DM, what do you mean have a mouse face?- forcing you to spell Pip Squ33k that way?
I believe he’s referring to our :squeak: emoticon. Though squeek (and squeak) can be written out without that happening… gotta have the colons to make the emoticons to show up. 😉

I was looking at the first page of the hatchery for babies that are the same as mine but growing spikes or something and don’t see any. Maybe I’m just blind lol 😆 I don’t really want to kill a dragon to try to have it undead… that doesn’t make any sense to me..?
Yeah, all yours are still babies. If you check my scroll, you can see the next stages of all 4 of your dragons. All of the hatchlings on my scroll are in the adolescent stage (right before adulthood). All are frozen, except the Mint (right below the Blue Dino), so they won’t ever grow up.
You’ve got some great stuff on there… I love the pegasus in Gallery 5. Though that cheetah thing in Gallery 6 really disturbs me for some reason…. Do you name all the critters you create?

Phoenix is zoomer55. I don’t know what tasgrs is on eBay.
*pokes tasgrs* Who’re you on eBay? 🙂
is my current Silver egg, and it says something about having a metallic sheen, though I don’t think the “new” colorings make it look very metallic at all. The new Gold at least looks like it’s supposed to be shiny, while the Silver is drab and just looks like a dirty white. The babies remind me of baby birds… kinda funny lookin’, but look nice once the “feathers” (pink/blue frills) start comin’ in. I don’t think anyone in the Hatchery post has a Silver baby right now… can’t tell, 4 of them won’t load for me right now.The spotted eggs are all Dinos (blue-Triceratops, red-Stegosaurus, yellow-Brontosaurus, green-Parasaurolophus). White eggs are just white dragons, unless you mean the white with lines, then it’s Paper… or the Silver, which looks like White, but isn’t… 🙄 Nevermind the gray-shades: Silver, Gray (someone has one -Khat maybe? I can’t get ’em to load), and Stone (in my sig). I understand completely why so many people have trouble keeping them straight.
With the physical descriptions I gave, those will always apply to ALL of that particular breed. So all Blues/Water will always get spiky before growing up, all Plant/Vine will always get flowers/berries before growing up, etc. Though sometimes they go through the adolescent stage so quickly, you might not notice those changes.
I get bored easily, so I’ve saved all the pictures and practically have the descriptions memorized, so I don’t think about it much when I’m talking about one of them. I know what I’m talking about, so why aren’t you reading my mind?? 😆 😉 (actually, it’s probably safer that way…)
I can tell you what any of the dragons say, at any stage, if you’d like to know. I don’t see any point in keeping those things “secret”, since it’s really not difficult to piece it all together, assuming you’ve seen all the stages. It’s just the Undead dragons that I think should be kept a secret (though I wish someone would blab to me!); it’s obvious a dragon has to die, but I don’t want to experiment to find out exactly how death & revival needs to occur to get one.
I sincerely hope that all made sense. I can’t tell. It’s 330am. I’m gonna go finish watching The Golden Compass and go to sleep.
tatt2dcowgrl wrote:You know how you can tell an egg is hatching because it will crack and start to get a hole- is there a way to tell a baby dragon is growing up? People talk about them getting wings but I haven’t noticed the description on mine or the picture change or anything..
I believe ALL of them will mention something in the description about being bigger. But here’s what happens physically: the Mint just gets a little bigger (not very noticeable), the Dinos almost double in size (their head ridges are more prominent too), the Blue’s tail gets more spikes, the Plant gets red flower buds (berries, whatever), and the Silvers show their gender (pink/blue frills). All others grow wings (the two-headed also becomes all one shade along with the wings).
Jennifer wrote:The last batch of blanks that were shipped to me were, somewhat alarmingly, not shipped in their cardboard custom-formed boxes. One of my lap dragons shattered and I thought she was the only casualty. Unfortunately this OW has a hidden wound- he must have had a hairline fracture when he was shipped and I didn’t notice until I was done with him and wiping the antique off. Because you have to press slightly when wiping the antique off, that bit of extra pressure made the fractured spot come off like a glacier. AGHHH! Luckily it was a very small area and I was able to repair it completely. So I guess this guy isn’t mint anymore (though from looking you really can’t tell it even happened), but he is ‘as new’ and will come from the factory, so it depends on your definition of mint.
I wouldn’t even mention it but I like to be 100% honest about the work I do.
😯 How’d they get out without their forms! Yikes! I’m glad you were able to fix him!
I wouldn’t consider him “mint”, but I’d consider him to be on the same level. He was repaired by Windstone staff (you :)) prior to sale, and you’ve disclosed that fact. *shrug* Dunno ’bout others, but that’s good enough for me. My BVF OW is the same way… it’s weird to read the COA since I can’t tell where the damage was (the auction said where).Griffinlover wrote:The only one I have named is My Black Griffin Male and I named him Skandranon, leader of the gryphons in the book “The Black Gryphon” by Mercedes Lackey and Larry Dixon. This is an awesome book series that I highly recommend to everyone.
I have that book. Skandranon’s the only thing I remember. Though the whole book just annoyed the crap out of me at the time, so I didn’t get very far (I dislike names with a million apostrophes and ones I have to re-read multiple times to attempt to say in my head). It’s been a decade now, and some of my tastes have changed, so I’ll pick it up again once I’ve finished a bit more of my book list.
😯 Well, crap… how’d I miss that?? Mine has blue bits painted on his chain too. I don’t have him here, but I can see ’em in the pic I have of him.

Aww… Happy Belated!! *poke* You should tell us these things, y’know. 😀
