check every once in a while to see if it's getting close or not.

Does it automatically go down a day upon being abandoned, does it go down more over time, something else? No. The timer no longer adds or removes an hour. What you see is now always the actual time left wherever the egg is. So you check when you bred and compare that to the AP times and hope you're in the right place at the right time.

Posted October 17, 2019 I usually temporarily bookmark the egg I am looking for. Then it is easy to check its time against the eggs in the AP. You still need to check pretty often because the rate that eggs move in the AP can vary widely depending on the eggs that are there and the number of people hunting. Share this post Link to post

Frankly, I've just never tried to zombify newer breeds, except for zyus, and those always went western even though they were wingless/lundwyrm etc, so I thought maybe newer breeds have some glitches, that prevent them from acting like older breeds, instead of wasting kill slots on rifts, figured I'd better ask around Share this post Link to post

Other single new breeds should not have that problem. Edit: I just checked the encyclopedia and they are just listed as "dragon" under their type.

Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) Is it just me, or are adult Yulebuck sprites not showing up on scrolls? I'm trying to name my backlog of unnamed dragons, and I'd like to be able to see whom I am naming. XP (granted, it may be a while before I get to Yulebucks, but still...)

If you have adblock then it's blocking them because of the "ad" in their image name. This happens once in a while because the image names are frequently randomized. Share this post Link to post

Still not seeing ads though, oddly, but I'm not complaining. XP Share this post Link to post

Posted October 21, 2019 I have a question about sorting my dragons. I am thinking about sorting either breed sort or rainbow sort and wanted to know if the dragons are sorted in order of cb, then 2nd gens and so on? Any help is appreciated as I have way too many dragons to manually sort now. Share this post Link to post

They are regular wyrm dragons, nothing special that would stop them from being zombified (the way unbreedables can't, for example). a bit late, but it's "non-dragons" that can't be zombies (chickens and dinos) not unbreedables. both papers and cheese can become zombies, giving an ungendered adult. Sadly, both westerns, even though papers shouldn't be. Cheese https://dragcave.net/view/dee6u Paper https://dragcave.net/view/C4d7w Edit: @Ruby Eyes o.O well then I have no idea what Dee6u was then, I know it's not another paper and nothing else has no gender as adults (except neglecteds but I've only ever had one of those on my scroll and still have it.) also shows as female on her page...but not on my scroll so weird. now I have to resort my scroll and hunt "her" down.
