Fogged egg in the wilderness

Recommended Posts

I was bored so I was searching through the wilderness when I realised that there was a fogged egg/hatchling hiding in there. How is this even possible? I thought you could only release adults/frozen hatchlings?

(I hope this is posted in the correct section, I apologise if not!)

I think I saw that too, when I clicked it it lead to the fogged egg/hatch page.

Sadly I don’t have the link, but I do remember something similar happening in the abandoned page.

It's not uncommon to find a fogged hatchie in the Wilderness. Not sure what in site mechanics is making this happen (as you're correct about only releasing fogged hatchies), but as far as we can tell they're always really old dragons so maybe something happened along the way ^^

Maybe they are relatives of Missigno

Ooh I didn't know about that but I just read it on the wiki, maybe they are!

Yeah I think I saw a different one when refreshing again. I guess it's just a glitch with the coding.

 

Thanks for the help :)

I just found one, too: https://dragcave.net/view/YKL2 The 4-digit code shows that this hatchling is several years old already.  (This one actually turned up three times during my search.)

Found another one, but that had a five-digit code, so there's no proof it's not actually a growing thing.

And another one: https://dragcave.net/view/u8cK

 

Also, if it were like Missingno, we wouldn't get the fogged page, but something like Missingno's actual view page: https://dragcave.net/view/n/missingno (Missingno is an adult dragon, so there's no harm in linking him here.)

They used to go to hatchlings that while fogged, would reveal their lineage and have the correct sprite for whatever it was. I have found a few in the past, and saved their links just because.

Going back to those links, they no longer work.

 

I'm assuming that their codes got wiped at some point in the past, but was still saved for their lineages. TJ must have cleansed the links for lineages as well.

Back in 2010 (2011?) and before, it was still possible to view the lineage of any fogged egg/hatchling if you entered the url manually. And code wiping stopped around the time we got five-digit codes.
