2018-07-29 - July Dragon Release (Part 2)

[HeatherMarie]

Apparently cleaning my desk didn't take up as much time as I'd hoped (waiting for a dragon to come off cooldown to dump it). Being used to hunting the AP like 80% of the time, being locked with 6 or 7 day eggs is so hard! On the upside, my desk looks much nicer. Didn't find what I was actually looking for though. 

 

I'm curious about the spotted's wings, maybe it's just my eyes playing tricks but they look to have almost a glass-like texture, wonder if they are anything special/different or if it's just my eyes.

Liking these guys so far! The pygmies are like cute fat spoopy gremlinbirds with will o the wisp overtones, and the others are like glowy geckoes! Hope the adults continue to impress (and that the glowies have different poses)!

[Nightwalkerkey]

I really like their poses, I don't know how you guys aren't seeing it. Just some long limbs in their awkward teenage phase P: 

[Zinogre]

Didn't realize there was a new release, but I managed to get 6 eggs so far. Just need two more 'glowing in spots' eggs and I'm good.

[saltywench]

I am so excited! I was convinced the next release would be at the end of August but just in case I kept alllllll my egg slots open, hahahaha

WOOOOOOOOOOO

Thank you TJ, Thank you Spriters! New pygmy eggs, I'm so Happy!

 

Is there another Dino on the horizon? O_O

They look like glass to me too. The eggs are sorted between 'Si' and 'Sk', so 'stained glass' is out of the question.

Thank you for my 2nd pygmy name! I've now reserved 'Spoopy Gremlin Bird CB', hehe.

(Lol oh my gosh that's how I feel.)

I feel like there's less hype in this release, maybe because people weren't expecting it and don't know about it?

Also. Noob question; TJ's hatchies mean that the gem ones will have 1 adult each color, and pygmy will have m/f adult sprites?

Pretty much. Two eggs would be no dimorph, three is adult dimorph, four would be adult and hatchie dimorph, etc.

Yeah, this thread does seem pretty slow for a first-day new release. Just did some comparing, the July 1st release thread was 30+ pages by this time, so was the birthday release thread. On the other hand, April's release only had 16 pages total, so... I guess it fluctuates.

Just read the first four pages of the thread and wanted to let you guys know: there are the spotted ones in the Desert Biome as well, at least there are now. I don’t know if that will affect people’s theories on coloration? But I thought it might be helpful info... Sorry if someone else has already brought it up.

Edit: I just checked my egg, and it’s now changed to “Alpine” as its biome. I’m guessing that it was a mistake that I grabbed it from the Desert biome. (And no, I didn’t mix up the biomes. I am 100% sure I grabbed it from the Desert biome. 😅)

Are you sure of that? Even TJ's post doesn't say desert.

Maybe it's a bug? First post doesn't mention anything about them being in the Desert.

[Jazeki]

There have been biome glitches before.

Yeah, I think it is. I edited my post a second ago, because I noticed that my egg had magically switched to Alpine as its biome. 😅

[Whirlaway]

Unique Breed Count is still glitched...

[Crystalluna]

Is anyone else having more difficulty finding the spotted ones in the forest?

EDIT: And just as I make this post I catch one, hahaha

Anyone else notice that the pygmy's hatchling description says, "It must be nearly mature" while for every other dragons, it says, "It must be close to maturing"?

I caught that subconsciously, but it never crossed my mind that it was different.

[Whirlaway]

Got to get those ‘special dragon’ points in.

[Aalbiel]

To me less pages in release thread is because less drama x)

[StormWizard212]

Cute hatchling! I can't wait to see them mature. The pygmy is adorable.

Is the dragon with 3 different colours random or does it depend on which biome you caught it in?

We don't know for sure yet, but colour by biome is a possibility.
