Posted October 18, 2019 So I've got two dragons that were part of a long, planned lineage, but today they refused each other as mates. Does this mean they will ALWAYS refuse each other as mates? Do I have to start my lineage over? Share this post Link to post
Posted October 18, 2019 Yes, unfortunately they can't breed again : D When fertility is used it decreases the changes of a refusal (on the first breeding). Share this post Link to post
Posted October 18, 2019 Drat. Oh well. Guess I'll just release these and re-do the last gen. Thanks for the reply! Share this post Link to post
Posted October 18, 2019 Don't. Keep both, but re-breed anyway. Breed the replacement with the original's mate and vice versa. This will give you two potential breeding pairs. (Also, use Fertility on new pairings to reduce the risk of refusals!) Share this post Link to post
Posted October 19, 2019 Hmm, that's a good idea. Does Fertility affect refusals? I thought it only increased chances of an egg... Share this post Link to post
Posted October 19, 2019 TJ changed it at some point so that it reduces chance of refusal. The only refusal I have had since then when using fertility on a new pair was a Turpentine dragon, which are notoriously bad breeders. And I tend to breed a lot of new pairs, so I think it really almost eliminates the chance. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 19, 2019 Huh, I didn't know that. Guess I've got reason to collect more purples now! Share this post Link to post
Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) I've found (for myself) that if I use fertility and get a no interest more than once, it was probably a refusal before fertility. If i can I switch one of the mates I have much better luck. One pair gave me no interest three times before I finally got smart. Edited October 20, 2019 by Imzadi Share this post Link to post

If I use fertility and get no interest on that first breeding it seems that they aren't ever going to be a very productive pair. If I only ever need one egg from them I usually keep breeding and will get an egg eventually. If it's a pair I hope to breed repeatedly I will try for a new mate. Share this post Link to post
